Pros
1
The lawyer is knowledgeable about the court system and thoroughly prepared the client's appeal, leading to a successful outcome
“Thoroughly prepared my Appeal and won having my sentence overturned. Very knowledgable with the court system.”
2
The lawyer's paralegal was supportive and effective at keeping the client informed
“Paralegal was very supportive, and good at keeping us in the loop.”
Cons
1
The lawyer is not honest, gives false hopes, and fails to actively work on the client's case
“This lawyer is not honest, gives up false hopes and lies when telling you he is actively working on your case.”
2
The lawyer is unresponsive and takes a long time to get back to the client
“We had to constantly call to find out any progress on our case defense and it would take over a week to get a call back.”
3
The lawyer's work product is of poor quality, with numerous typos and a lack of follow-through on suggested arguments
“All legal documents produced by him or his paralegal were riddled with typos. We literally built our own defense suggesting valid arguments based on the facts and our own research.”
4
The lawyer appears disinterested in the client's case and does not have their best interests in mind
“When a lawyer sits across from you while waiting for your verdict, and tells you it is a slam dunk and you know you will lose the case after witnessing his terrible performance, it is too late for you to do anything about it.”
5
The lawyer failed to inform the client that the specific crime they were charged with was not eligible for parole, wasting the client's time and money
“Further, with the exception of one time and by his assistant about a week after hiring him, I did not receive one return phone call, only a copy of the letter from the parole board saying that armed robbery was not eligible for parole with a brief letter from Attorney Stokes that basically said, 'here is the parole board's response...'”
