Mr. Bridgewater started off as a nice person and a completely professional attorney. However, as my case progressed he began to impose his religious views and standards of morality to me. He could have eased to penalty handed to me by the court, but he decided that it was important that I learn a lesson from my transgression. I ended up doing extra community service at some religious based home for troubled youth. I ended up missing class and work. At some point my mother had trouble paying him on time and asked if she could pay the bill a week or two later. My Bridgewater showed his true colors by verbally humiliating my mother in front of me. He described her as a "poor Christian role model" and that it was no wonder that I was deliquent in my behavior. It was one the worst experiences my mother has ever had to handle. We paid the bill and never spoke him again.To this day, I have never had to endure such treatment from another human being. I can't believe he has been allowed to a be judge. His psedo-religious views obscure what Christianity is about: compassion and forgiveness. He was wrong about me and he was wrong about my mother. I finished college, continue to serve my country in the military, and provide for my wife and children. I have used his judgemental Christianity as a yardstick for how not to treat others. I recommend to anyone who needs an attorney not to use Mr. Bridgewater. People in trouble need compassion and someone who will provide the maximum support to their client without trying to make sure that the law teaches them a moral lesson.
That was 13 years ago and I have since moved on, but I feel its necessary to provide my own personal feedback in case there is another single mother in Houston trying to an attorney for their son or daughter.
