Joseph Trevino is a useless legal aid. He handle a minor possession charge for me. We agreed he would arrange for me to attend a diversion program and upon completion my record would be expunged. When my day in court came he was tardy, when they called my case I had to flag him down to get his attention to come in to the court room and litigate on my behalf. My friend and I faced the same charges we were together when the initial incident occurred. Why she was able to receive the same consequence I received with no legal was interesting. This put me under the impression that my consequence was standard and that with or without Joseph Useless Trevino I would have had the same option. Once I completed the program, I contacted Mr.Trevino to assist with the process of expunging my record. This man felt as though he should be paid in addition to the initial payment. I was under the impression that he would automatically file the paperwork because that was the actual work that was required. We exchanged some words, Trevino became very loud and unruly. He began to insinuate how he did me a favor because he was contracted through a legal aid service . Joseph expressed that he didn't need my measly $500, so I of course asked for a refund. Trevino rudely agreed, abruptly hung up the phone and then a week later sent me the paper work to file my own process to expunge. Apparently this simple routine procedure was to much for Joseph to take on or once he got paid he was not obligated to follow through. I am not to sure what his reasoning was but from my experience Mr.Trevino is not a man on his word, he has minimal ethics and is extremely temperamental. I would not recommend Joseph Trevino to anyone seeking legal counsel. You will probably either end up BROKE or in JAIL!

My retainer with Trevino is dated June 10, 1995, Case No. 95-14865, for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. The retainer agreement stated that Trevino would "prepare a bankruptcy plan, provide financial advice, and deal directly with the creditors." Preparing a bankruptcy plan was a matter of accepting without question the 1st trust's terms. Providing financial advice was a matter of allowing me, his client, to waste $21,000 in the bankruptcy plan from the fall of 1995 to the fall of 1996 then to abandon me, his client, to the 1st trust's demands. Dealing directly with the creditors was a matter of going to secret meetings to which I, his client, was not invited and of which I, his client, was not informed and making secret deals the terms of which I, his client, was also not informed. I had to discover those terms on my own from the court. The 1st trust represented the escrow deficit in the bankruptcy plan as $2455 but demanded $361.67 per month in the plan. The $361.67 is $4340/year. The property taxes prior to 1995 had been $1700-$1800 per year. The homeowner's tax credit reduced the taxes in 1995 to $603 and in 1996 to $887. The insurance was $305. That was $75/mo and $100/mo. required for the escrow account, much less than the $361.67 demanded. Trevino repeatedly gave the mortgage lender over my protests the $361.67 demanded. The mortgage lender had collected for the escrow account $23/mo. thru all of 1992 and $68/mo. in 1993. The real deficit was more like $4500 not $2455. Trevino failed to discover and explain to me, his client, that the mortgage lender had completely mismanaged the escrow account over the previous five years and created the enormous deficit. The house was lost to auction in December 1996. By the time I , the client, discovered what had really happened it was too late to take any legal action. It was not a small matter. The cost in the end was more than $300,000. This is all well documented for anyone who want to see the record.

Apparently this simple routine procedure was to much for Joseph to take on or once he got paid he was not obligated to follow through. I am not to sure what his reasoning was but from my experience Mr.Trevino is not a man on his word, he has minimal ethics and is extremely temperamental. I would not recommend Joseph Trevino to anyone seeking legal counsel. You will probably either end up BROKE or in JAIL!

My retainer with Trevino is dated June 10, 1995, Case No. 95-14865, for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. The retainer agreement stated that Trevino would "prepare a bankruptcy plan, provide financial advice, and deal directly with the creditors." Preparing a bankruptcy plan was a matter of accepting without question the 1st trust's terms. Providing financial advice was a matter of allowing me, his client, to waste $21,000 in the bankruptcy plan from the fall of 1995 to the fall of 1996 then to abandon me, his client, to the 1st trust's demands. Dealing directly with the creditors was a matter of going to secret meetings to which I, his client, was not invited and of which I, his client, was not informed and making secret deals the terms of which I, his client, was also not informed. I had to discover those terms on my own from the court. The 1st trust represented the escrow deficit in the bankruptcy plan as $2455 but demanded $361.67 per month in the plan. The $361.67 is $4340/year. The property taxes prior to 1995 had been $1700-$1800 per year. The homeowner's tax credit reduced the taxes in 1995 to $603 and in 1996 to $887. The insurance was $305. That was $75/mo and $100/mo. required for the escrow account, much less than the $361.67 demanded. Trevino repeatedly gave the mortgage lender over my protests the $361.67 demanded. The mortgage lender had collected for the escrow account $23/mo. thru all of 1992 and $68/mo. in 1993. The real deficit was more like $4500 not $2455. Trevino failed to discover and explain to me, his client, that the mortgage lender had completely mismanaged the escrow account over the previous five years and created the enormous deficit. The house was lost to auction in December 1996. By the time I , the client, discovered what had really happened it was too late to take any legal action. It was not a small matter. The cost in the end was more than $300,000. This is all well documented for anyone who want to see the record.

Joseph Trevino is a useless legal aid. He handle a minor possession charge for me. We agreed he would arrange for me to attend a diversion program and upon completion my record would be expunged. When my day in court came he was tardy, when they called my case I had to flag him down to get his attention to come in to the court room and litigate on my behalf. My friend and I faced the same charges we were together when the initial incident occurred. Why she was able to receive the same consequence I received with no legal was interesting. This put me under the impression that my consequence was standard and that with or without Joseph Useless Trevino I would have had the same option. Once I completed the program, I contacted Mr.Trevino to assist with the process of expunging my record. This man felt as though he should be paid in addition to the initial payment. I was under the impression that he would automatically file the paperwork because that was the actual work that was required. We exchanged some words, Trevino became very loud and unruly. He began to insinuate how he did me a favor because he was contracted through a legal aid service . Joseph expressed that he didn't need my measly $500, so I of course asked for a refund. Trevino rudely agreed, abruptly hung up the phone and then a week later sent me the paper work to file my own process to expunge.
