1 /5 Rodney Ingram: Still one of my biggest regrets — even five years later. I paid John $6,000 expecting a real defense. Instead, I got endless continuations, zero communication, and a level of arrogance that made it clear he thought he was doing me a favor. The case dragged on for over a year and a half, and in all that time, he did nothing that required a law degree.
For six months, I was told “We haven’t received the police report yet” — as if that justified more delays. I finally called the police department myself and got the report emailed to me in under an hour. I forwarded it to his office, but the stall tactics continued. It felt like no one was actually working on my case.
Eventually, the charge was dropped — but not in a way that cleared my name or reflected the fight I paid for. John never pushed for my innocence, and his dismissive attitude throughout made it clear I wasn’t a priority. His unprofessionalism and condescension were constant, and every conversation left me feeling disrespected and ignored.
Even after all these years, the way this case was handled still lingers with me. If you don’t have a high-profile case or a big checkbook, don’t expect anything more than delays and excuses. Save your money and find someone who actually cares.
