"My experience with Mr Steinfeld will forever remind me to always trust my instincts in the business world.
I got a terrible feeling about Mr. Steinfeld which I ignored and now I'm paying the price to the tune of a $459 charge that I did not
authorize, and which Mr. Steinfeld refuses to return. I had a good phone consultation with Mr. Steinfeld
at first during which he provided me with advice on deposing a witness and then using the depo transcript at trial and in an MSJ. Then I got
my first bad feeling. After just that one 30-minute interaction, I was hit with a request, on 12/3/22, to write glowing reviews of Mr. Steinfeld on 5 different
websites like this one. I declined because it made me uncomfortable and I found his request to be needy, uncouth, and unprofessional. He charges me
$450 an hour then wants me to take time out of my day to help promote his business? I would never ask a client to do anything like that. It's amateur.
Three weeks go by and I have not written any reviews so he has the cojones to follow up with me to ask me again, on 12/24/22, to help promote
his business (without any compensation to me) by writing reviews! Against my better judgment, I do it and I write two reviews.
I figure it would keep him happy, end his begging, and would be good karma. Boy was I wrong. It also gave me a bad feeling that Mr. Steinfeld would penny-pinch and start to add $9
to every $450 hourly charge for future phone consults for the expense VISA takes from him. I mean, really? You can't live a life of exorbitent excess on $441 an hour?
Most people in the world don't take home $441 per week! I hope that
extra $9 makes Mr. Steinfeld feel important. Then Mr. Steinfeld gave me horrible legal advice, which I was a fool for following. He said that nominal damages are
the "only" awards available to defamation per se plaintiffs when in fact the case law he cited (Lawnwood v. Sadow) mentions defamation per se plaintiffs
must receive "at least" nominal damages. Based on that wrong info, I filed a Motion To Amend my complaint to add a claim for punitive damages,
which was denied and which, I believe, gave the defendant the confidence not to negotiate at our required mediation, which, looking back, would
have been a great resolution to my case. Then, the real problem came with Mr. Steinfeld. On Wednesday, 2/15/23, I asked if he could set aside
15 mins for a telephone consult so I could ask him about the process of interlocutory appeals. His reply was shocking and I should have fired
him on the spot. "It'll take more than 15 minutes though so I'll run your card for an hours worth of time." You'll run my card for an hour?
Seriously? How do you know what my questions are? Again, my fault for not trusting my instincts. But his fault 100 percent for what happens next. We did not settle on a time
on Wednesday for the call so I go home to sleep. Next morning, I wake up and find a long rambling e-mail from Mr. Steinfeld about all sorts of
topics unrelated to interlocutory appeals, to which I immediately say, "Thanks but that was entirely unnecessary." I was totally
deflated because I knew he sent the e-mail just to whack me for $459, which of course, he did. The consult never took place because I had a sick sick feeling in my
stomach about Mr. Steinfeld. Weeks go by and Mr. Steinfeld never refunded my money. I figured no one can be so juvenile and corrupt to
do this to me but he did. When I finally asked Mr. Steinfeld to refund my money, he replied, "I performed a service for you" even though it
was a service I did not ask for, authorize, or approve. So be warned about Mr. Steinfeld. I think he is greedy and lacks any sense of right and wrong.
I would never keep a client's money in such a situation. Shame on Mr. Steinfeld. E-mail me for any additional information about Mr. Steinfeld or contact
the Florida Bar as I filed a formal complaint pertaining to this unauthorized $459 charge. I think a police report is in order, too, but I
have a hunch the cops will tell me it's civil theft and not for them to prosecute."
