Thank you Mr Duncan for your helping my brother through a very difficult time. Filing for bankruptcy was a hard but necessary decision. You and your staff were wonderful. You made the process easy for us and made us feel comfortable from the beginning. I would always recommend you and your staff to anyone going through this process. Again, thank you for our successful outcome.

I initially met with Mr. Duncan back in January with a no cost, no obligation consultation. At the time, I was overwhelmed with debt (foreclosure, charge offs, and a judgment). Mr. Duncan explained my options in great detail and informed me that my situation (means test pending) qualified for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. Mr. Duncan asked me why I decided to contact his law firm instead of the other lawyers in Mecklenburg County. I informed Mr. Duncan that I was thoroughly impressed with the content on his website and his informative YouTube videos. The paralegal (Brooke) that was assigned to my case was very prompt with her email responses and informative. Just as Mr. Duncan stated during our meeting, my court filing date was in March and the trustee /creditors meeting was held in mid April. My Chapter 7 Bankruptcy was discharged at the end of June 2016. I am happy to announce that I have just received my brand new secured credit card in the mail on yesterday!

I met Bo as a 3rd recommendation from other attorneys. They told me he was the man for this case. I retained Bo and right from the get he was in my face honest and told me a likely outcome. He's a regular guy that explains the law jargon in plain English. I was involved in a suit case and I only had a certain amount to settle the case. His tactics were hard for me to understand at times but in the end case settled for the amount I told him was available to me. HE NAILED IT! Hard worker cares about his clients and takes time to explain processes. Hard to find someone like Bo these days that actually has the motivation, knowledge and drive to solve my problem. I would recommend Bo, and as a matter of fact already have, to anyone with a litigation issue like mine. Thank you Thank you Thank you!

Randall and I worked on a complicated case in North Carolina where our client suffered very serious injuries at the hands of very large corporate defendants. The multiple defendants denied liability to our seriously injured client and in discovery dumped thousands of pages of documents on Randall, hoping that he would miss something important. He was able to find the "smoking gun" papers out of those thousands and through extensive discovery and depositions his efforts led to a substantial settlement in the end. In the beginning the defendants would pay nothing, but Randall was able to catch them and get them to settle the case. Can't wait to work with him again in the future.

Christian Gerencir is an attorney that will stand by and educate you on your options when you find yourself drowning with life’s uncommon problems. He was able to research solutions to my issues, present me with my options, and coach me through the implementation of the right potential solution for me. My family had many complex questions that Mr. Gerencir was able to quickly answer with professionalism far beyond his years. Our issues were primarily focused on a civil personal injuries claim and further he consulted on protecting assets in North Carolina. If I ever have a personal injury, auto accident, or workers comp case I know I will be in the best of hands with Mr. Gerencir as my attorney.

He was able to understand my situation from more than just the perspective of a lawyer by giving me a sense of empathy as well as being impartial to the situation as a whole, which allowed him to properly assess what legal advice would help me best. Christian is an outstanding lawyer and I highly suggest if you need legal advice that you contact him immediately.

My initial consultation with Brown and Assoc was by far extremely comforting. Back in 2014 I was in a horrific car crash by a drunk driver. Totaled my brand new car and as a result I had to undergo therapy and loss of work. Paige was very concerned FIRST for my health and mental status. Never about the money. Paige's professional handling of my case was handeled timely and ethical. She is extremely knowledgeable of the laws and does not hesitate to research and find more answers to give the Best bottom line result. She is walking example of hard work and dedication. She will fight for you and your family. I would hire Paige for All future litigation on a drop of a dime. By the way she is very funny and personable , she will answer your calls even on her off days. Wow now who does that ?

