Jonathan Stein - Denver, CO

A WASTE OF TIME AND $$. We had an initial consultation with Jonathan Stein. My girlfriend was hesitant to hire an attorney but I finally convinced her to do so. One month later we had our first real meeting with Stein and he was TOTALLY UNPREPARED. He had not looked over the two documents I sent (one I sent nearly 2 weeks before the meeting and the other 5 days before our meeting) nor had he read an email explaining where things stood that I had sent 2 days before our meeting. An experienced lawyer could have read and processed this email in less than 10 minutes. He did not recall a very critical detail we had discussed in the initial consultation. I have to presume Stein does not take notes. Stein was so LOST we ended the meeting after 16 minutes. He stated in the meeting he was just opening up the documents at the time of our meeting. Then my girlfriend received a bill for over $500 for the meeting and the firm's work to receive and save the 2 documents I sent. They charge over $30 PER DOCUMENT. They had also sent a bill for over $100 for sending us an email requesting we send the 2 documents requested at the initial consultation before we had actually decided to move forward. I complained and they did refund the $500+ for the DISASTROUS meeting. I would rather have gotten competent representation from the start rather than deal with this aggravation.
