Reviews

Mr. Crumbley came highly recommended to me and I would also recommend him highly to all others for any legal reason. He served our family member with great care , but most importantly, great skill.

The firm assisted me with 2 traffic tickets I got in Madison County. It may not seem like a big deal, but I have not had a ticket in well over 5 years and I did not want the points on my license. Mr. Blackwell was able to get both tickets dismissed! Court started at 9:00 am and I was out by 9:30.

Mr. Crumbley’s office called me the day after I posted my review of his partner, and asked if I would speak with Mr. Crumbley at his office. When I explained I was busy I was asked if I would speak with him over the phone. I agreed and I was transfered to Mr. Crumbley. After listening to me explain my why I left the review and my account of my interactions with Mr. Matt Wisda, Mr. Crumbley asked me several questions. 1. Would I consider removing my review? 2. Would I consider moving it to Mr. Wisda’s webpage? 3. If he (Crumbley) were to fire Mr. Wisda would I then delete my review! I said no. 4. Was there ANYTHING he (Crumbley) could say or do that would result in me removing the review? To which I responded “Not ethically”, because I felt he was trying to “lead me” into asking for a monetary resolution. During our discussion Mr. Crumbley stated he was not at all happy about Mr. Wisda’s conduct. And that he was considering actions (including termination). He asked once more if there was anything he could do To get me to retract the review against “Crumbley, Blackwell, & Wisda Lawfirm”. I explained to him that when I researched Divorce Attorneys/Firms I based my decision in part on the reviews of his Firms website and information regarding the lawyers and therefore would not consider removing the review. We said goodbye and I hung up. I spent that day wondering if he would call again. I just knew “IT” wasn’t over. So this evening I checked on my review out of curiosity...and wouldn’t you know it there is this long drawn out explanation that it was I who was misinformed etc. Never once mentioning any unethical behavior on behalf of Mr. Wisda! I want to SHOUT from the highest rooftops what a sleazy slimeball you are! Shall I post more? Shall I post information Mr. Wisda freely disclosed to me about a clearly VERY SENSITIVE divorce and custody battle where the children involved had been...! You disgust me! I retained Matt Wisda to represent me for my divorce. I feel he acted unethically. I contacted his office after receiving an invoice for services that were not rendered. When I followed up with an appointment a few days later not only did he begin by talking about another case he had been working on (this was the 2nd time he mentioned details of this other party's case!) but he also presented me with an official Settlement Agreement" that clearly stated me and my spouse had both agreed to - WHICH NEITHER OF US HAD! We never went through discovery at all! No mediation - nothing! The entire document looked copy and pasted, and all of the assets and then some were to be awarded to me! Mr. Wisda was trying to fool me into thinking he had been hard at work on my case and that I was entitled to everything when in fact he hadn't done anything. Additionally It was never my intention to try take my husband to the proverbial cleaners. I just wanted a fair settlement. I didn't even look at the "Settlement Agreement" he'd drawn up while at his office. I had already decided to sever our business agreement and told him so. I asked when I could pick up my remaining retainer and he said it would be about a week. When I went to pick up the monies, enclosed with my check was an invoice of almost $700 for the bogus "Settlement Agreement" that had been drawn up without consultation or discovery. Coincidentally the new invoice showed just one line item for the preparing of said agreement which was dated after the phone call I mentioned above. I immediately drew up a letter refusing to pay and insisting I be refunded. Additionally in the letter I called him out for trying to fool me and get paid for it. I emailed this letter and received a response early the next morning stating they would immediately refund the that money, which they did. I am leaving this review to make others aware. In our consultation meeting he told me his practice "is like a game to me." And because conducting his business in such a way, I feel, is an abuse of his power as an attorney and is extremely unethical.

Contacted them trying to get help in resolving debt with a collection agency. Was dismissed very quickly and told there's not much an attorney could do and to pay the debt.

Get this lawyer, Blackwell .

I visited Jonathan Blackwell and although I didn't need immediate legal help, he gave me stellar advice and if I do need legal help in the future I will Defenitely use him!

Russell Crumbly is a fantastic lawyer. I was being charged with a DUI and a friend of mine recommended Russell Crumbly, and it was the best decision I could have made. I was so embarrassed and ashamed of myself, I was also a nervous wreck. Russell Crumbly reassured me that he would take good care of me and because of him I'm being given a second chance. Russell Crumbly gets the job done! I highly recommend!!

I retained Mr. Crumbley to represent me on a DUI in the city of Madison. I had heard a lot of good things about him and his firm from other people that had used his services. I scheduled a consultation and went to meet Mr. Crumbley. I was very nervous about my situation, but within minutes he had me at ease and feeling confident we would win this case. During our meeting, Mr. Crumbley was very professional and knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I followed his advice and we took the case to a jury trial in the higher court. We were scheduled court dates several times and each time I went, the court wasn’t able to try the case at that time and would reschedule at a later date. Jump forward 6 years (that’s our court system), and the court finally scheduled a court date. So since it had been 6 years, I had moved a couple of times so the court didn’t have my current address so I was never notified of the new date. Mr. Crumbley still appeared in court on my behalf, he informed the court that he had tried to contact me but was unable to reach me. The court was talking about doing several different things, but Mr. Crumbley kept fighting on my behalf to reach a solution that was in my best interest. The day after my court date, I had a missed call, I called the number and it was Mr. Crumbley’s office. His staff found out who had tried to contact me, next thing I know, Mr. Crumbley was on the phone. He told me about the missed court date, and I’m thinking Ok, bench warrant!!! He continued to tell me the news….Case is Dismissed!!! What better outcome could there be. Thanks Russell.

I could not have chose a better law firm to handle my case!!! Thank you so much Russell and Mike👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽.

Friendly staff. Really willing to help and make things as easy as possible.

We hired Russell to take care of a legal matter for our son and he was amazing! He did exactly what he said he was going to do and I highly recommend him and his team should you need legal counsel.
