I mean no disrespect to your scholastic achievements but it appears that some education was left behind. I also mean no disrespect to your color because that is often just the excuse of the unsuccessful. ( I'm married to a very successful person of color ) ..... but, quite frankly .... the photo alone that headlines this article is closer to that which resembles a " black activist " rather than an " educated lawyer."  That in itself would have me seeking alternative legal representation.
