Mr. Robert Mintz, a lawyer from Newark, NJ was retained for services. Due to my delicate emotional state at the time he made statements as "he knows people and would make it go away" to get my business and have me sign the retainer. During the process of next few years, he did not appear to know the facts straight, would rely on his junior counsel to update him on the case. He would try to schedule frequent office appointments with no specifics to discuss (only for the sole purpose to bill client) and only for general small talk. After charging $130,000 and when I could not afford to pay him anymore he abandoned and dropped me from the case. He took advantage of my emotional distress and when I had difficulty paying him more, he would repeat phrases like, "you need to keep in mind, I will be keeping you out of jail". He did not care about me or the facts of my case, he simply wanted all my money. In my opinion all his billing was inappropriate (e.g billed for having lunch with his junior lawyer.... apparently he discussed my case....... really!!). I would never recommend him as a lawyer.

He was hired by my friends family for a potential criminal case. He mislead them and over a year charged them over $140K dollars and didn't do anything productive. Many times he had no clue what was going on in the case and had to ask his junior assistant for answers, and appeared under influence of something. Before the real case even started, and when took away all the money and my friend couldnot pay him anymore, he dropped out of the case and left my friend hanging.
