Malcolm is an ego maniac and trying to take on too many clients. I hired him for a serious but exaggerated charge. He charged me a $15,000 retainer up front and proceeded to do absolutely nothing for me. He was completely unfamiliar with my case and consistently late for court (more than 30 minutes late on more than one occasion). Even the judge admonished him at one point about always being late and having too many clients. When I expressed my concerns he would say condescending things like "Take a deep breath." or "It's not a big deal." It was a huge deal for me, he had $15,000 of mine and he could care less. Flippant would be a good term.
After months in court he had done absolutely nothing to improve my situation.
I fired him and hired James Davis. James charged me WAY less than Malcolm and solved my legal troubles in about a month.
I have since seen Malcolm out and about in Jacksonville Beach on numerous occasions. He is always hammered drunk and bellied up to a bar with a liquor drink in hand. He smiles and asks where he knows me from, as if we are old pals.
Don't trust this clown with your future. Hire a real defense attorney. However if you have a traffic ticket, I hear he is pretty good. Perhaps he should stay in traffic court permanently and let professionals handle serious cases.
