You are greeted with a smile and friendly reception upon entering. We worked with Kate Kimble. She guided us through a complicated lease and we felt confident she had given us her best effort in a timely and professional manner. We would certainly use their services again.

Easy to work with, wanted all the information and are understanding of my problems with the business that I have issues with. They have done research on the individual and have prepared letters to him, but he has refused to respond and they said that they will get the sheriff's department to take the letters to him.

Mr. Griffin was very knowledegeable regarding the law and codes in my case which involved my dog being attacked. He was very articulate when arguing my case in court. I felt comfortable knowing that he would compentently represent me. His predictions in my case were true. I feel at ease going into the next phase of my case which is securing the judgement which was granted to me thanks to Ms. Griffin's expertise in my case.

John did seem to provide information that related to the viability of a case we are looking to litigate, however, after we experienced a death in the family and turned back to him for actual representation in a wrongful-death case, he blew us off completely. Months later, out of sheer morbid curiosity did I ask if he was still in business and he replied that he had relocated a few miles away and thus "could not take any cases in the Falls Church area." He says he's still in business, but he will not take cases in northern Virginia or even speak with potential clients. What a waste. We really did need someone who could fight for his client in a very winnable case.

I was a former client of attorney John Griffin. However, I do not share the positive experience commented by other reviewers of this attorney. I hired Mr. Griffin to handle a consumer debt collection case in Montgomery County, Maryland this year. I was the plaintiff in the case. I brought him to assist me in my case after I pursued my case as a pro se for about six months. I thought it was beneficial to involve a counsel especially since the defendant was one of belligerent and uncooperative. In any case, I hired him about two months before trial of my case. So, I did not have time to do the required due diligence on the attorney’s legal caliber. In this regard, I solely and exclusively relied from Avvo.com reviews on the attorney. I was encouraged when I read other clients’ feedback about the attorney. Unfortunately, my experience turned out to be the contrary. Here are the main reasons why this is the case.
Mr. Griffin initially informed me about his “free initial consultation”. However, in a rush against time, I forgot what I learned in my Economics class years ago and that “there is no free lunch, after all!”. At the beginning of what appeared as initial consultation, he asked me to provide him all the documents that I worked on the case via email. After he thoroughly reviewed these documents, he drafted a retainer agreement to pursue the case. It is also after he assured me that I had a case. Be that as it may, a couple of days after this initial “free” consultation, I also mailed him the hardcopies of all the same materials provided to him earlier. Meanwhile, he sent me a bill statement incorporating the time he has purportedly spent to reviewing the documents that I provided him during the “free” initial consolation”. What kind of attorney would charge you back for the “free” initial consultation that he promised in the first place? My honest answer is simply: only an unscrupulous one! I come from a “buyer beware” state from across the river: VIRGINIA. However, I made a judgement mistake and ended up an inexperienced counsel. Regarding handling of my legal case, I am not sure if Mr. Griffin is as knowledgeable about the law as any average attorney, either. As to myself, I am educated, but not in the realm of legal matters. Still, I had to direct him to do things that he should have already known. Later, he kept charging me for duplicate line items and for things that I have asked him not to pursue, and other excessive fees to handling my case. On the day of the trial, among other things: the presiding judge was upset with him for not following up with the opposing counsel; he watched me being grilled by the opposing counsel and remained silent without raising any objection even if things call for such; failed to properly examine the defendant and his witness…etc. My experience with Mr. Griffin is that he not only overcharges for things he may/may not have worked for, but he was careless in handling my case. And, that is the reason I had asked him to withdraw from my case. I am not a happy camper about this experience at all. Consumer beware with this attorney!

Long story short, she never called me back as she promised to let me known if she were going to handle an animal malpractice case. I had to call her 3 months later, of course, she did not answer and never called back, which sealed the deal that I would not want a dishonest person repping me.
She spent more than half of the 10 minute call that she charged $100, lamenting on how she made no profit on the animal advocacy cases she had. She should rethink her stance on deeming herself an animal advocate.

Thinks his primitive ways and his nasty attitude makes him the best in his field. Did things with out my authorization which lead to more hang ups after he dragged his feet for weeks and went on vacation. Bad mouthed my Realtor and my mortgage broker.. also told me it doesn’t matter that my wife is delivering our child early after trying to make better headway on our situation. I really just get the vibe he’s not a good person and for sure not a great lawyer.

Terrible firm did an absolute horrible job and did nothing but prolong our case, blamed us for problems and gave us completely wrong direction on issues we had with our tenants. They hold no accountability on their actions and also blamed us for many of the set backs. Do not use this firm they do not represent clients with their interests only how they can make more money on someone. Tressler attorneys on our case sided with the people we were against on more than one occasion and issues. They hold no accountability to the things they did wrong.

