My fathers has been trying to get his paper together for over 8 years and no type of progress has been made to say. Not one update about it. This lawyer won’t call you to update you , you will have to do all the work to get in contact with him, he will apply for things ( or make it seem like your filing paper work) but some how they will get lost and have to re apply once more and he will continue this back and forth game until you have had enough. Only took the money but did nothing to help us. His secretary is in on the same game he is playing, and pay attention to the way he answers your questions people. If you plan to fix your papers go to an actual lawyer that will focus and help you on it. This man will take any case because he will take any money think about it

Honestly, I read the reviews I put my faith in the clients. I was disappointed to say the least, looking more thoroughly through the google reviews, I realized so many of them have the same verbiage … I find the reviews to be fake because he is nothing as described literally go to another firm if you’re facing Jail time. The firm is literally just him.

I hired Mr. Pugh for an immigration change of status case. He charged me $3,500. 00 and did nothing for weeks. I called the office and it kept sending me straight to voicemail. I left messages but they were never returned. I kept waiting solely because I paid him. I trusted him. I confided in him. He did nothing.

Definitely, will not recommend this attorney. I hired him for an immigration case. I never had a sit-down meeting with him, kept getting re-scheduled. Phone calls were never returned.

Fantastic attorney! Mr. Pugh was always straight forward and honest with me, and was even able to get me the result I was looking for.

I work for a private immigration attorney, but when my fiancé was detained with ICE I couldn't afford for my attorney to travel out of state to defend his case. I had heard good things about David through a former client and thought he would be a good idea since he was in the Chicago area. On August 25, 2018, I spoke with him regarding the details of the case, everything seemed optimistic; I paid a $1500 retainer. For 2 weeks, he had me contacting ICE officers to approve a marriage request (something an attorney should have done) and he had not entered an appearance in the case, nor spoken with my fiancé in the jail. I sent him an email asking what was going on, after 5 days his response was "let's make an appointment to discuss". When I scheduled an appointment, he would call at odd times, not the scheduled time, so I would miss the call and it would take days to contact him again. I retained David on August 25, 2018, by September 9 he still had not done anything in the case. On that date, I requested that he withdraw from the case, charge me for whatever time he had taken and return any proceeds from the retainer. It took his office almost a month to respond to that email. Then, on October 18, 2018, his paralegal Edna emailed me stating, I had a check and a letter in the mail. As of today, November 13, 2018, I still have not seen my money. They have stopped answering calls or emails. I will never recommend David for a case. I was so excited to get in touch with him after the good things I had heard from my former client, but this is NOT the way to do business. 1. Don't take a retainer for a case you have no intention to bother with. 2. Once the client requests a withdraw and refund, just refund the money. 3. Don't lie to the client and say you are returning money when you clearly are not. VERY BAD BUSINESS PRACTICES!
