Tommy’s 2^nd bite at the Attorney Misfit Apple Tree

• Neglected client matters
• Made numerous misrepresentations [lied] to the court
• Failed to communicate with clients
• Failed to appear at court scheduled hearings

As one would suspect, Tommy fails to mention the aforementioned misconduct on his self-serving website at www.tomjameslaw.com. Apparently, Tommy decided to conceal this highly relevant information from prospective clients for the purpose of not limiting his future victim pool.
