In 2013, I made the unfortunate mistake of hiring Pullman & Comley for legal services. I was immediately charged a $7500 retainer and attorney Alan J. Sobol began representing me defending a case. What I did not know was that another Pullman & Comley attorney, D. Robert Morris, was already representing the other side, the prosecuting authority, which had brought the false charges against me. Alan J. Sobol basically pretended to be actively fighting the case for me, when he was really working against me. Sobol provided false information to me and to the court on multiple occasions. Over the next 2-year period, I endured an excessive amount of over 20 court dates, which were mostly postponed due to Sobol making private agreements with the prosecutor behind closed doors. One of those unethical activities was when Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley negotiated with the prosecutor to remove a legal defense fund. How and why would the prosecutor and defense attorney feel the need to negotiate the removal of a client’s legal defense fund? During the 2-year period I was slammed with approximately $40,000 in fees charged by Pullman & Comley and Alan J. Sobol. The $40,000 in funds were effectively scammed by Pullman & Comley, due to the conflict of interest that they failed to disclose. After being provided no evidence of the accusations and mounting legal fees I requested that Sobol provide me with a copy of the police report. Sobol refused to provide it, which is very suspicious because Sobol supposedly had no problem with that report being given to the press. I later found out that the police report was actually being withheld because the report would reveal that charges were being fabricated against me with the assistance of Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley. Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley engaged in fraud by hiding critical documents from their client's access, such as law enforcement reports. Alan J. Sobol only became involved in this case to invade my privacy and to prosecute me from within his position as the defense attorney.

Sobol’s lies and false information filed adversely affected me and effectively denied me the Constitutional right to due process. Judge Norko and subsequent Judges postponed the alleged misdemeanor case hearings approximately 15 times over the last 3 years. Sobol lied to his client and claimed that the judge was sick. During the course of these hearing absolutely no evidence of wrongdoing was obtained by Sobol or presented by the prosecution. These postponements caused unnecessary and unwanted travel to and from New York, causing loss of work and travel expenses. These unethical postponements based on a fabrication of illness of a single solitary Judge happened approximately 15 times. As you know, the excessive number of postponements resulted in many hours of unnecessary and excessive legal billing. This also prevented due process and justice. Sobol purposely provided false information and incorrect legal advice to his client, to illegally lure his client over state lines to a consultation meeting, which resulted in arrest, and has since developed into a catastrophe. Sobol did not appear in person to represent me properly in any way and he did not even appear or arrange for a substitute attorney to appear at a consultation meeting he scheduled and which resulted in my arrest. This facilitated attorney Sobol’s scheme to secure about $40,000 in fees while withholding crucial police reports from me for an extended period of time. In 2015 I fired Pullman & Comley, but I had already been scammed out of approximately $40,000 in unnecessary legal fees. Anyone considering hiring an attorney should take this as a warning and prevent Pullman & Comley and crooked attorneys like Alan J. Sobol from taking advantage of you.
