Disappointing and discouraging. Sent an email July 28th requesting a consultation. No reply. Spoke with receptionist on July 31, left message for call back. No reply. Called again on August 3rd, spoke with receptionist who tried to connect me with Derek. He was unavailable. Was told he would call me later in the day. Shortly thereafter received a brief email that he wasn't taking on any new landlord/tenant clients. I only requested a one hour meeting to get some answers to questions. In my opinion, very unprofessional.
Derek charged us $250 for a rushed, short consultation, gave incredibly inaccurate information and legal advice (confirmed by an additional attorney AND judge), and said at the end that he did not even plan to take our case in the first place.
Derek is the kind of attorney that will make sure you are well informed about the legal process as you work with him. Absolutely stellar work, furthermore, the office is responsive in a timely manner. I have had a complex case and he did a great job! Thanks for the great work!
This place had the most rude receptionist ever. Was extremely demeaning, lied about being in the office by herself and then said she had someone else answering phones. Wasted my time with a bunch of questions and asking for information and then finally asked a qualifying question at the end of the conversation only to tell me after wasting 20 minutes of my time that they would not represent me because of a conflict of interest. Based on this experience I can’t imagine what a nightmare it would be to deal with these people let alone pay them.