Sue has been our family attorney for three generations. She is very thorough and accurate. She always gets back to you no later than 24 hours herself, personally. Sue is kind and compassionate but at the same time, she does her research and is always ready to present and make a good defense. She is an exceptional attorney. She will go far behind what is expected of her. I will never use anyone else until some day down the road she retires. I would highly recommend anyone to her. You will certainly see in her all the qualities I have told you and more. She is the one you need if you have any land purchases to make. Any right of way or easement problems or any kind of deed problems. She is an expert in her field of Maine State Law.
When it comes to anything to do with property. She has also done our wills for us and helped me with several deaths in my family in the past when needing legal services. She is truly the best.

Noah Kay, a deceitful legal novice falsely portraying expertise in family law, derailed my case with lies and threats. Despite his claims, he failed to deliver in the realm of family law, resorting to threats when his incompetence was challenged. His deceit, lack of knowledge, and unprofessional behavior led to significant setbacks, including withholding critical family law documents. Taking matters into my own hands, I achieved a 100% turnaround after parting ways with this legal liability.
In conclusion, Noah Kay's dishonesty, threats, and ineptitude in family law paint a troubling picture of legal representation. Opting for self-representation proved immensely more successful than enduring his chaos and unreliable conduct.

As soon as I met with Andrea for our consult, I could feel how genuine she was. My case was a long, drawn out headache and she never once made me feel like any problem was too small. She was SO incredibly thorough and made me feel at ease during the whole process. I am so happy for the process to be over, Andrea helped me to get exactly what I was fighting for. I could not have done it without her! I will almost be sad to NOT get to speak with her so much ! She is wonderful. So personable, and compassionate but feisty as she needs to be! I loved having her by my side.

Andrea has always represented Gulf Coast Bank in a very effective and efficient manner. Her professionalism and attention to detail is without compromise and her ability to manage a complex transaction in a less than friendly environment is clearly demonstrated on a regular basis. Her responsiveness and cooperation fosters a client oriented approach that translates to satisfactory results.
We recommend Andrea without hesitation and with our full endorsement.
Thank you.

If this person did as I directed and not worked for the state then I would NOT owe anything. I have a video on facebook under my name sean croto anyone can view and it shows how the system failed my son and myself and I am still fighting the state because of this person. AGAIN DO NOT HIRE THIS PERSON before viewing my videos

Monique helped me with setting up my small business, and drafting the required legal documents and company agreements. She was quick to respond, and attentive to the business' needs. Even after her services were completed, she remained available for questions regarding our business operations as well as unrelated liability questions that surfaced later during our operations. I would definitely recommend Monique, she was knowledgable and professional through the duration of her services.

I first contacted Ms. Diaz when an ex employer was defaming me. Monique was brutally honest with me, advising it would be unlikely I would get awarded damages but we could get them to stop, which she did! I was so impressed, that when I had a family issue, I contacted Monique expecting her to advise me to someone in family law, but she quickly addressed that issue too. In fact, that’s what Ms. Diaz does best, quickly resolving the issue, so her clients don’t get billed needlessly. I can’t speak enough about her, and appreciate all the legal support she’s provided me over the past 2 years.

Paul Gordon has been my attorney for many years. I along with my family have received professional and knowledgeable information from Mr. Gordon. He has helped us in various difficult situations.

I called Mr Gordon and left a message because I was having a dispute with my landlord. He called me back in about 30 min. I asked if he represented tenants(because a few I had already called said they didn't) His response was " yea if the tenant can pay me." Well I though it a bit crass but I said I did expect to pay as I am self employed I want to be paid for my work. He said well everyone that came from these type sites had no money. I reiterated that I was prepared to pay him and knew it would not be free to represent me.
He didn't want to talk much on the phone but said his rate was $250 and he could see me at 2 the next day. So we set a 2 pm appt. In looking him up I noticed 2 things that steered me in his direction. 1. He was in Greenway Plaza 12 which is close to me and a respectable address I thought and he had 41 years experience.
In the time I left a message for him I also call 2 others. One a female atty who seemed to like to be a champion for the under dog but with just a few years experience and a gentleman with a kind face and 18 years legal experience.
I mean how does one choose? I decided to set the appt with Gordon due to his years experience. As my dad use to say" there is no substitute for experience" Well actually there is. There's a real caring for the human factor of the law. Helping people because it's the right thing not the most profitable.
Mr Gordon asked for my $250 before my butt could even hit the seat of the chair. I truly felt I was having sex with a cheap hooker. His words " Lets take care of the money part first" I of course should have ran out the door keeping my money but you know that feeling like you are paralyzed and you just do what they say...that was me at that moment.
He ask me to tell him my story but three words in he said "just tell me the fact" I tried to explain to him these were the facts but each time I began to speak he spoke over me and interrupted. He repeatedly told me that if I was a large company {like Exxon} that had a lot of money he'd be interested but mostly he pretended to take notes, rushed thru the 1 hr consult, and told me he would not be interested and it was a waste of his time.
So the moral of this story is. The atty with 41 years experience and the stain from his lunch on his shirt, in a rent by the hour office is not the guy who cares if your landlord is trying to evict you and your 85y/o blind Mom unjustly. Look elsewhere please!

