He said he sent a review of the lease in writing, and he sent the lease back, but the notes included were blank. We set up a time for a phone consultation. We sent him a google calendar link to confirm, he never answered. At the appointed time he was not there. He called later and said why wern't we their. We ask for a $300 refund (not much money for a lawyer) and he refused. He had more energy in fighting the refund than he did is helping my son and daughter in law reviewing the business lease.

To quickly summarize, one of the Associate Partners, David Schwartz, representing our embezzlement…read more/probate case against my sister Lori, extorted money from us, in the amount of $6,500.00 .. Our case began nearly a year ago, when I found out that my sister was embezzling money out of my mothers account, to support her lifestyle in West Bloomfield MI.. Her name is Lori, and she is a part time meteorologist for Fox News . My mother is Delphine Pinson, and apparently he was afraid to upset her?, by refusing to request a deep dive of her checking account during his discovery process for the next hearing a year later in October 2025.. Court Case: 2024-423934-CA / Oakland County, MI. My name is Clarence Pinson, and my sister's name is Maria Harris.. Our case can be found on MiCOURT, and a variety of information and documents can be found on www.ripoffreport.com/ Case No. 1539060 I quickly realized that she had created a non- legal or bogus Conservatorship POA on my mother in 2021, when she was 93 years old with advanced dementia, and could no longer resist her demands for income.. She also rewrote her will, stating that she was an only child, and having her husband be the only beneficiary..? We quickly mapped out a plan with the lawyer to have her POA dissolved , by getting a medical report , my sister Maria was entitled to, since in December2024, she was awarded joint guardianship by the court.. On Jan.17th, 2025, I requested David to seek out the medical reports, from Sinai Hospital, (since we both reside in Northern Virginia), to disprove and dissolve the Conservatorship POA , so she would loose her primary source of income.. David, however, decided to go with an unauthorized approach, and decided to subpoena the housekeepers hired by Lori, to destroy our case in the fall.. He then decided to run up $6500.00 in expenses, and kept us in the dark about MICourt, so we wouldn't know what he was doing.. His plan , with Lori's lawyer, was to end our bid , and close down our case in favor of Lori Pinson.. ??! So, in September this year, we were able to do a transition to a more reputable firm, P & A.. Our new lawyer, once we accessed her records, (and again hidden from us by the old law firm), was Lori embezzling money out of my mother's account to finance her lawyer's fees , along with $800.00 in groceries for my mother, who eats like a bird.. ?? Of course, I contacted Chase, to reverse the extorted charges, and the Michigan State Board for a full investigation into this law firm's criminal activities .. As we continue to reslove these matters this fall I will update this report.. I have listed a few documents below for your review. I sincerely recommend you avoid doing business with this firm.

It all started when I my fiance and I had a dream in 2011 of opening our own cafe in Ferndale. We…read moreknew that it was going to take a ton of hard work, funding, planning, and consulting with knowledgeable individuals. We were gung-ho and ready to make a push, but as the old adage goes, "Life get's in the way". Weeks became months and sadly months became years... 3 years to be exact. All that being said, an opportunity arose when the local Radio Shack was moving to a new location in Detroit and the location was up for lease. We saw this as a sign and realized that it's pretty much now or never. We followed all the rules: We got a reputable real estate agent, we got an architect, we got the funding, and it finally came down to getting the lease signed. I thought to myself, I really need to find someone that knows their stuff and is trust-able. Low and behold I stumbled upon The Flannery Law Firm. Amy, the principle lawyer of the firm is incredible to say the least. Our landlord, who issued us a standard lease gave us some very tough terms on the lease to cope with. It was almost to a point where we wanted to stop the whole operation given the risk we were about to take... and then comes Amy who may as well had warpaint on her face. She completely revised the contract, analysed every single word of the contract and fought tooth and nail to get us the best possible contract we could get! My father, who is critical about everyone and everything (ESPECIALLY LAWYERS), had nothing but praise for her. This does not come easy come easy from him... as I am still waiting to hear something like that for me! (maybe I should yelp a therapist) Bottom line is that we could not be more happy with the deal she negotiated for us. She saved us tens of thousands of dollars right now and hundreds of thousands in the future. So now, our soon-to-be cafe, The Detroit Bubble Tea company in Ferndale, MI will be running smooth and happily thanks to Amy. What is the difference between Amy and the other lawyers that I have dealt with? Amy genuinely cares about our happiness and does not look at us like we are walking dollar signs. For all of those reasons, I strongly recommend her for anyone looking for an awesome business lawyer in Troy or any other city in Oakland County. Thank you Amy for all of the hard work you have done and continue to do for us.
