Cole created business contracts for me. They were complex. He was thorough, reviewed every part with me, let me revise them (many times), and thought of things to include that I never thought of. His fees to be reasonable and fair, especially for the quality of work. He was upfront about the pricing and sent a statement every month that showed what my retainer went to.

Cole has been my lawyer for years and I have always found him to be honest, hardworking, polite, and caring. He explains things in a way that I can understand. He has handled many different cases for me, my husband, and my business, and always does a great job.

Hired Attorney

While researching attorneys I came across publicly available information that raised serious concerns for me based on what I found I ultimately decided not to move forward with this lawyer I recommend that anyone considering legal representation do their own research as well. On April 20th 2014 he was arrested for reckless driving failure to give right away to an emergency vehicle and operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol and drugs ect. Total disregard for the law!!!

BEWARE!! I hired Cole for Legal Services. For over two years and more than $22,000.00. The file demonstrates that I was billed for many hours of Attorney time for work that was never been performed and for work that was not authorized by me. The court was satisfied 3 different times for over a year to answer to discovery requests. The court finds that I failed to answer to discovery. Cole failed which I payed him to do. I wasn't aware until I was court ordered. Cole becoming aggressive and hostile, calling me names and using otherwise abusive language at me. I told Cole from the beginning that I wanted to be notified of every court date. I see why Cole did not inform me of all the court dates.On which Motion to Compel and a Motion to deem Requests for Admission admitted would be heard. Deemed admitted because Cole didn't do what I payed him for. I just recently learned that Cole also took steps to undermine my position in the Civil Litigation that were not authorized by me.
