Review of Usman Law Firm

I honestly don't understand all these rave reviews...

I honestly don't understand all these rave reviews; I was treated horribly and with such disprespect. Mr. Usman must only be "nice" to the people whose cases he knows he will win.

When I first got to his office I was pointed at to wait out in the hallway while he was on a phone call. I could hear his conversation monologue clearly; he was on a personal call (of a non-urgent nature), while I waited an extra 10 minutes past my appointment time. Once he was finished he gestured with his hand for me to come in; no apologies given. Very unprofessional and inconsiderate of my time.

He ran through the series of questions with abruptness; almost like I was wasting his time. He fumbled on his words, made assumptions as he talked that I had to correct him on, and told me that there were something's that I would have to work on (of which I understood) before he could take the case. He ended the conversation with "keep on trucking".

Now I am not asking him for a hug, nor to be my BFF, and I am not in denial of my situation, but I do think he should be a teeny but compassionate and/or empathetic to those of us walking through his door. Instead he was rude, unprofessional, inconsiderate, disrespectful and made me feel two inches tall.

12 minutes earlier I swallowed my pride as I walked into his office; I left there several feet shorter, my tail between my legs, and less hope for my future.

Thank you, Mr. Usman, you made me feel worse than I had felt during all the years I had been struggling to pick up the pieces for my kids and I after a turbulent divorce. All you looked like to me was some pompous ass Attorney with a chip on his shoulder.
