Client
I hired Joe to help me get off pretrial and get a new bond and terms. Somewhere in the mix of being picked up and held with no bond and no way to communicate with him he put a motion to appear and become my lawyer. I never once asked for him to handle my case nor did he listen really to our conversation. I'm not a lawyer but I do understand from 20 years experience that you yourself can draft up and prepare and file every motion that the lawyer can and I know the law and my rights and the terminology for the protocol of a "Terry stop". I do like a cocky arrogant lawyer that's forsure but it did take me 100 days to finally get Joe into the jail to talk to me. At that point I was really upset and was on the verge of saying I no longer trust you but during our meeting we finally came to an understanding after we cut eachother of 10 or more times. He said he knows what I want and that I understand you and just give me a little ammunition if I need it and I did. The very next day within 24hours my case was dismissed and I was released. Why it took 3 months is a mystery to me. Lee county got 100 days out of me for nothing and a ridiculously rigorous pretrial scheme of b.s. just set up to get you to violate. Having to pay or post your bond and be on pretrial is a scam and a setup. For the most part I am happy with Joe and accept the way he works. If you don't like it that's your problem not Joe's. Thanks
