Hired Attorney Mr. Zachary Burkhalter

Consistently lied to me, put off scheduled court hearing for personal vacation and contacted opposing attorney saying I was ok with it when I didn't even know about his vacation taking precedence. When it came to the end he essentially told me to settle or pay expenses now knowing everything I had was tied up in the probate. I had to settle, then he didn't hold up his agreement on charging less money cause he basically got me nothing and tried to make me feel like the bad guy for being upset.
