Kaplan and Associates

Anonymous

After the first consultation, Mr. Kaplan told me to undertake my case with a $5,000 retainer.  We agreed on a $2,500 drop and $500 on one trial. I received $3,500 out of $5,000 first. The following three meetings were held over six weeks.  Before investigating the case at the first meeting, I gave my lawyer a box of all my case files to Kaplan.  Mr. Kaplan told me that the office would make copies and return the files to me, but that never happened.  At the second meeting, I discussed the details of the incident and I informed the lawyer Capran about his misconduct with the previous lawyer. Mr. Kaplan urged me to file a suit against him with ARDC. I thought I had a good start with this.  The third visit was two days before the trial, but I was a little nervous because Mr. Kaplan noticed that he had not taken notes, and that the file had not moved yet.  He said that it was not necessary to know the facts of the case, since he was only in court. He makes a request for change of lawyer with his appearance. Continue.  Three weeks after the trial, when I met in his office for the fourth time, I noticed that the box containing my case file was not yet moved from the place he put first. If you listen to a copy of the file, you will be asked to answer to go see it on the weekend. It didn't happen.  I called him, but he was scheduled to meet us again a week before the trial. When I arrived at his office, I found my file had been moved to another corner of his office, but this time I found other boxes and clothes on my box. I'm very nervous, when I asked if copies are still being made?  "The secretary left the office throughout the week and the temporary staff were making copies," he said.  During this visit he found that he had not gone with his previous lawyer to get the notes and studies necessary to carry out his case.  It was the first time that I saw my case through the clerk of the court's on line portal.

Every time I meet, I went around everything at the last meeting and had a positive strategy. Prior to the trial, he contacted him and threatened him with a lawsuit in order to receive a letter from his previous lawyer.

The date of the second court has arrived, and the Prosecutor's Plan has not appeared! !! By the way, he did not bother to let me know that he would send another lawyer from the office to represent me, who was quite ignorant of my case. Two weeks later, I was able to call Kaplan, a lawyer, by telephone.  According to his proposal, I extended my appeal to "handle my case longer" and

I suddenly decided to drop in at his office to ask for an update.  When he met me, he answered, "If you put off $25,000 or promise $5,000 a month, you will pay the necessary attention to my case."  Until then, I should continue to settle the matter.  I left his office and began to study more.  He asked "My subrogation rights" and "Is there a possibility that my debt has become a two-way one?"  He said that the choice did not apply to my case. Later, I found that both options are a clear solution for me. After

5 unconstructive meetings and two non-courtrooms, I called the lawyer Kaplan on September 25, 2015 and ended his mission.  When I went to his office to get my files a week later, the lawyer Kaplan told me that he had received a file from his former lawyer "turned away and disappeared." I could not believe he had handed back the file of my case to the previous lawyer.  He also informed me that I could not make a copy of my file. I told him that I was very upset and he didn't follow the protocol, so I never felt comfortable.  He said he would call me to another lawyer and ask me not to report ARDC. Why don't you put him on public trial?
