I can remember some years ago contacting Barry Stilz concerning a legitimate case I had against a former employer. He suggested that I come to his office at a certain time with my documents and I did just that. Immediately upon entering his office, he noticed that I had 2-3 large binders with me (my documents to support my case). He appeared to be turned off by the fact that I had these binders.
Anyway, after explaining my issue, he shrugged it off with a smirk and suggested that I contact Shirley Allen Cunningham, a former lawyer who was disbarred by the state of Kentucky and is currently serving a prison sentence for stealing millions of dollars from a client in a settlement.
The really screwed up part about this was the fact that this scam artist lawyer that he suggested I contact didn't even handle labor/employment related cases at all (it wasn't his field).
He saw a black woman in front of him and in his mind felt that it was only appropriate that I go cry to someone black. Instead of just saying "Hey, I have no interest in looking into your case" he tells me to call this other scam attorney, as if there were no other attorneys in the city who handled labor cases. It's funny that he chose one of a handful of BLACK attorneys in Lexington. He was a waste of my time and energy and I wouldn't suggest any person of color hire or seek his guidance for any employment related matters.
