EDITOR’S COMMENT(1/18/2021): Ripoff Report strongly believes in the First Amendment, especially when consumers are truthfully warning other consumers about potential frauds, scams, rip-offs or the like by shady individuals or businesses. Ripoff Report is by consumers, for consumers…and we want to keep it that way! Unfortunately this Report was posted and, upon additional information, appears to have been primarily for the purpose of bullying or harassment. In many instances Ripoff Report will reach out to the author of the Report to obtain further information. In other instances, enough information is provided to Ripoff Report to warrant redactions without reaching out to the author. Ripoff Report is working to combat tactics that are perceived to be cyberharassment, cyberstalking, cyberbullying and/or what is generally considered a “revenge post” as we do not condone such behavior.
The Report was brought to our attention and, upon review of compiled information (which will be done on a case by case basis without any obligation as resources allow), and at Ripoff Report’s sole discretion, information that did not conform to current policies and/or the identifying information relating to the individual(s) and/or business(es) named in this “Report” and any subsequent comments thereto have been editorially redacted as indicated by the following “(((REDACTED)))” or (((REDACTED DUE TO PERCEIVED HARASSMENT / REVENGE POST)))”.
CONSUMERS: Be kind. Keep it honest. Keep it fair. Stick to the facts. Do your research. Keep the dirty laundry in the laundry hamper…not on Ripoff Report.
PLEASED TO SEE SUCH EFFORTS? YOU CAN HELP RIPOFF REPORT COMBAT THESE TYPES OF ISSUES: Ripoff Report, as resources allow, is working towards combatting Cyberharassment, Cyberstalking, Cyberbullying and/or other problems such as what is generically called “revenge posts” that can be riddled with personal commentary and/or allegations that can be serious. Ripoff Report would love to be able to timely address each and every review request we receive, however, this takes resources.

NOW TO THE EDITORIALLY REDACTED POSTING(S):
My grandmother went into the law firm to find a lawyer to change her will, and fix her properties paperwork, and set everything straight. (((REDACTED))) told her he would do this on the side and not through the firm so she would be able to do this for less. My grandma agreed and handed him over a $20,000 USD deposit in money order as he asked. She handed him over all the paperwork he asked to fix all the issues and told him what he wanted her will to be but never received any paperwork back.
He called her a few weeks later to ask for more money to close the matter and she handed him over another 10k, again, money order as he asked. He told her all matters were settled but gave her no paperwork to confirm this. My grandmother then returned to his office and she said that he tried to sleep with her in his office. She left and contacted me. When I found out about this I was shocked that my grandmother had done this and did not trust (((REDACTED))) because he sounded like a creep. I investigated in to her properties and her will and everything was the same as before he was hired.
I also suspect that he was waiting for my grandmother to get really close to dying before making some strange sketchy move to rip us off. I have, since finding out that (((REDACTED))) scammed my grandmother, tried to contact him every day to get my grandmother's money back and he denies ever having any contact with her as he never gave her any receipts, and no moves were made legally. Now when I call him, as soon as he recognizes my voice he hangs up. I tried to report him to the State Bar California, but they asked me for proof of payments but he never gave my grandmother any.
I want to warn everybody to stay as far away from him as you can! and warn everybody you know, your grandmother could be next!
