Scam city

Ask how long ago your assigned Attorney passed the Bar Also ask about hidden costs E-Mail response that s one sentence long That ll be 105 Need to call the secretary for 2 minutes That ll be 20 There s a certain level of irony involved with a law firm whose pricing model should be considered illegal Stay far away

Terrible Experience - has this ever happened to you

Hiring this law firm was a terrible experience After checking the State Bar Association website and consulting with other lawyers about recommendations of a trustworthy and responsive lawyer did I finally found David Parnell His reviews were stellar and after completing a free consult with him I felt good about retaining his services Bad mistake You see once you retain him there is no direct phone number to contact him only email When you email him he fails to get back with you in a timely manner When you send him extensive emails that includes items he requested in intake or other important matters used in your case he responses with one or two sentence email replies - replies that don t even acknowledge that he read them Also when he calls you unscheduled from a one way phone number meaning you can t call him back he doesn t recall key points in your case or like your court date or when your motion was filed Worst part in court he s untrustworthy and reading some of these reviews I am not alone in my mistrust Please do your research and ask questions upfront before retaining their services like - after paying a retainer why do I have to leave my credit card on file Do I have a direct number to contact my attorney Will my attorney call me without a scheduled appointment time from an outbound number that I can t call back into Will my attorney sometimes rename the file names of email attachments from reasons unknown to me If they answer truthfully good luck with that then I would say then buyer beware and moving forward you have been warned Please proceed with caution with this firm

Before you choose this law firm think again

When I hired my lawyer I didn t realize the Goldman company takes a bit of everything my lawyer gets so it is like paying double One to Goldman and the other to the lawyer I voiced my concerns in a review and Jason Goldman contacted me and told me he would give me a 600 00 credit if I revised my review as I paid double what all my other lawyers would have cost It was an astronomical fee for a simple child support review I revised it as he demanded I was still truthful Jason Goldman messaged me and said I didn t do what he told me to do and he was very angry and said he was taking off the credit That to me is unethical and unprofessional We have contacted the Michigan Bar Association and filing a Grievance report I told him I would not lie for money I called back and asked them to notify Akiva E Goldman as I am sure he does not condone such behavior I guess we will see if he responds Or if this is normal behavior

This firm is the worst that I have ever

This firm is the worst that I have ever seenTo start with I called Michael and told him about the situation I am with my ex wife and he assured me that he would get my case the best result possibleHe sent me to Sara K Stafford We paid 3500 upfront before she took the caseLong story short we lost big time on our case because Sara missed one court date and got us a substitute that don t know a single word of my case She was so confused in front of the judge and said she wasn t our lawyer and has to look at the case Those are charges before we started courtIn the end of losing all the courts they sent me another bill for 4700 00 and a congratulations notes for all the bull crap they did for me which I paid because they sent it to collections right away I counted 128 reviews they received in one week period which are all 5 star reviews They buy fake reviews to get your foot in their door then your hooked to all of they feesJfk airport don t even receive that many reviews a weekUnprofessional and unorganized firm that I will never ever recommendGood luck to all

The most unethical Lawyers I have ever had

This company nickel dimed me for 10 000 The lawyer rescheduled every hearing until the evidentiary hearing and then she left this toxic Goldman firm They wanted me to keep paying after I was left without a lawyer then they wanted me to sign a document that I would not make a complaint about them if not they would drop me totally They wanted to initially give me a credit and strongly urge me to take off my previous negative review This is very unethical and I intend on getting a grievance from the Michigan Bar I would stay far away from this firm

hired a lawyer not knowing the money

hired a lawyer not knowing the money would flow through the Goldman law firm in addition to the lawyer I hired her for a simple child support review I m not sure why but they charged for multiple mailings It took my lawyer 3 hours to write a single motion which was 1 000 Never paid a lawyer so much for doing so little After I voiced my concerns in this review the other day I received a message from a Jason Goldman who stated they the firm would issue me a 600 00 credit if I revised my review It was an astronomical fee for a simple child support review I revised it as he demanded I was still truthful Jason Goldman messaged me again and said I didn t do what he instructed me to do and he was very angry and said he was reneging on the credit That in my opinion is very unethical and unprofessional We have contacted the MichiganBar Association and are filing a Grievance report I refuse to lie for money I contacted them and asked to speak to Akiva E Goldman as I am sure he does not condone such unethical behavior in his firm I guess we will see if he responds Or is this a common normal accepted practice by this firm If the lawyer who sent me the attorney grievance forms and wanted the messages I got from Jason Goldman If you re still out there please message me I will be more than happy to share them with you as in my opinion they should be investigated for their questionable business practices The lawyer assigned rescheduled everything about 4 times then quit the firm This firm refused to represent me unless I signed something that I would not say anything bad about them I refused and they dropped me Their still trying to charge me for dropping me because their lawyer left them Run Run Run
