Avoid Ryan as your lawyer at all costs. My boyfriend hired Ryan awhile back because he was pressed…read morefor time and no other lawyers were available. Ryan did not care about even trying to provide him with competent legal representation, and actually advised him to just settle out of court. We have talked to other lawyers since then to see if anything can be done, and have basically been told that settling was a mistake. I would suggest avoiding Ryan or at least getting a second opinion if you can.

My experience with Ryan has been awful to say the least. He failed to report prosecutorial…read moremisconduct to the courts/judge (prosecutor lied and made false statements) he told me the prosecutor is allowed to do so and that it was perfectly legal. He failed to go over the discovery with me. I was instructed to go over it for myself at his office computer. I had no idea what I was doing and expressed how dissatisfied I was with the process. Instead of going over the discovery with me he just kept telling me he saw the discovery/ evidence and that it had so much evidence against me. But yet he still would not take the time to go over the discovery with me. Then comes the sentencing aspect of my case. I got an email from him 2 weeks before my sentencing saying that we should meet to get ready for sentencing. He said he couldn't meet in person that it had to be a phone call meeting. So I called him and he started telling me that he submitted a sentencing memorandum already! He did not talk to me about it, he did not consult with me and it was already in the books! In the weeks/months leading up to sentencing he never explained what a sentencing memorandum was nor how important they can be to a persons case/sentencing. He also did not tell me there was a deadline on when it was due. He told me several months prior that he would send me a template to get character letters ready for the judge. I did not receive that template or any instructions until after my memorandum was already submitted (without my approval). Not only was my memorandum inefficient but it had a false statement that he put on the memorandum. He had zero supporting documents and left out extremely important facts and medical records from my memorandum. After expressing how dissatisfied I was with his memorandum and his legal work in general he sent me an email claiming that he requested my medical records several times over the course of several months, and that I never had them sent to him, which was untrue. I indeed did have my medical records sent to him several months prior! 8 months to be exact! I advise anyone who needs serious legal counsel to consider my experience before hiring Ryan and his legal team.

I met with Joel the next day and was impressed with not only his knowledge of the law but also what struck me is that he seemed to really care about me as a person. He kept me very informed as the process went along and always responded very quickly to any questions I had. Joel seems to be very well respected in the court system and was able to work out a plea agreement that was better than I had dared hope. And on the day of my sentencing I was again impressed with the questions he asked me that indicated that he cared about me as a person and not just a client. I would recommend Joel to anyone who needs the help of a good and caring attorney!
