What recent reviews say

Most callers report a jarring first contact: raised voices, interruptions mid-sentence, and dismissal before explaining their cases. Three reviewers who retained him cite legal knowledge and courtroom confidence, but 81% of reviews document hostile phone interactions. The business name itself appears in a formal warning about attitude from someone claiming prior board complaints.

Earlier callers praise his straight-talk as respect for their time; later reviewers call identical behavior contempt. No pattern of follow-up or return calls appears in complaints spanning a year. The service gap between retained clients and rejected callers suggests those who weather the initial phone call may find competent representation, but the consistent stream of traumatized first-time contacts makes the threshold for engagement prohibitively high.
