Less & Weaver

I engaged this firm to defend a suit.
The attorney Lawrence Less mishandled the case: The case was a trespass and not an easement. Homeowners would have picked up the claim 100% for trespass but not easements. Attorney Less couldn’t figure that the action in the case was a trespass and so didn’t tender the claim to HO. Instead, he racked up a wopping $ 9,000 + legal bill not only did he not figure out a defense, got the action wrong, and didn’t put in a counterclaim.
As the bills mounted, and his strategy for the case got more and more crazy — meaning would cost more and more money: We spoked with another real estate attorney who said this sounded like a trespass and he told us to just call our home owners and talk to the lawyers there.
Presto, home owners picked it up completely. Lawrence Less could have done all that instead of wasting our money.
He also didn’t file any counter claims when we had a valid counter claim that could have set off the claim 100%.
For real estate lawyers, maybe the Weaver attorney is a bit better in his law firm, but Lawrence is a douche. His personality also sucks. He put his billable hours in front of what was right for us.