This is a very outstanding attorney. Pamela Hunter handled my divorce proceedings. After the consolation, I knew that my case was it great hands. They followed up any questions that I had about the case. Ms. Hunter reviewed the information, researched the information and gave it the upmost attention. My results from the case was much better than I anticipated. People that want a competent, hardworking, and passionate attorney , should choose the office of Pamela Hunter. I have referred several of my associates to Ms. Hunter, with very similar results. If anyone is looking for an attorney that is willing to go the extra mile with outstanding results than this is the best place to go. I highly recommend the Law office of Pamela Hunter

My wife and I were struck head on by a drunk driver traveling nearly 100 mph and a BAC nearly triple the legal limit. We were both hospitalized for a lengthy time, but needed representation immediately. Thankfully, our family found Mr. Monnett on the internet and decided to call him. From that moment on, he seriously handled everything with utmost class, professionalism and diligence. After a two week court trial, Mr. Monnett was able to prove to a jury the drunk driver was over served by the bar he had just left, thus allowing us to win a settlement from the establishment. This was a groundbreaking case in the state of North Carolina and we are forever indebted to Mr Monnett and his entire firm. My wife and I give Charles Monnett our highest recommendation...

I was very satisfied with iTicket.law. They reduced my speeding ticket to improper equipment so I did not receive any points on my license, nor did my car insurance go up. They got me the best case scenerio and I avoided having to drive 8 hours to appear in court, as they did this on my behalf. I felt the cost was very reasonable as well and I didn't have to even talk to anyone on the phone - everything was done thru email and on their portal. Instructions were very clear. This was so simple and easy and would definitely use them again.

I’ve now used Paul twice. He’s been more than just a great lawyer, he’s been like a shark in the very best way. After getting denied for disability on my own. I again went to Paul for help. After the first meeting and getting all my information there was very little else I had to do. He kept me in the loop all the way. Up to the day of court, then when I got there he had already spoken with the judge and got the approval for my disability. Paul and his staff are absolutely wonderful in my book.

The legal consultation was a profoundly positive experience. Micheal L. Littlejohn Jr.'s reality-driven approach, clarity, understanding, and adherence to his brand promise collectively contributed to a consultation that was both informative and reassuring. For anyone seeking legal advice that is rooted in facts and delivered with a personal touch, this consultation comes highly recommended. The cost maybe a little higher but he's worth it.

After a harrowing four-year period that nearly robbed me of all hope, Ted Greve & Associates gave me a listening ear. They willingly accepted my case and championed my cause at every turn. Mr. Justin Lowenberger, alongside his paralegal Samantha, stood by me throughout the ordeal, addressing any questions I had and providing reassurance. Honestly, I can't imagine where I'd be without their advocacy when no one else would stand by me. I am thoroughly satisfied with the outcome and would strongly endorse Justin as a lawyer who will tenaciously fight for you. My heartfelt thanks to Justin and Samantha for bringing light back into my life.

Our firm consulted providence Law and had a very bad experience. Lets start with basics. The law firm required basic information, what is your firms name, what is the owners name, what is the address etc. and why are you requiring our services. We provided. 2nd step, make payment. Done. 3rd step is for Providence Law to execute. Well guess what, nope. Providence Law repeats step 1. and sends you an invoice for step 2. Well, here comes time for step 3... Nope not again, another one of their representative will call you and repeat step 1 and step 2 and send you an invoice for it. In step 1 and 2 you end up paying $6k in fees. Yes, they did file something, finally they did something, a filing of about 2k’s worth. And then they send you a termination letter when you don’t want to repeat step 1 and 2 any longer. When you try to call and call for an explanation they DON’T ANSWER but send you a legal letter stating representation is terminated. LOL, WOW... I am trying to warn anyone out there..
Well Guess what providence Law. I am not asking for any additional legal services, I’ve been calling you NOT for additional services, NO sir, all I’ve been calling, calling for our original documentation but you guys don’t respond. I will now publicly ask for our original documents filed. Which NEVER previously provided, NO, NO, NO.. Do not say you have originally provided the document. That will be a lie.. after many calls you finally after me proving you never originally gave us documentation, you sent original filings. But there has been lot more documents missing. If you called me Mr. Craig Morgan I could have explained, but you never returned our calls, not even to explain why termination. And I’ve been calling and calling to ask for original documentation but no response. Legal letter you sent saying copies of our documentation will be sent for additional cost. $8k later... WOW...people this is called a legal robbery. Be careful everyone. Don’t Call Providence Law. Do Not seek their consultation. You won’t get anything but a bill for What is You Name.

