-In August 2022, I retained Andrew Gorman for an estate matter. Shortly after, he became disinterested and unresponsive. It became increasingly difficult to schedule meetings with him; and meetings that were scheduled, were often missed or postponed. During the meetings that were actually held, I found myself routinely having to cover ground with him that was previously discussed, causing unnecessary delays and expense to me. Andrew also routinely missed deadlines that he set for himself to complete on my behalf. By December, Andrew was unresponsive for four weeks after missing another deadline, at which point I decided to terminate his representation of me. In doing so, I asked for a final accounting of charges against my retainer. In seeking a final accounting Andrew provided me with two different billing amounts against a substantial retainer that I had posted. This dispute over billing required intervention by the Arizona Bar Association and took approximately 8 months to resolve. I felt that Andrew’s representation of me was extremely inefficient due to the fact that I found myself repeatedly having to reschedule meetings that he missed; remind him of the basic details of my case; and enduring needless delays stemming from a lack of follow through on his part to do what he said he would do. My overall experience with Andrew was poor at best.
