He is the attorney for someone who is suing me now in 2021. He called my house tried to blackmail me into selling a house and threathened me for 45 minutes. I have legal documents to back up everything that prove his client is lieing. We get in front of the judge and he claims I called him and threathened him and he has it on tape. Yet he refuse to play the tape. How fid this POS ever get his law license back. He also twisted the wording of 3 different laws to suit his needs. What bully and joke this guy is.