Unsatisfactory experience with Heidi as a parent coordinator. Listens to react and not to understand. In a year as PC she has been unable to resolve any issues and lacks the organization to keep track of or manage any outstanding issues. If you question her billable hours she will falsify statements in her motion that she knows to be untrue. Would not recommend as a PC and certainly not to represent as an attorney.

I was so thankful that I had Ms. Julianna help me with my case. She seemed to really care about me and the problems that I was facing. My (now ex) husband and I were married for almost 30 years. I raised our 3 babies but never had much of a job outside of the home and am disabled now so I can't work. My ex refused to help me out with money. I had a really hard time with money and Ms. Julianna worked with me and gave me a payment plan and didn't make me pay a crazy amount of money up front. Ms. Julianna was my lawyer for a temporary alimony hearing before a judge and for a separation agreement for all of our assets. She did an amazing job at the temporary alimony hearing. She got my husband to pay me a monthly amount that I am really happy with and also got my husband to pay all of her attorney fees!

Julianna was the second attorney I had for my case and I could not have been more happy. My wife (now ex wife) moved in with her parents in SC and took our baby girl with her. The first attorney I met with told me I was SOL b/c my wife was a stay at home mom and moved in with her family. When I met with Julianna she said we should immediately file for custody and fight for my daughter to return to NC. She was professional, kind and very responsive to my (probably annoying) emails and phone calls We had a custody trial and everything. Julianna thoroughly prepped myself and my witnesses. We felt very prepared for the trial. She asked us great questions and asked the baby's mother even better questions - she definitely "put her on spot" several times. You could tell the judge and the other attorney respected her. In the end, the judge ordered that my baby girl return to NC and gave me full custody of our daughter (unless my wife returned to NC - then it was 50/50 custody). I could not have been more happy with Julianna as an attorney and have recommended several of my friends go to her for their divorce.

Julianna is extremely nice, easy to work with. She was a breeze to communicate with (very accessible, returns calls and emails, etc) I struggled with the category ratings because she is trustworthy, responsive, etc- but I think it depends on what you hire her for. She was my attorney in a high-conflict custody case, and it became apparent, rather quickly, that she was not comfortable in a court room. It may have been lack of experience, maybe it was nerves having to face a very experienced & tough opposing attorney- but she struggled with questioning when I was on the stand. The judge did not allow me to answer most of her questions because of their phrasing. Documents that I needed as evidence were not submitted to the court through the proper channels and were deemed inadmissable. She lacked the "quick thinking" on her feet, and overall confidence needed in that setting. She does understnd the law, and she does care about her clients. But if you find yourself going to court, I may consider you find an experienced trial attorney with a proven record.

Pevney was my public defender. He is the worst. Horrible communicator. Does not EVER answer calls, return messages, or reply to emails. He’s always late to court. He worked on my case for 1 year and still could not remember what I looked like or my name is when we were in court. He does absolutely nothing that one could not do while representing yourself. He doesn’t relay information effectively or at all. He is also a personal injury attorney. He must be too dedicated to those clients than all other clients because he did now show interest in public defending cases AT ALL. He’s just not fit for the job. My experience with Pevney has been HORRIBLE.

Mr. Vitale was my court appointed lawyer due to a DSS case with my family. It was all based on my abusive husband's lies about me, and his real abuse. He made DSS believe his coverup. Mr. Vitale did not speak in my defense at all in court, not doing anything to try to reverse the court's opinion (not based on fact.) During the DSS meeting with me, he kept making sure that I was going along with them, not contradicting their lies. He made it like all the DSS's opinion (which was the complete opposite of the truth) was concrete fact, and I didn't have hardly any chance.
