Peter Humblias Attorney reviews and complaints

My fiancee and I were buying our first home and had Peter recommended to us by our realtor. We will not make the same mistake and recommend him to anyone. Our experience with him was awful. The main issue was that he never sent us a crucial document from the sellers that detailed various issues with the property we were trying to buy. Had we seen these documents we would have stopped our purchase right away. Instead we ended up wasting four months of our time waiting for this purchase to play out and ultimately fall apart (thank goodness) when we finally got our hands on the documents in question. Peter emailed the document to us however the attachment was too big(27MB) to be delivered. Later when we questioned him about the document he claimed to never receive a notice that the emails he was sending were returned which was a lie, he accidentally revealed this to us when attempting to send us the document again months later.
But that wasn't even the only issue, he constantly cut us off and tried to make us feel dumb. He would often tell us that we were wasting his time and asking stupid questions and then follow that up with snide comments about how he was losing so much money on our file. If all a lawyer wants to do is make money and doesn't really care about what happens to his clients that is one thing, but to constantly tell the clients that pretty much every time you talk to them, it's flat out disrespectful and rude.
Since our first purchase fell apart (much later than it should have thanks to Peter) we eventually found another place we wanted to buy and used a lawyer recommended to us by two of our friends. This lawyer charged half the price and worked at least five times as hard. He never made us feel dumb and showed genuine interest in making sure we were comfortable with all aspects of our major purchase. Peter is a joke, I have no idea how he is still in business with not only his prices, but his awful service. My advice to you if you are thinking about hiring Peter Humblias, is STAY AWAY!

I've worked with approximately 5 difference attorneys for general matters over the last 10 years. In my experience, I found this attorney to be very focused on the bottom line. He is very money hungry and overcharges his clients on any chance he gets (he'd often complain to me about other clients and how missed chances to make more money with certain cases -- I was amazed at his lack of scrupules in maintaining confidentiality). He doubles the amount of work he says he does on a case, and shows no regard for the people he claims to be "helping." He's a very smooth talker, is quick with a comeback to any comment or question you may have, and is always looking for a way to shift blame away from himself. He apparently works hand in hand with his mother (some realtor) and they steer a lot business back and forth. I got the feeling like it was always one hand washing the other. Between the two of them, they'd try to get as much money out of the client as they could. I'll never use him again. Other attorneys I've been to have been shocked at what he charged for the work he did. One attorney even asked me if I wanted to consider suing Humblias for malpractice. I knew that Mr. Humblias would just tie me up in court proceedings for years if I brought a case against him (just to spend my money), so I declined. Consumer beware!
