Report
These lawyers told me they would help and dropped my case after wasting my time and energy for two years. They did nothing to help me at all. They told me my chronic pain wasn't enough to win multi million dollars so they dropped me after the two year mark making it impossible for me to get another lawyer. These are the worst kinds of people.
