I spoke with Robert Hicks, Esq., of this law firm, who is from their Freehold office. I have a psychiatric malpractice case. He asked me how it started. I began to explain. He said he could not understand me, so that therefore a jury would not understand me, and so he did not want to represent me. The beginning part is complicated and hard to explain. So later the same day I called back to ask him to reconsider. I spoke with his secretary and told her that two Monmouth County Prosecutor's office detectives did understand me in the manner I explained the case to them. I had previously reported the horrible x and r rated crimes that occurred against my psychiatric peers and me at both Jersey Shore University and Monmouth Medical Centers. These detectives told me at the end of our one hour interview in their Freehold office that I seemed to be coherent to them. I also told Mr. Hicks' secretary I was published at Georgetown University Kennedy Institute of Ethics. So I asked her if I could speak with him again to ask him to reconsider. Mr. Hicks got on the phone and quickly told me he had already declined to take my case and if I called him again he said he would call the police on me. I was entirely reasonable asking him to reconsider based on his weak explanation for why he was not accepting my case. That is not my complaint. Any attorney has the right to decline a case, for good reasons or bad. However, he simply could have asked me nicely not to call him back. I told him not to threaten that way. And he said goodbye and hung up on me. He dismissed my case, I believe, not because I was unclear, but because he thought I was crazy. This is a phenomenon we experience commonly. We call this "gaslighting," which is a form of bullying. I will not call him again. I wouldn't dare. Case closed.
