Comments

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: CA1516
Rating:7.5

Comments:
He reads the papers and is willing to consider argument. He is willing to assist the parties with settlement negotiations. He did not appear to favor one side over the other.

Criminal Defense Lawyer

Comment #: CA144
Rating:1.8

Comments:
A C- lawyer who got appointed to the bench through political pull. Mean, nasty and vindictive with a dislike for criminal defendants and their lawyers.
