I hired Mr. Bugge to defend my son in a deportation matter in April of this year. I paid him in full within the first 2 weeks. During this time he communicated with me and talked a good game. As soon as he was paid in full, communication went from sparse to non existant.
He failed to prepare for the case, despite being given multiple opportunities by the judge. My son was ordered deported, and I heard this information from ICE's 800#.
He did not show up at the last hearing and the case went to appeal, which we did not want. This only means more time at that 5 star hotel in Glades and more money for the lawyer to do absolutely nothing.
The order was given on 1st October; it is now the 16th and he said he has no information for me. Do not hire this attorney. You will only regret it.
I regret that decision everyday. He has ripped my son from his children because of negligence.
