Hired Attorney Matthew Karim

Just like the last review, Matt Karim has been the WORST attorney I’ve ever known. Took my several thousand Dallas retainer , to only leave the county the following days so he & wife coukd attend his buddies wedding in Scotland. We took my retainer & left the county. I coukd not speak w him because of unstable internet ( so he said) & his crook paralegal, Mr. Ron Humphries. I sent him numerous emails w proof for my case . His very late response a month later lieing to me telling me it too late. So let me ask you , why did he take my case if he couldn’t help me To take &60000, 00 retainer & not be available til the day before next hearing. He is NOT an arty you can trust. He is working with the other side which I have confronted him with & he denies. He lies. Don’t waste your time or money w this crooked attorney.

Hired Attorney Matthew Karim

Example of poor professional service. Couldn't even get his more than valid case to court trial by jury. Case No. 3:23-cv-00929-TJC-LLL Florida Middle District, Jacksonville division. Eric Hall Vs. Sheriff Scotty Rhoden et al Pay very close attention to the Judges comments Docket 41 I do not know why the court did not charge him for contempt, after he repeatidly ignored his duties to the court and to the client. No discovery participation, no submitting of evidence, no response to court orders, no objections, no presentation of case. I think he is a man who will partner in collusion with the opposing parties. Matthew may have received compensation to blantly lose the case not to go to a trial by jury courtroom. He had no moral value to protect his client. Negligent, and dishonorable, deserves the malpractice suit he will soon be facing. And i stand behind every word i have written in this review, it is my declaration of the man, Matthew Zaheer Karim Esquire

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
