Retained this attorney to handle what he described as a simple matter. After spending a ton of money, after being told it should be very inexpensive, I was in no better position then when I started. Basically, this lawyer will bill you dry and get no results. I later learned that was his reputation in the community and I should have stayed away. Hope you read this and stay away from him. He is the reason lawyers have a bad rap.
If you are looking for an unethical Sarasota attorney who is willing to destroy client records to protect them from a state investigation you have your attorney. After his client was served with a subpoena by family members seeking records, he had the documents destroyed and immediately sought to quash the subpoena. In court, Attorney James Essenson described the requesting party as “crazy” and his subpoena for guardianship records as “harassment.” Once the court ordered them produced, since he had them all destroyed, there was nothing to produce. Wonder why Florida lawyers have such a bad reputation? Perfect example of dishonest. Stay away unless you are a dirt bag client.
If you look for an unethical Sarasota lawyer you found him in James Essenson Attorney. No problem lieing to Judge or Court, filing false documents or over charging his clients. His fee agreement required a non-refundable $10,000 payment. When I fired him he wont return any amount even though spent less than 2 hour on case. Do not use him ever.
