Needless to say this was around 630 pm on a weeknight and David Tidd contacted me. I was in shock that a lawyer contacted me so quickly. We set up an appointment to get together and discuss our situation. David answered all of my questions and did not sugar coat anything. David was was also easy to work with. He let me know what I needed in order to file and helped us along the way. I even had a lag of time in between months where we had to wait to get an appraisal on our home done due to finances and he did not forget about us. We filed in December and had our trustee appointment in February and the case was signed off on in the same day. Most likely due to the fact that David had everything filled out as it should be and no T was left uncrossed or I was left un-dotted. David was great to work with; he understood the situation and showed compassion. Where most lawyers just want to get your money and and be done, this was not the case for David. I would use David again and I will also highly recommend him to my friends and family. M

Personally, they were great for me.

I was told, once I signed on that my ex would be served within 2 days or so. A month later nothing happened. When I asked, I was told they would follow up and I was charged for asking the question.

My new attorney got things done within 2 months. They wasted 3 months of my time.

This will be the most honest and fair review you will read. Dan wants to think he is a nice guy and…read morehonestly in a different situation absolutely he would be the guy that you would hang out with in the summer, bbq with and have a beer with. If that is what you are looking for in an attorney by all means hire him. But if you want one that will fight for you as if his life is on the line, he is NOT the lawyer for you. If you have a DUI and if its even your 3rd DUI you get, I am sure Dan can get you out of it and cut a deal for you. He is very good at deals, as he should be because he is best buds with the guys in the DA's office. That being said, if you think you may have to go trial, don't hire him. He doesn't tell you that, but I will. Dan isn't a trial attorney and he will do things to get a deal that limits you if you decide the deal they offering isn't fair. My experience is that the WHOLE system in Berk County is corrupt. The prosecution doesn't care about truth and defense attorneys only care about getting paid. So they work together and sometimes that is a good thing but other times its not so good. When you watch the attorney you hired being best buds with the prosecution you don't really trust you life to them. Now to be fair Emily is incredible! Without her Dan wouldn't appear half as good as he comes across. Dan has a way making you think he is telling the truth, but I caught him in a few lies. The issue is that Dan is so good at lying, I think he believes his own lies. And if I had not known the truth i would have easily believed him. He is a smooth talker and he prides him self on being able to read people, so if you think he isn't reading you and playing you, you are crazy. So you will read plenty of reviews that will tell you how great Dan is, and maybe he will be for you, but I know if I had to do it over again I would not hire him. My advice is to proceed with caution. I know if you are looking for an attorney you are scared and in a scary situation and feel pressure to get help quickly. Take a breath and remember that the court system moves slow so you at least have couple of days to a week to find a good attorney. Any good attorney will be straight with you, allow you to ask questions, and be open to a free consultation. So do some research on what is going on, and get multiple opinions and prices. Then give yourself some time to think before making a decision. That's where I messed up, I did things based out of fear and that is never good. I wish you the best

I had recently transitioned through the divorce process, which was finalized last week. My now…read moreex-husband and I split the cost to hire Joseph Gulliama as the attorney of choice. While he got the job done effectively, there was no encouragement or reassurance provided during a sensitive life transition. I felt the interactions were almost cold and unfeeling due to being overly task focused and professional. While he effectively completed the process in a timely manner, I personally felt a bit uncomfortable at the seeming lack of compassion demonstrated. The task driven professionalism made an already sensitive time a bit heavier to carry. I'd recommend this attorney if you're strictly task driven, but not if you're seeking to feel like a partner through difficult times.

Our infant granddaughter was the victim of a horrific crime committed by her mother, our daughter…read more After our other 2 gdaughters were removed from their parent's custody, we sought visitation. Opposing counsel informed him from the start they wanted us gone. The close relationship he has with opposing counsel took priority over representing us. (he mentioned it many, many times) I was accused, by them of seeing injuries on my gdaughter and ignoring them. The fact of the matter is I was banned from seeing her because I had called the police to check on her. He did nothing to stop them from repeatedly making this false, slanderous lie. (numerous times to the judge ) They falsified reports which he easily could have disputed by simply requesting records but he refused to do so. An evaluation I had by a doctor contained OVER 3 1/2 DOZEN errors, all of which I can prove. (Eval even said I was violent/suicidal when i have NO history of either) He did absolutely nothing. He filed incorrect motions. He did nothing each time the other side was caught lying. The other side said I was rude to our gdaughter's adoptive parents. And I was. I literally feared saying anything to them, knowing opposing counsel wanted us gone and had stooped to slinging lies and false accusations against us.

Using this firm was one of the WORST mistakes I made in my divorce. When I first talked to…read moreAttorney Banks, he stated that I would receive a response within 2 business days. During my 9 month time with this firm, this was a rarity. The normal response time was at least a week and sometimes even longer. My attorney was 90 minutes late for our first two appointments and the second one I did not receive any communication that he was going to be late. Because of the delayed response time and being tardy for my appointments, Attorney Banks talked to me and assured that this would not happen again and I would receive much quicker responses. We also talked about me receiving a credit of $150 because of this experience. The next day I reached out to my attorney asking for a simple response and didn't get a response within two days so I texted the main number and Attorney Banks. He called me back that day with an attitude and accused me of being passive aggressive. Unfortunately, the responses continued to be extremely delayed. According to my ex-wife's attorney, they never received any of my recent financial statements that I had provided to the firm months ago. I finally decided to share all of these documents and updated spreadsheet to my ex-wife. Less than a week later, my lawyer stated that they agreed to this offer with 3 minor changes. I emailed my lawyer stating that I was fine with these changes. Learned over a week later that he never got back to my ex-wife's lawyer so I made the changes myself and emailed it to both lawyers. My ex-wife lawyer stated that he could not do anything based on emails from me since I still had representation. Because of this, I fired my lawyer at this firm and finalized the details on my own. I never received my $150 credit and took almost two months to get my remaining retainer returned to me. DO NOT USE THIS FIRM!

Every time something came up on my end I always contacted my attorney by email, voicemails, text messages updating him with anything and everything. The funny thing is they reached out to me...