We entrusted this attorney to help us with a serious situation regarding my being the target of my next door neighbor's obsessive and resentful attention. At first he did all he could to "win our trust" but at the months went by he began speaking to me in a condescending massgenistic way. He was lazy, unprofessional, and a real jerk. Now he had $7000 of our money and we are still wating for him to complete the task for which we hired him. He is a rude, arrogant, entitled, dangeriously passsive agressive and controlling person who will use your retainer fee and the duties set fourth to him as retaliation if he is expected to have even an inch of integrity and high sense of character. He has made a mess out of our situation and my family and I can't give him enough poor reviews.

So mulit talented and open minded! He is working with us regaring a horrible neighbor dispute. One of the few attorneys I have found that specialize in nuicance amongst so many other things. That is so rare to find. He is friendly, professional, and informative. Perfect for anyone doing their first and hopefully only lawsuit because he really guides and educates you. Glad I found him.

Robert is an amazing lawyer. He is down to earth and straight forward. He always answered my calls and emails promptly. Robert helped me get my protective order against my estranged husband and divorce. He personally contacted the police department and informed them of the protective order and requested more patrol in my neighborhood. When I called Robert at 10 PM on a Tuesday night because my ex-husband was threatening my life, He calmed me down and went to the courthouse first thing in the morning to inform the judge of the violations of the protective order. Robert also handled a CPS case for me. He spoke to CPS on my behalf and I did not have to worry about anything. They closed the case within 30 days. I highly recommend Robert Berleth. He is a lawyer who truly cares about his clients. Thank you for taking the time to read my review and good luck to you in your legal situation.

The Saturday before Thanksgiving I was served with a lawsuit for an old account I thought had been settled ages ago. Boy was I surprised. Other than contract negotiations and reviews I have never needed an attorney, and I was terrified about what to do. A very trusted friend referred me to Robert. With the first telephone call, it was a done deal. He was direct in explaining the situation, best options and he wasted no time in getting right to work. Communication was a breeze, and Robert was able to answer all of my questions and help to reassure me. By Wednesday he had a reasonable settlement negotiated, and by Thanksgiving I was very THANKFUL. Hopefully I will not need his service again in the near future, but I would definitely call him again should the need arise.

Sam has represented me for a little over a year in a lawsuit and has been everything you would want your lawyer to be. He is educated, prepared, methodical, and informative. He will tell me his thoughts behind what he thinks we should do, explain it in terms I will understand, and then ask how I want to proceed. He is great with communication if you need to speak with him and always does his best to get things done in a timely manner. I can highly recommend him to anyone who needs his services. He will do everything possible to either win the case or reach a settlement. In our case a settlement was reached thanks to his pursuits and knowledge.

I had issues with Texas Attorney General's Office. Sam helped me out of a sticky situation. He took time to explain to me in a non-lawyer language so that I could really understand the process. Another experience with another attorney spoke in legalese. Sometimes lawyers forget that clients are everyday people. I found Sam very easy to communicate, and I never felt that my intelligence was insulted. I was please with the out come of my hearing. Hopefully, I will never need another lawyer, but if I do; Sam is my guy.

Had a consult and he was worthless to us. $75.00 down the drain, as well
as our time. We knew more than he did about our issue. He was googling tenants rights as we were sitting there.... we already did that and he should know this information and not need to look on the internet if he is an attorney. He didn’t seem to care about our issues, he just seemed to want to get his consult fee. He would tell us useless facts... take up our time we paid for when these comments were unrelated to Our case. He deflected our questions and didn’t answer directly. Did he not not know the answer or just not care? We don't know but we didn’t get answers. Very discouraging, left uneasy and extremely disappointed. The only thing he was good at was letting us know our time was up. Simply worthless for us, time and money we can’t back.

I had a real bad experience with the law firm. The lawyer that was assigned to my case name was Amanda Price. She was working against me with insurance adjuster. When I told Blake about it. He quickly took her side. And that did not surprise me one bit. Amanda Price paralegal had told me that my case was worth a different price then what Amanda told me. But when I confronted Amanda about it. She told me that I misunderstood. But like I told her. I know what Teresa Mounce told me. So I am letting everybody know. That if you use the law firm. Do not let him give you Amanda Price as your attorney. Because she is truly a racist. Because I could tell that by the way she kept trying to talk down to me. She will act like she has your best interest. But she does not. And Blake backs her simply because she works for his firm. And he wants African Americans to think that he has their best interest. When he really does not. Because if he did he would not let Amanda Price do what she did to me

If I could give less than one star I would. I am down over $20k and they didn’t get anything done, and continually find a way to charge $1000-2000/week without anything getting done. Beware! This company is a complete scam, not legit at all, couldn’t even serve a subpoena to a roofing company, basically worthless and put me in a much worse place than I started. Gave me bad advice from the beginning to the end of the case, just a shame, terrible experience. Wish I would’ve never heard of this company.
