If I could give ZERO stars I would. The level of incompetence is UNMATCHED.

April Maxwell has gone way above our expectations. She helped us through our bankruptcy. And even issues that came up. That was not related. This is the best attorney ever. Stop scrolling pick up the phone. Send them a request. You won’t be disappointed.

II was extremely disappointed with my experience at Maxwell Law Group. Despite providing all necessary documents and maintaining consistent communication, my bankruptcy case was inexplicably closed due to a lack of communication. This was particularly frustrating as I had been actively engaged in the process and was awaiting further instructions. I attempted to contact the firm multiple times, but my calls were never returned. I also repeatedly requested that they send communication to my work email and call my work cell phone, as I am often unavailable at my personal contact information. Unfortunately, these requests were ignored. The lack of responsiveness and professionalism from Maxwell Law Group caused significant stress and inconvenience. I would not recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal assistance.

Sherri, Candace and April have been incredible. Such humanity, legal expertise, and client advocacy. Unfortunately, I had to file bankruptcy earlier in life, now in my 60's again. They helped me with my payment plan to be so much lower than previously so that I can afford my payments and just work 1 job. I highly, highly recommend this dynamic legal trio of incredible professional women. And you will not feel judged or shamed! They are the best.

Great firm of lawyers they are there truly to help they really care about you Very professional they always call you back and respond to all the questions you may have I am so impressed Is just like talking to someone you know not just the typical lawyer that just charges you every time you have a question To me they are 5 stars plus So grateful for what they are doing to help me

IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH Bethel Zehaie as your hired attorney KEEP ALL OF YOUR DOCUMENTATION AND IMMEDIATELY FILE A FORMAL GRIEVANCE/COMPLAINT with the STATE BAR. I never write reviews, but I felt compelled to write about my personal experience with Bethel Zehaie, after I read the reviews from Nathan Murrell, Patrice Jones, etc. I signed a contract with Bethel Zehaie in December of 2022. She was hired and paid by me to handle my SAPCR and Child Support Enforcement Case with my child’s father. The Final Hearing for my SAPCR was in April of 2023 and although the judges and I kept asking for the final orders to be filed, she never completed them until August of 2023, (similar to Nathan Murrell’s experience with her), so I know he isn’t lying. Now, I am waiting for Bethel Zehaie to fill out and file a $8 form with the court that would move my child support enforcement case along. (The Judges, Court Coordinators, and Attorney General have consistently informed me that only Bethel Zehaie can do this as the attorney on my case.) I have volunteered to meet her at the court and pay the $8 fee with her at the court to get this done and she has consistently lied and stood me up each time.The last time she was scheduled to meet with me to get this done was July 1, 2024 she texted me from a different number saying that “she got a new phone number over the weekend.” (just like Nathan Murrell stated in his review) and that she had another hearing to attend in Ellis County. At this present moment she has completely vanished and isn’t responding to any of my emails or text messages, nor any communication or inquiries from the court, or the Attorney General, regarding my child support enforcement case. The last email she sent me was an email just this week August 12, 2024 at 11:46am asking me when was a good day and time for she and I to talk about my case, and after I immediately responded to her email with the date and time, she NEVER followed through which is extremely TYPICAL behavior for her. I have asked Bethel (in writing) if she wants to withdraw from my child support case, (although I would prefer that she simply act with some integrity keep her word to see my case all the way through as I hired and paid her to do), but she hasn’t responded BECAUSE she knows that I have complied with EVERYTHING that she has asked me to do as her client, as well as what the court/judges have asked me to do. Bethel Zehaie has just dropped the ball on my child support enforcement case without any form of communication as to why. I have a hearing on August 21, 2024 and I am unsure that she will even attend it which is outright unethical and unprofessional of her as an attorney. Court personnel are asking me where is my attorney Bethel Zehaie and I don’t have a clue where she is or what is happening with my case. When you hire an attorney, you want to hire an attorney that communicates well and consistently, shows up for EVERY hearing on your case, without you having to tell him or her that you have a court hearing because your attorney will ALWAYS be notified of any hearings on your case as well as receive all correspondence regarding your case. Try to choose an attorney that not only speaks but acts with INTEGRITY and HONESTY and that will see your case ALL THE WAY THROUGH. My prayer for Bethel Zehaie is that she learns to treat her clients right and work on improving her short comings.You will never truly be successful as an attorney or even a mere human being in this world by mistreating/mishandling people who have signed contracts with you, paid you, and trusted you with some of their most difficult times in life. Every bad review on Bethel Zehaie isn’t a lie. Respectfully, Latoya Haley

I don't see how anyone could give a 5 star rating other than her telling or asking you to do so. Just like the one review I read. I hired Bethel to handle my divorce approaching 1 year ago. I paid her $1500 to get started. 4 months later, I finally see my papers. That's pretty much where we are today. Her lack of progress and communication is beyond disappointing! The last time I attempted to contact Ms. Zehaie via text. I got a reply stating that her number is no longer accepting messages from my number! Via phone call: same thing, her number is no longer accepting calls from my number! So I sent an email to which she replied: "No, you're not blocked. I've gotten a whole new contact number, which I will send to you later." I still, to this day, have not received that "new contact number." So I sent another email expressing my anger and disappointment to which she still has not responded to! This is very unprofessional as an attorney! I am now seeking new council and have started the process of filing a formal complaint!!!

Subject: Urgent: Missed Court Dates and Immediate Concerns for Felicia Williams Dear Attorney Bethel Tewolde Zehaie, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding your client, Felicia Williams, who you have missed several recent court dates for. Felicia’s mother has been attempting to reach you for some time now, but unfortunately, she has not been able to make contact. There is an immediate and pressing concern for Felicia’s release from custody. Since Sheriff Bill Waybourn took office in 2017, over 65 people have died while in custody at Tarrant County Jail. This alarming statistic underscores the urgent need to ensure Felicia’s safety and well-being. As you may be aware, Felicia suffers from mental health issues. Additionally, being a woman of color places her in the demographic with the highest rates of in-custody deaths. These factors compound our concern for her immediate release and proper care. We kindly urge you to take swift action to address this situation and provide any necessary updates regarding Felicia’s case and court dates. Your prompt attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, Patrice Jones
