Let me state this clearly: stay away from Wayne and his firm. I contacted Wayne to ask about an issue I was experiencing, and he told me he would review it and get back to me. Instead, he came up with his own solution—one that did not benefit me. When I chose not to proceed with what he wanted to do, he sent me an email with a bill. The amount charged was outrageous, totaling over $1,000. The bill included charges for reviewing information, preparing a letter to the client (opinion), telephone conferences, file work, a memo to Larry, reviewing the file and conferencing with Wayne, and a telephone conference with the client. At no point did he clearly explain that charges would begin immediately from the first phone call. He looks for—or creates—reasons to bill you. His favorite line is that he “doesn’t work for free,” yet he failed to properly inform me of his billing practices upfront. I also spoke with other lawyers, and none of them handled matters the way he did. He even threatened to send the bill to collections if payment was not made. What he is doing is not right. Do your research before speaking with him or giving him a call. Stay away. He does not deserve a one star!
