Hired Law Firm

Contacted this firm, over a month ago. At first, they seemed eager to help me. But. After 25 phone calls, 10 emails, 10 voicemails, and leaving messages with different people at the firm, they ignored me, would not return phone messages or emails. I would NOT ever give this firm any of my or friends and family's business. Find someone better. Responsive---joke! Helpful--joke! You'd be better off hiring a goat to do your work.

awful, rude, ignorant, I could go on and on after dealing with him for almost a year- prior to trying to reach him with no response back EVER for more than 6 mos!! Rude and arrogant and criminal himself, lied under oath, if you are a criminal you may want to have consult with him, otherwise he doesn't have any interest in the good honest law abiding citizens.

Ben Visnic which I can assume other review is probably about as well- since I read it and feel the exact same!! I agree completely he was rude and just wrong- Ben Visnic ignored me after multiple calls and then lied to me multiple times- when showed proof he came up with another lie ( under oath even!) how and why does this continue BEWARE of Ben V
