Rahaim Saints & Walstrom, LLP

Extremely , for poor attitude and results! I paid 5,000 .00 and DID not get half the results I deserved. This is for Rahaim. He responded to my husband better than I. He did not explain half of what was going to happen . Apparently I was not a top priority case for him.. ,but my case was !! He was very last minute, we did a lot of the leg work ourselves. Then, no explanation of what was going to happen after final court date.. let's just say , it's been a 2 year ordeal, and I'm still paying the price of this nightmare. The only reason I took him , was because 3 other top lawyers I wanted , we're not accepting new clients. Thus referred to this lawyer. . Seriously think twice , before taking him on.. at least go in for a free consultation. Maybe u will have better luck as a man. The only thing he did , was get my plea bargin down. I could have done that with a public defender. haha. I wish you the best of luck. Remember, most places have free consults. Best wishes
