A wonderful experience dealing with Patrick Dowd and Darlene Benning. They were very personal and help me with all my issues diligently.

The best

The best at what they do!!!..Dave Grebel is the go to guy..He has handled cases for my friends and family, always with a positive outcome!

I used this law firm after I was rear ended at a stop light. After multiple attempts to contact the drivers insurance with no response they were able to help me. The staff was excellent. They guided me to the help I needed and kept me well informed throughout the process. I’m thankful for their knowledge and understanding. I recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again if necessary. Thanks again to the excellent communication and professionalism of the staff.

VERY THOROUGH AND ALWAYS PROFESSIONAL!

Bill was handling a case for my brother that involved the police department and I had a question about it. The email that I received back from Bill I will have to admit is one of the most unprofessional condescending and derogatory emails I've ever had sent to me. Thanks for not helping answer a simple question of how I can get my brother's identification back to him. Not a hard question but for Bill it must have been.

Called a few weeks ago, no return call.

Not impressed!

I was hired as a paralegal out of college at the Driscoll Firm’s Raleigh North Carolina location from October to November 2023. While the pay was great at $22 an hour to start for me, it wasn’t worth it. Management is terrible and paralegals are overworked at literally hundreds of clients assigned per worker. Client information was rarely updated, sometimes months behind, incorrect addresses, out of service phone numbers, and even a few clients whose files I helped with who didn’t even have properly signed retainers from months before I started (somebody who claimed to be their personal representative that we didn’t have record of had signed, for example). Clients sometimes weren’t able to be reached for months and some didn’t even remember being with the Driscoll Firm. As an employee, it felt like everything was an issue with supervisors. They advertise two 15-minute breaks, and yet, it’s somehow an issue if you take one of them. I use a screen reader due to blindness and overheard the supervisor saying it looked like I was “doing nothing” on my screen when the voiceover was reading a paragraph from a document to me, and that’s not even the worst. I filled out a leave request slip for a planned trip a month in advance. I wasn’t expecting to hear back right away and since I was fairly new, I knew there was a good chance it could be rejected, but I filled one out just in case. A week before being fired, I was in and out of the hospital for a week with sudden uncontrollable muscle convulsions and constant twitching. I was later diagnosed with a brain disorder called Conversion Disorder and had been updating the staff on this condition and my treatment plan, when I would be returning, etc. I had returned the following Monday and, while they told me to keep them updated, and that they would get back to me about the leave request that week, I was immediately fired due to “poor performance” instead as soon as I arrived. The supervisor told me to call my ride to come back and get me and said I had to leave soon because she already had a new person to train. I was dismissed immediately. They have little intention of keeping most employees and firings are very frequent. It seems my hospital stay and new diagnosis was the moment they decided to let me go. I would not recommend this firm for prospecting employees or potential clients.

This whole team is incredible! I was going through some of the previous reviews and wonder if they even actually contacted anyone in this firm! I had so many emotions during my case and Rachel was always an email away! Sometimes it is hard to believe that lawyers have true emotions but I can tell you Rachel does and she truly cares! I will recommend this team to everyone!!!
