I would give zero stars if that were an option.
I contacted this firm during one of the most difficult periods of my life. After losing my job, my income was cut exactly in half. I was struggling to pay my bills, facing bankruptcy, and doing everything I could to support my family.
At the time I reached out, I was seeking legal guidance regarding what I believe were serious employment-related issues. I explained that there were already two EEOC matters under investigation, an FMLA-related matter under review, and that I had reached out to the offices of Congressman Keith Self and Congresswoman Stephanie Bice regarding my concerns.
I was hoping to find legal guidance and someone willing to listen to the circumstances I was facing. Instead, I left feeling disappointed and discouraged. The interactions felt cold and transactional rather than understanding or supportive.
Being asked to pay $250 for a consultation felt unreasonable given my circumstances. I explained that I was financially devastated, struggling to feed my family, unable to afford all of my bills, and having difficulty paying for both my diabetic medications and mental health care because my income had been cut exactly in half.
What frustrated me most is that this was not a one-time interaction. Every time I contacted the firm, I came away with the same impression. Rather than feeling heard or understood, I felt brushed aside.
My family ultimately needed public assistance, and I was forced to file bankruptcy. No one is obligated to take a case, but treating people with compassion costs nothing. Unfortunately, that was not my experience.
What disappointed me most is the contrast between the firm's reputation and how I felt I was treated. The firm has accumulated impressive accolades, including Best Lawyers, Best Law Firms, Super Lawyers, a 10.0 Avvo rating, and Board Certification in Labor and Employment Law. Those achievements may be impressive on paper, but awards mean very little to someone struggling to feed their family and seeking help during one of the most difficult periods of their life.
This has unfortunately been a recurring theme with many of the attorneys I've contacted. Because of that, I've started reaching out to firms outside of Texas in hopes of finding someone willing to listen before discussing the price tag.
At this point, my faith in attorneys has been seriously shaken. I've spent countless hours gathering documents, records, exhibits, correspondence, recordings, and supporting evidence. Because of the volume of evidence I've assembled, I'm increasingly considering representing myself rather than continuing to search for someone willing to hear me out.
I walked in believing in truth, justice, and the American way. I walked out feeling like greed had won the day.
For additional context, I have written publicly on Medium, including "Disabled Father of Two Under Two" and "Next Enron."
Others may have different experiences, but based on mine, I would not return to this firm.
