George E Enstrom Law Offices

I know several people who have been represented by Attorney Enstrom and the concensus is not very good. Mr Enstom is a very slow attourney. He takes forever to answer phone calls, file papers with the courts, and even agreements to settle things out of the courtroom. When I called him to ask if he could represent me on a ticket I receved he took more than to weekes to return my call, When he finally did call me he asked what the ticket was for and when I tld him said that I should just plead guilty and that a case like this would waste his time and the courts time. When I tried to explain the curcomstances behind me getting the ticket and why I wanted to fight the ticket he repeatedly interupted me and when for an appointment to meet with him refused saying once again it would be a waste of everybodys time and hung up on me. I have a good friend whom he represented concering custody and placement of a child. When the childs mother kicked him out of her house she said that she was going to sign away all rights IF it was taken care of with two weeks. Mr. Enstrom was notified right away and it took several personal trips to his office and numerous phone calls (which he never once returned) over the span of 4 weeks to even get him to draw up the paper work then it took hime another week to mail the paperwork to the childs mother. She sent it back right away. He then called my friend to his office and told him that he would have to pay the bill for his time and efforts before he would pass on the papers to the judge to make it offical. The money got paid two days later and one month later he recived a copy of the signed paperwork which was signed bu the judge 4 days before he recieved. Along with the letter he recieved a bill for court costs and more time that he supposedly spent on the case. Needless to say he now has another lawyer. I'm not sure of this lawyers hourly rates but I do kow that the people I know said that he is very expensive and likes to draw out simple cases as long as possible to make more money. The only good thing anyone has had to say about him is that when he funaly makes into the court room he's great at his job. i'ts just out of the court room that he moves slow and doesn't do a very good job as a lawyer.
