"Working with Mr. Banner was amazing (given the circumstances) I felt like the experience left me better equipped to protect myself in the future. I liked how much he paid attention to every detail. Highly recommend him from criminal defense."

"Not so great experience with that Garet Holland "attorney. " Since he was hired last November he spent approximately 11 hours on my case, rarely bothered to communicate, and couldn't answer the most basic questions about my case. After dealing with this for 10 months, he decides he wants to withdraw out of the blue. Tried to blame it on us not agreeing. Sure, OK. I didn't feel like he was in my corner at all so I was totally fine with the withdrawal, actually wished he had sooner but since I have to find a new attorney I'll need my money back because he didn't do much of anything really. He sends me an itemized bill. The bill was for 32 hours, 11 hours of work... 21 hours for text messages. This guy barely even responded to texts the entire 10 months, no joke. He didn't even bother to come to the hearings. I think he came to about 2 out of 7 of them. I rarely knew who i would be meeting there or what we were doing. I'm going to file a complaint with the bar, i don't expect a whole lot out of that, I just want it to go on record. This man took advantage of my situation and managed to make things worse than when they started."
