A bit disappointing. The settlement I received was ok and all the people were friendly, but it came…read moreat a price. I didn't feel as if i were a priority to them - which considering what they earned for so few hours and such little negotiation imo - was surprising. I was in an accident where a car hit me as I was walking on the sidewalk. Open and shut case. Even though the perpetrator had no insurance, I had uninsured motorist so it was simply a matter of collecting from my insurance company. Imo, there was very little or no negotiating. My real complaint is that I wasn't kept informed of anything. I would have to call Melanokos every few weeks to find out what was going on (after several months elapsed first). Then they would take action and typically say, "Oh, we have to file so and so at a different place." They didn't know. This happened 3x. I never even knew the case was settled until I got a letter in the mail from my insurance company. No excuse for that. And then 3 months later I received my settlement.Also, when you sign with a firm, make sure the percentage they take is only from what YOU GET...As an example, if you agree to pay the firm 35% and your settlement is 200k dollars, make sure their 35% commission is from what you RECEIVE, because if you owe say, Medicare, the law firm might have to pay Medicare 25k (or whatever) before the law firm gives you your money. So it's 175k you get, and then they take out their 35%, but they take 35% of 200K and not the 175k lol. Why? I never would've signed up for that if i knew. I'm paying Medicare the money, and then the law firm is taking 35% of my TOTAL settlement (i.e. 200k)? So I'm paying 135% of what i owe Medicare? How ridiculous. I probably ended up with a bit more using Melanokos than if i did it myself, but not worth the aggravation, "extra" payment, and basically no communication from them - unless it was initiated by me. Not for me.

I've reached out to present my side to him to avoid wasting his, my, and the court's time and was told by the receptionist he would not meet. His client wants to go to court. We had mediation scheduled by law today. He didn't show. He knows it won't get dismissed today, but I'd have to go. Likely, he'll show next time to continue the process. That's exactly what I'd want my attorney to do if I'm the client. So, being objective and fair minded, and recognizing the job of an attorney, I can respect the games often played through the court system. Although on opposing sides, I can still acknowledge and respect the job he's doing for his client and hope he'd do that for any of his clients.

Eventually, after a few kids, we knew we needed to move forward with the process. After working with AVP, I'm shocked we didn't do this sooner. They unpacked every word of legal jargon to make it as clear and simple as possible. They were kind, patient and communicated clearly with us every step of the way. I can't describe the relief my wife and I feel knowing that this process has been taken care of, and knowing our Will is in good hands. They've been a joy to work with, and they provide excellent service at an affordable rate! I can't recommend AVP enough.
