Cons
1
Inconsistent communication and follow-up with clients
“I'm not sure why he is in practice? It just goes to show that you don't have to have a passion or education for what you do in today's society. He is unprofessional to say the least. You'll be begging him to provide you with updates and to stay on top of the job because he seems to have better things to do.”
2
Failure to properly prepare for cases and effectively represent clients
“He didn't even subpoena the police officer to court. The officer even had body cam footage that there was not any reports of assault. I called the police to ask the landlord to stop coming to my door and banging on the door. A week later the landlord said I hit her. Yet she never told the officer that same day I called the police. I had to move within 15 minutes based on a false TPO accusation. I could have represented myself.”
3
Lack of attention to detail and organization in legal filings
“We were shocked that our filing was handwritten and not typed. It wasn't even easy to read as I would categorize it as chicken scratch.”
4
Rudeness and unwillingness to listen to client concerns
“He literally gave me his opinion then hung up on me. Glad I didn't trust them to handle my situation.”
5
Potentially representing opposing interests against client's best interests
“It appears as if the HOA Board was Mr. Carlton's client, not me. He seemed to fawn over the HOA President as such a truthful witness.”
