I hired Mr. Swenarton based on a referral from a title company. I was attempting to gain a "quite title" for a property purchased at auction. I was quoted $1500 plus court fees. There was a limited time due to a credit pull, so after on month I called to see what was going on. I was told that the other couple's attorney hadn't responded. I had remembered receiving an email copy of paperwork sent to the other attorney. I called that attorney after doing a Google Search and he answered on one ring. We spoke, he said he had never received a call or letter and that the other family would gladly sign over the house. The follow day I called and spoke to the assistant and told the story, miraculously three hours later she called and told me she had found the quit claim! In addition I had sent five or six emails about a landlord tenant issue. I was told he would file and go to court for me $450. To my surprise when I received a bill for $300 for just reading and sending a one sentence response to my emails. No if this were not enough, I actually trusted to try on last time with an eviction after all of this. We had settled the last agreement at $1800 (about 4x normal cost) and I agreed to retain him for an eviction. I mailed the eviction from Kalamazoo and his staff said it never arrived. I asked if they were going to call the tenants or attempt to resolve, but they stated that would cost the hourly rate of $300. Needless to say if you want to retain a lawyer who is will to work for you and try to save you money, Jeff Swenarton is not the person I would suggest,
