Jeanne K. Damirgian
Decided she didnt want my case and just kept my retainer of $5000

I met with Jeanne Damirgian over 10 years ago. I was highly recommended to her. I was being prosecuted for mail fraud. This was my first crime ever at age 38. Jeanne Damirgian was a former prosecutor and requested $5000 as a retainer. My wife and I met with her for approximately 1hour. I was just recovering from Kidney Cancer and I was very distraught. We paid the $5000 and she told me she would review the case. Two weeks past and I started calling her office to see the progress. Jeanne Damirgian informed me that she was not interested in the case due too a high profile lawyer one of my co-defendants was using. She said he liked publicity. I asked her about the retainer being returned after she took what she felt was fare for her time and she informed me she would look at her time spent. I was expecting a fee of anywhere from $300-$500 for the time she spent reading the charges and the consulting with my wife and I.

I tried calling her back after a few weeks and she would not take my calls. I never received a penny back. Here I was in a very scary predicament and a lawyer rips me off for at least $4000 if not more.

I never pursued the transaction legally and I paid another attorney $20,000. I highly recommend you avoid using and attorney who could do this to a person who is in need of help during a very emotionally and disturbing time! She should have had the courtesy to return part of my retainer. Stay Away! She is a poor representation of the judicial system and members of the bar in criminal cases. Jeanne Damirgian was a former prosecutor and that should have been my first sign to stay away with a criminal case.
