Extremely Dissatisfied with Michael’s Conduct as an Attorney
First and foremost, during our initial meeting, Michael provided me with an expectation for my case that is very different from the conclusion he is currently suggesting. Also, he sets certain dates for filing certain papers However, when I followed up with him, he unexpectedly demanded that I replenish the retainer much earlier than we had agreed upon to justify him not doing what he said will do.
But what truly baffled me was the attorney's constant attempts to play mind games throughout the conversation . Whenever I questioned him or held him accountable for failing to fulfill his own words, he would adopt an arrogant and condescending tone. Such behavior not only undermined our professional relationship but also made me question his integrity as an attorney,
In conclusion, I must emphasize that this attorney's conduct is very manipulative and arrogant.

Very quick and efficient work handled for me. I can’t thank you enough for walking me through the process and making it as simple as possible for me. When it comes to law I don’t know much and gave my trust to Mr Walker which in turn resolved my issues. Thank you again. Strongly recommend using his services and I will now use him for all of mine.
