"Salvatore threatened my grandmother with litigation if I didn't remove a negative review after providing terrible council. She passed, so I can finally honestly review him without him making her fear that she'll lose everything for something she had nothing to do with. Shame, people like this shouldn't be allowed near our legal system."

"Mr. Morten only cares to take on what he deems as “easy” cases. do not waste your time with a consultation fee on this man. Because that is all that he is wanting. as it’s not even a guarantee he will take on your case. he is also very judgemental and has no compassion or empathy towards a person’s legal matters even though he himself would admit he himself has never been through what you are going through. A great attorney is able to take on any case. I know now what kind of attorney Mr. Morten is. He also likes to keep your legal papers for no reason."

"It’s been a long time; years later and I’m looking back to the way I was treated as a young man seeking help from out of state, and still hurts to think about the situation I faced feeling scared and alone. We managed to work through it but I don’t feel that they really fault for me and my rights and for me to still be thinking about it till this day hurts."
