He isn't even representing my cousin in his appeal. I guess we need 20k. My cousin could make that in 2 months if he could go back to work. Smh

Please do not ever use him or go to him for a consultation. He took $280 from me for a one hour consultation and didn't even have the decency to return my calls as to whether or not he could help me with my case. I just never heard from him again after he charged me $280! He could have at least called me back and said a simple "I'm unable to help you" and that could have been it.

I tried to set up a paid consultation after giving his secretary the information regarding our case. After several calls, I gave up. His website says he practices education law but I can't get an answer regarding whether he will represent a parent and child against a school district that has refused for 4 years to address bullying against my daughter. He won't even send me an email. I don't understand his refusal to allow me to PAY him for a consultation.

Most unprofessional attorney I have ever come across. I have a case for him that mirrors one he already has ongoing. Wanted to talk to him about representing us. Six (6) messages and voice mails and he doesn't have the decency to call back. His office staff said they are disgusted as well in his unprofessionalism, because they are bearing the brunt of the client complaints. They say he is at the office and they transfer the call. He lets it go to voice mail and then never calls back.

I am giving a one-star review because Mr. Henter and/or his office did not respond to my requests for representation three times, even after I paid for an initial half-hour consultation. It's sad because I honestly am pretty sure the advice he gave me was correct and useful, since I have done more research. And his specialty aligned by far the best with my case specifically compared to other lawyers. Since no other lawyers are willing to represent me, I will be representing myself in court soon. I wish that I wouldn't have been delayed, however by simply not getting a response.
