Hired Attorney Adam Walter Ferguson

He is a nice man but did not provide the expected service he was hired for. He seemed to be intimidated by an opposing attorney, perhaps too inexperienced. He did show up for a court date. He did not know a settlement document was not signed. Myself and another family member had the need for additional legal services but have decided not to use him. He lost two additional jobs because of his poor handling of the original case. He has also lost the potential of any additional recommendations.
