If you need a lawyer that knows the law and does his homework, then you should look elsewhere. He charged me a ton of money, mismanaged my case then abandoned me causing significant financial and emotional damage. He misrepresents is skills and doesn't communicate with clients or other lawyers in a respectful fashion. I ended up having to defend myself in court when he failed to show up. A complaint was filed with the California Bar Association. AVOID AT ALL COSTS,

Mr. Kelly was beyond helpful, professional, knowledgeable and put our very stressed minds at ease.

1. The litigation process took way longer than I ever imagined. In my case it took over one and a…read morehalf years to settle my case WITH A VERY, VERY GOOD OUTCOME, THANKS TO MY ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT ATTORNEYS, Michael D. Green and Brian G. Lance. And they kept me updated every step of the way via emails and phone calls... so that I could concentrate on dealing with my PAINFUL medical problems. 2. Michael D. Green and Brian G. Lance have two outstanding paralegals, Amanda and Kati, who added absolutely excellent depth and efficiency to the long process of marching toward an outstanding outcome. 3. How did I find Michael D. Green and Brian G. Lance so that I could initially see if they would take my case? Well, about 2 years ago, I researched online for the top 3 medical malpractice and personal injury attorneys in my area, and up came Michael D. Green of the law firm Abbey, Weitzenberg, Warren & Emery. I went to the abbeylaw.com website, and filled out the online form with as many details about my case as I could, and a few days later, attorney Brian G. Lance called me and we talked for about half an hour. I sent him all my medical records, and about 2 months later he called and told me that his expert witness said that I have a very good case. 4. Also very impressive is the fact that Michael D. Green and Brian G. Lance in the past, have also had the honor of being among the "TOP 40 ATTORNEYS UNDER FORTY" years old. 5. A HUGE, HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO Michael D. Green and Brian G. Lance of the law firm Abbey, Weitzenberg, Warren & Emery FOR TAKING MY CASE AND FIGHTING FOR AN OUTSTANDING OUTCOME.

I had a consultation back in February with Erica Copenhagen…read more She was very professional and informative. I was under the impression that there was no charge for the consultation. It wasn't until over two months later I was billed $566.67 for the consultation because I did not go with their firm. The only thing they made clear was that if I did not show up or cancel within a certain amount of time that they do charge. But they certainly did not make it clear that if you don't use the firm that they charge you for your consultation. To be clear, I would never agree to a consultation to pay $566.67 to a business that I did not know whether I would choose to do business with them or not. Erica returned my phone call today May 18, 2026. I explained the situation to her and through the course of our short conversation she consistently cut me off and talked over me. I had to ask her to please let me finish my sentence. At that point, I was informed that she was busy and had a client she had to get to but all the same she continued to over talk me on the matter. BE AWARE THEY CHARGE YOU FOR A CONSULTATION WHEN YOU DON'T USE THEIR FIRM!!!!!! And now I see backpedaling and miss information from Erica's response to me. You are not telling the truth. There's no way in hell you ever told me that there was a $566.67 charge three times. I would not have a greed to a consultation especially at that price. I don't know how many ways to phrase it to you, Erica, but it was not made clear to me that if I did not use your services, I would be charged. It's that simple. I don't expect people to work for free! By the same token, I just came in for a consultation to see if what you had to offer, was compatible to what I was looking for in a law firm.

RUN! I wish there was something lower than one star to give. I live on the East Coast, and in…read moreSeptember 2024 I needed an estate attorney to assist my Uncle in his creation (and not long after) the implementation of his Trust. Erika did not provide the necessary and proper guidance. This resulted in going through a lengthy court process which I was trying to avoid by hiring her. When I asked her specifically why I was not informed I needed to take a particular step, she said "I did inform you." Which is a blatant lie!!!! Had Erika informed me I would have taken that step - why wouldn't I? I did everything she asked. She said do this - and I did it. She said pay this - and I paid it. I was hanging onto every word, advice, and counsel - I would have jumped off a cliff had she asked me (facetiously of course). The point is - I trusted her. I was following every instruction. At the final signing I asked if there was anything left to do? She said "no." I have never been through a Trust process before and communicated my naivety numerous times. I relied on Erika's guidance but am woefully disappointed. I have never written an online negative critique before. However, I feel compelled to share my experience in hopes of keeping someone else from poor advice. My Uncle's estate was small and uncomplicated. This should never have happened. The sad truth is, had Erika just owned up to the mistake, while disappointed, I would have understood (mistakes happen), and I would have stayed with her. But to lie about it and put the blame on me is beyond wrong. Not the adult or professional thing to do. Word of advice - Erika Copenhaver presents well, however she's a wolf in sheep's clothing. She doesn't truly care as she espouses. RUN!
