3
Unprofessional and rude behavior
“Edward Blake was extremely rude, cut me off when at almost every sentence, and then just told me how much it would cost to hire him and then conversation was done. I would never recommend him to anyone, in fact I called the Illinois Lawyer Finder that told me about him to let them know what a jerk he was and will let anyone that needs a lawyer know to avoid this place like a black plague.”
4
Failure to deliver promised services
“Took nearly 6000.00 from me and never did any of the things they were asked to do. They asked me several times if I wanted items sent over to the executors attorney. I told them yes with several witnesses in the room in November 2023 and ended up having to go to their office today February ”
5
Lack of empathy and consideration for client circumstances
“They all know I don't have a job and can't afford to make my payments at the moment while I look for work. So what do they do? They request I pay all of my debt in a lump sum and filed a motion to leave.”
