I was stunned when I read the review from Karin F. When I moved to Easton almost 17 years ago,…read morefrom another state, I knew I needed to "get" a new will. I try to spend my money with women and located Ann. I am a very picky individual, and have a J.D. - law degree, although I never practiced law. I expected to have a difficult time finding an attorney who would value my input. Ann was very kind. understanding and professional. . Ann focused on what she needed to do the job. Attorneys are often paid by the hour; I appreciated that she was probably trying to minimize the bill I would ultimately have to pay. Over the years I have consulted her on some other issues and found her knowledgeable, thorough and most prompt and with responses. Understanding is a two-way street. Karin should have realized that the questions an attorney asks that begins with why -- is the how the attorney gets the information they (the attorney) needs; it is not a judgement of the client's wishes. The client should answer the questions. I assume that Karin is not in any way familiar with the law and processes governing the issue she brought to Ann Goodman. An attorney is not a miracle worker -- they have to follow the applicable laws and ethical code that all practicing attorneys are governed by. From the tone of the review Karin wrote and posted, perhaps she is the one who had the rude attitude while asking for help from a professional.

We were subjected to her condescending attitude, and she refused to listen to our wishes and we felt railroaded.

I initially consulted Rusz legal services on 9/28/24 for my divorce. I was disappointed at how my…read morecase was handle, and I wasn't represented well by the Attorney who was assigned to my case. I was assigned to attorney Taylor J Kane to handle my case. I just recently found out after filing a grievance that she mentioned she was a contracting attorney. Nothing was mentioned about her affiliation with this law firm that she was a contracting attorney. Also, it wasn't clarify to me that I will need to contact Rusz legal directly for any concerns I have about my case. When I assumed that Taylor Kane was assigned to my case she should be my contact person during the proceedings. And whom I have being communicating with during her representation until I asked her to withdraw from my case. She was in charge of my case until I noticed some discrepancies with documents she claimed she filed in court. Which on my statement it said they were drafted and I was billed for those services and none were filed in the court system . Attorney Kane only filed discovery and interrogatories. I had a pre trial on 3/28/26. Taylor Kane didn't show up for that trial. Instead she assigned her colleague who I get to find out doesn't work for Rusz legal services on the day of the trial whom I have never worked with in the past. I tried reaching out to Taylor Kane About concerns I have for my upcoming pre trial. Because she tried to change my pre trial date without my consent. I knew after she had filed to change the date and the court denied it. So I asked her what can be done. She waited until the morning of my trial and told me she was sending someone to represent me. On 4/29/25 I had my second pre trial because the opponent failed to appear at the first pre trial on 3/28/25. When the opponent showed up he was asking for things I didn't felt was right. And was not going to be in my favor. Because he never turned in full financial disclosures. Therefore, I asked I want to go to trial instead. Attorney Kane was trying to force me to settle with the opponent's request. She told me trials are expensive that if I were in California my claims didn't matter and she doesn't care she is gonna be paid if I chose to move to trial. once I found out that some of the documents she had claimed were done and was never filed in court and her making that comments. Which I felt was inappropriate. I immediately asked her to withdraw from my case. Because it seemed like she didn't have my best interest. I proceed to hire a new counsel for my case on 5/5/25. my new counsel entered on 6/18/25. I asked that my files are transferred to my new counsel. Attorney Kane failed to transfer my files on time. Claiming that she was just a contracting attorney for Rusz legal services and Rusz legal should have done the transfer to my new counsel. I tried several times reaching Rusz legal about my files to be transferred. And everytime they will refer me back to Attorney Kane and Mentioned they have notify her about my request. My trial date was on 8/28/25. My files were not turned in to my new counsel until 8/12/25. Which caused for my other counsel to not prepared enough to represent me well. Taylor kane also didn't complete my short financial form correctly. Which was rejected and I found out about that on day of trial by the judge. because it wasn't correctly done: this caused a lot of procedural errors on my divorce decree. That made me felt a lot dissatisfied about this firm's attorneys that are assigned to represent your case.

Peter O'Neill I honestly don't know how to thank my attorney…read more(Murnane & O'Neill in Glen Burnie) enough for what Peter did for me. When we went to my pre-trial, the State's Attorney came at me with additional charges that included the possibility of jail time. Walking out of that courtroom, I felt like my world had been turned upside down. For months, I barely slept. Every night I worried about what was going to happen to me and what it would mean for my family. To make things even more stressful, my trial was scheduled right in the middle of a long-planned family vacation. I was supposed to leave the vacation a day early just to make it back for court. When my attorney found out, he immediately went to work and was able to get my trial moved up before we left. That alone took a huge weight off my shoulders. Then came the day that changed everything. He stood up for me, fought for me, and got every single charge dropped. Hearing those words lifted a burden that I had been carrying for months. I can't describe the relief I felt. That night, for the first time in a very long time, I slept peacefully. He didn't just represent me--he truly cared about me as a person. He gave me hope when I was scared, confidence when I was overwhelmed, and ultimately gave me my life back. I will never forget what he did for me, and I will be forever grateful. If you are looking for an attorney who is compassionate, dedicated, and will fight tirelessly for you, I recommend him without any hesitation; I can't thank him enough. Bless you and your team Peter, and thank you for your hard work, I can't tell you how much I appreciate you- Most Sincerely and Respectfully- Steve

Ms. Clark was wonderful with provided information and listening to my concerns. This senior paralegal knows her stuff and makes sure she retrieves all proper information to build your case.

Provided wonderful referrals inwhich I received great care. My direct attorney who handles my case was Ronald Katz. When I was unable to get in contact with Ms. Clark, Ron made sure I knew he was available any time via phone or email. One of them was always available to answer questions or concerns. Ron provided a quick response and was persistent to reach insurance companies. We had some issues receiving response from the insurance company and Ron made sure to keep me updated every attempt he made. Ron looked out for my case and made sure I was receiving the best offer. Ron was clear every step of the way making sure I understood the next step if I was unhappy with my offer.

They have joined the Lopez family as their attorney. I will seek their service in the future if I require them. Thank you again!

When an attorney from another firm tells you how exceptional Clint Allgair is, you are impressed with your choice of representation.
