After having Mr. McNutt Sr. on my SSI case for over 1 1/2 years he quit on me stating he couldn't…read morewin. This was just before my hearing. The reason being he stated "your cardiologist is not on board I can't win ". He not only left me in a lurch, but also billed me for my medical records that he sent for. Mr. John Haapala from Eugene just won my case for me, and he only had a month to prepare. Don't waste your time on McNutt. Get a "REAL" lawyer. REAL lawyers don't quit just before a hearing because they can't win.

I seriously cannot recommend this man enough! I hired James about 8 months ago to help me get my…read morechildren back from two separate fathers (so TWO custody battles). At the time it looked bleak, but today I have sole custody of BOTH daughters and I owe it all to him. James is incredibly professional, but also very kind and patient. I will admit, initially I was worried that his mannerisms would be a downfall (I thought I needed a shark) but I am happy to admit I was wrong. James may not be loud and in your face, but his legal know-how and calm demeanor is actually his biggest strengths. He knows what advice to offer and in a courtroom setting he knows when to object and what to say without being off-putting to the judge. I have dealt with 6 different attorneys over the last year and James is by far the most effective. His retainer is fair and unlike 99% of other lawyers, he doesn't try to run up your expenses with pointless tasks. He's reasonable, flexible and cares about the outcome. I will be eternally grateful for everything he has done for my family.

I approached this firm about a half a year ago and spoke with Emily Shack Esq. about my filing for…read moresocial security disability. She told me to give it a go by myself and come back if they decline me. When I called her back after I got a decline from SSI, she did not want to take my case because I am not an easy case. I do have 20 years of doctor's visits in this country to substantiate my case and illness, but I could clearly see that Emily did not want to put any effort in helping me, but was just looking for easy money. I can definitely not recommend her nor this law firm for lack of enthusiasm and also lack of knowledge about various illnesses. If you have specific illnesses, look for an attorney with experience with those, and someone who really wants to help, and not just take the easy cases.

Our attorney was Derek Snelling after being hit from the rear while stopped in traffic by a young…read morewoman who failed to correctly identify herself. It took over a year for Derek Snelling to establish her identity. Now after three years we decided to not proceed with trial due to our lack of confidence in Mr. Snelling this resulted in our taking a loss in recovering some medical bills and resulted in a settlement which is an insult since my wife needed surgery after the accident. Now as we wait for the settlement check we find that my wife's settlement check and all of her medical records have been sent to the wrong address ,this level of incompetence should not be trusted. We feel that our case was handled almost at a level of malpractice if not at that level

They have a lawyer named John Reagan here. Refuse to use him. He is the worst Ive ever heard of…read morewith the worst record and reputation. Insist on any other attorney than him. He allowed evidence be destroyed and I believe knows all about it too. He refused to give my client file over and when he did he removed all the rest of evidence that was exculpatory. He's the worst of the worst. Do not use him and use this post as reasoning to force the court to give you anyone else.
