Litigant

Comment #: NJ4740
Rating:2.0
Comments:
Did not listen to our experts, dismissive, had pre-formed ideas and insisted on his 'solution' despite much documentation on other suitable alternatives. Arrogant. Not receptive to the experts' solutions. Released an angry minor to parents w/ no warning (despite pleas not to do this). It did not go well. AVOID this judge if at ALL possible.

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: NJ3567
Rating:9.0
Comments:
Have been in front of this judge on many occasions and he is very stern in maintaining order and protocol in his courtroom, but always fair in his rulings. I have the utmost respect for him and have never walked out of his courtroom questioning his ruling- instead, he always has done what I perceive as the right thing in accordance with the law- even when it is against my client.

Comments:
Extremely erratic and unprofessional on the bench. Can't control his emotions and has uncontrolled outbursts. Very ego based. Manipulates his decisions around the law based on whether he likes you or not. Should not be a judge at all.
