Steve has been a pleasure to work with. He represented my husband on a custody case and was very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. If we need an attorney in the Raleigh, NC area again, we will be more than happy to use him again.

Steve and his team were able to quickly resolve an issue a family member was having. He flagged a problem at the court house and stayed with us until the issue was cleared up. We appreciated the extra time and care he took to talk us through each step of th process. He is very empathetic and knowledgable. We are very pleased with the outcome.

I have been after their office to do a simple will preparation for over 2 months (since mid April 2020). Steve Monks (the head of the business) sent me a form to fill out and assigned the task to one of his paralegals who never initiated a communication. I always kept contacting to make sure they have the information they need to do their job. And no matter what we agree upon in terms of following up, they never call back or follow up on anything. I started engaging the head of the business, he apologized for the delay due to being excessively busy these days, but then nothing happened. That was over a month ago. I sent another email, but no response from anyone there. And until now, I don't have my business done.

Having Mr. Monks as an attorney and Toni Wade as a paralegal has truly been a blessing! Please listen to me when I say, THEY WILL FIGHT FOR YOU! They have been so dedicated and when they go to court, they mean business! It's not about money with them, they truly care and will actually fight for you and your family. They are not like these other law firms that charge you out the wazoo and sit back and stand idle in the court room, HE SPEAKS! Toni has always made herself available, even at night. When I had first met Toni she had introduced herself to me and I thought this was not real because just when I was feeling hopeless GOD had placed her in my life and man has my life changed for the better. Soon afterwards, I met Mr. Monks and I knew immediately I had to hire him to represent me. I got rid of my court appointed attorney as fast as I could because the only thing my court appointed attorney wanted me to do was stipulate to things that were either half explained or not explained to me at all. With that being stated, when I hired Mr. Monks and had Toni's help throughout all of my lengthy conversations, this law firm gave me a VOICE, most importantly, MY VOICE! When they say they treat you like family, they really do. In fact, I feel like they are my family because that's how genuine they are when they handle your case! They have consistently proved that they will not go down without a fight and fight they will! This law firm is a LION and they pack a strong punch. You will not go wrong choosing them to represent you nor would you regret it. Thank you so much Mr. Monks and Toni!

I would like to second my wife's review of the Monk's Law Firm and compose this review in three parts which are to provide my review of the Mrs. Toni Wade and Mr. Steve Monks, esq., while simultaneously providing a review of the firm. I had the fortunate opportunity to become acquainted with the Monk's Law Firm during a most challenging time, by way of Mrs. Toni Wade. Mrs. Wade is the paralegal who reached out to my wife and expressed a genuine concern in how our case was being handled. After countless hours of legal guidance and personal support, we soon realized that we had inferior council that simply had no vested interest in our matters. Mrs. Wade made it her business without making us feel forced, but welcomed. Mrs. Wade is very articulate and intelligent in the legalities of family law and I could literally write a book about the countless concessions she had made for us. If it wasn't for Mrs. Wade's patience and relentlessness in her willingness to assist us, we would have never known or thought about Monk's Law Firm. Mr. Monk. Outstanding! Mr. Monk's treated my wife like as if he was fighting for his mother, sister, or his daughter. He is a very meticulous attorney WHO CARES like it's his children he fights for. As soon as Mr. Monks had taken our case, everything dynamically changed for the better. Night and day is the comparison between our former council and Mr. Monk's. Throughout the case Mr. Monks was very informative about his strategy and was very honest. In terms of concessions, he understands that life happens and made generous provisions in terms of financial arrangements. He is a very talented and formidable attorney. Mr. Monk's will show you that his actions speak louder than words. He is an absolute professional, gentlemen, and above all, a man of honor and integrity. May God continue to bless Mr. Monks, Mrs. Toni Wade, his staff, his firm, and all that they do in the name of righteous and justice as they continue their practice. Thank you Mr. Monks and Mrs. Wade for everything and being true to your motto "We treat you like family!"

For what it's worth we went there for a will preparation service. We met in person, filled out several documents. They said it was fairly simple and we are simple in our needs. Honestly they probably could have found a will off the internet and we would have been fine with it... long story short, after tons of unanswered and unreturned emails and calls over the period of several months we had to find another firm to prepare the will. The new firm was no hassel. It was such a frustrating exerpience... I don't know if they just don't like will preparation or what but if that's what your looking to have done, I would suggest looking somewhere else.

El servicio y la dedicación que prestan estas personas como firma de abogado es increíble, mi experiencia fue espectacular y se logro el objetivo. siempre en la mejor escena, recomendaciones están de sobra para el Abogado Steve Monks y todo su equipo de trabajo, manejan el Español de una manera increíble y nunca hubieron desentendidos. Sin duda volvería a trabajar con ellos.

I received a speeding ticket which was really bad. I was really concerned and my initial conversation put my mind at rest (but I was still worried). The attorney gave me his plan of action and he did as he said. We closed my case this week and although dismissal was out of the question I got a end result better than I thought. Attorney Wells came right in and got me in out of the court in a matter of minutes. I would deal with Monks Law Firm again if I needed good legal support.

I contacted Monks Law Firm because my son got a speeding ticket while visiting NC last year and never paid the fine. We live in Maryland and his license was going to be suspended if he did not clear this up. I spoke to Jeimy Parra who was great. She explained the process and it was so easy. Monks represented my son and his case was closed in about 10 days. The best experience. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!

I contacted Monks Law Firm looking at the excellent reviews on Google. Steve is extremely rude. His firm was supposed to draft an agreement for me and after 1 hour of talking to him and sending him a very detailed follow up email of the terms of agreement, they promised to get it done in 10 days. After 10 days, all i get is a generic document that he could've given it to anyone without any specifics of my terms. When i called to check on it, he was fiery and rude and being extremely passive aggressive trying to be defensive about missing his deadline. More than the agreement not being done, i was upset at how rude and unprofessionally he spoke. I would never ever go to him again and advise others to stay away from him too.
