    I called this office to request a consultation meeting. I was told that Mr. Shaw was not available for several weeks and not available.

It's uncomfortable to think about awful possibilities, but the wonderful GLG team got us through it. We feel confident and secure, knowing we are thoroughly prepared for the unexpected. A recent serious illness rocked our family, but one worry we didn't have was "what if" because we have a plan. We can't recommend the firm enough!

I ended up wasting six months and about $4K, paid in fees, with no outcome with Geller Law. I was first requested to have a mandatory paid initial consultation session to go over my legal help needed. I was introduced to Julie S. during this session. After describing my specific case & needs, she informed me that Geller Law can handle my case. What followed was months of emotional stress & redundant conversations with the staff of this firm that yielded no results. It became clear to me that they didn't know how to legally handle my case. Some staff members were argumentative & appeared trying to take advantage of this emotional situation for me. There were redundant conversations that I was later billed for. I concluded that this firm is not the choice that can handle my case professionally. I terminated my work with them. The new law firm I selected to handle my case turned out to be more knowledgeable for my case. And, more compassionate with me. The process was handled smoothly & professionally to completion.

From the day we were notified he died, the law firm was extremely helpful in answering questions for us. We live in New York and were not able to get to Maryland for three weeks due to severe weather conditions. All our calls and emails were promptly and professionally answered, which gave us time to get many things accomplished from home until we were able to travel to Maryland. We asked if they could recommend a good real estate agent, we didn't want to pick one at random. We were told the founder of Adams Law Office, Suren Adams, is also the founder of Adams Realty and they would put us in touch with someone. Soon after, Suren Adams called us about the sale of the house. We asked her to meet us at the house during our visit so we could list the property with her. We had a good discussion, during which she recommended an excellent clean out company and made an appointment for them to meet us at the house to arrange for the clean out. Suren arrived for our appointment with all the necessary paperwork, made some notes about the property and explained the process to us. Honestly, not only were we very impressed, but she seemed so friendly and personable, it was like talking to a friend. We contacted her after the clean out was complete. She hired a contractor to make cosmetic renovations to prepare the house for sale. The house looked amazing! Once we received an offer, she explained the steps required prior to the closing and guided us every step of the way. We felt reassured having a lawyer as a real estate broker to go over all the documents of the sale. Everything was explained in phone calls and emails. Even though we live in another state we had complete peace of mind and total trust and confidence in Suren's handling of the property. I cannot say enough good things about the Adams Law Office and Adams Realty firms. It's clear to me, from our personal experience, that both firms, under the leadership of Suren Adams, strive for excellence and are very attentive to their clients needs. I highly recommend using their professional services without hesitation. If I have one regret, it's that we live in New York and will not be able to use the Adams Law Office to execute a Trust for our family.

In the document review, Ms. Sizer indicated that I should file a specific document related to a trust. My brother would need to sign this document. Since he was coming into the area from out of town, I emailed Ms. Sizer to ask her to send me the document for his signature. I finally got a response from Ms. Sizer after three emails and three phone discussions with her staff over about two weeks. This was part of her response, "As a solo practitioner, I am not able to prepare and provide documents on demand. I give each matter the due diligence it requires and address matters in turn so that every client receives careful and timely attention. Because this approach does not always align with timelines a client may wish to set, I believe it is best to conclude my representation so that you may continue with other counsel who can meet your needs going forward." If Ms. Sizer had responded promptly, this could have been avoided. If she needed more time, she could have let me know. Instead, she chose to remain silent. I have been a practicing attorney for thirty-five years. I hope that she learns that client communication is important.

Because of the expertise, professionalism, and compassion of the Farr Law Firm I was able to meet with attorney Farr quickly and be apprised of my options. In short order, the firm, through Jeannie, helped me place my mother in a nearby, highly rated nursing home in Virginia (NOT an easy task) and supported me through several Medicare appeals regarding the initial part of Mom's care. Other members of the Elder Law Team, paralegals Seresa and Grace, provided total support for a successful Medicaid application, complicated by a claim for a Medicaid Caregiver Exemption for my brother. Grace continues to provide exceptional service on all matters big and small. She is professional and expert in explaining and implementing the steps in the process of qualifying for eligibility and protecting assets. She is knowledgeable and reassuring in examining the what-ifs of different complicated scenarios. She was stalwart in responding in those rare instances of nursing home billing errors when the corporate "tone" became unnecessarily adversarial. I cannot sufficiently express my gratitude for her help whenever needed. My mother's estate is modest. With the help of the Farr Law Firm her assets are protected to the greatest extent permissible, far more than I imagined and that I could have achieved on my own. Most importantly, because of attorney Farr's expertise my mother's wishes regarding my brother were able to be honored. The fees of the Farr Law Firm are extremely fair given the results they are able to achieve. I continue to retain their excellent services.

We provided our contact information as required. Over a week later, no response (no phone call or voicemail and no email, and yes we checked our spam and promotions folders). Attached is a screenshot after submitting the webform showing it was received and "We will get back to you as soon as possible!" It's obvious by now they are not going to respond. The professional thing to do is respond even if they don't feel they can help us, instead of simply ignoring the inquiry. And there are no excuses such as: "We never check inquiries via our website." If that's the case then remove the webform from your website. "We prefer that inquiries are made over the phone." If that's the case then again, remove the webform from your website. "The employee responsible for checking the online inquiries forgot to do it." The employee should be counseled about the potential loss of business to the law firm by such inattentive behavior. "We read your inquiry and decided we can't or won't help you, for whatever reason." The professional and responsive thing to do in this case is to simply communicate that to the person who submitted the inquiry.
