I'm glad I did. They made it as easy as it could possibly be. They took over the communications, kept me in the loop every step of the way, made sure to answer me promptly each and every time, and happily explained things I didn't understand. It was about as painless as one could hope for in this situation. Most importantly they got me paid out like they promised. I cannot thank them enough.

I contacted Thomas in November the day after I got arrested for a DUI…read more Thomas had accepted my call for help and immediately worked with me to create a plan on what to do for the coming months as I was awaiting my trial. Throughout the following months, Thomas gave me a number of recommendations to help me with my case and to re-evaluate myself and put myself on the right path towards bettering myself as a person. As the months had ticked away towards my trial, Thomas made sure to check in and give me and my family any updates he had regarding the case whether it was with the courts or with the DMV. About halfway to my court date, Thomas argued my case to the DMV and won my case with DMV, and Thomas was able to secure my license back. Fast forward to today, my final verdict with the court was that both my DUI charges were dismissed and I only received a wet reckless with only a 12 hour class and paying a $300 fine. No Jail time, no license suspension, and no other penalties. The work I had put in during those months of waiting for my trial had paid off and I cannot express how glad I am Thomas had me start those meetings early on. I truly feel Thomas had prepared me for everything I was going to face in this trial and was by my side every step of the way making sure that I was on the right trajectory to get my second chance. Before I had contacted Thomas, the reviews I read online were extremely positive and those reviews are a proper reflection of the work that he did for me!

I was arrested for a felony hit and run, which injured a pedestrian. The prosecutor demanded from…read morea court that I serve months in jail. I am a nurse and I thought that would be the end of my life and my career. It was the darkest time in my life that I lost trust in the system and humans. During this time, I found and retained attorney Thomas Fleming. He assured me everything would be ok. Throughout the legal process, Thomas guided me every step, recommending a number of activities that are good for my case, and also helped me grow as a person. Thomas then used these activities and my growth in court as one of many reasons why the court should give me a second chance despite any mistakes I may have made. Thomas then asked the judge to divert and dismiss my case. The prosecutor strongly objected to this. But, amazingly, the judge believed and agreed with Thomas, and granted his request to divert and dismiss my case. Amazing but true, the court dismissed my case at his request! Thomas then filed a motion to seal any record of my arrest, the court granted as well! Thomas has a lot of faith. I found him to be a smart, trustworthy, honest, professional, compassionate and genuinely cared for me as a person. He got to know me and my family as well. He always wanted the best for me, it showed in the result. God bless Thomas!

This law firm will steal all of your money blatantly with no remorse. Beware!!!!…read more I was promised that my case were simple domestic violence and divorce would take $10,000-$15,000 max they started out with Miss Dost who was professional kind, caring, and attentive to the case and the billing was so minimal as time progressed in the beginning and then here comes the bait and switch the main Attorney steps in and sees that I actually have money to pay for my attorneys fees. All he did is ask me questions about my financial position and getting to know me and that is when I saw him start to go to work on me not my case. I got an email from a lady in the law firm demanding an additional $5000 so I looked at my bill and saw that Paul had reviewed my case for strategic planning and execution November 4, $3000 charge out of my account which I thought was very steep, and what did he do to charge that amount of money was a question to me. In December we where to have a phone conference which he postponed for a later date and I accepted, but when I spoke to him about my case he knew absolutely nothing about the case, none of the details and then tells me that "he didn't have my file in front of him", and the phone call kept dropping and trying different method to communicate which he was still charging me Before. I immediately wrote an email to the whole entire law firm, expressing my concerns about the lack of knowledge and preparation in a detailed itemized list, then reflecting back on what he charged me for a month prior was "strategizing and reviewing the case". So I asked Paul the question how could you charge me $3000 and then 30 days later you know nothing about the case?? He assured me, (Paul) that he likes to get familiar with the case right before the court date that way it's fresh in his mind and do not worry I will not double charge you. Not only was he still not prepared at the court date he was studying in the hallway and jotting down notes. He then was delivering to the court and to my ex-wife false information that I had to correct him on in the courtroom. While questioning me on the stand he also asked me questions to clarify dates and he had the dates wrong in his questions that I had to clarify on the stand. At the end of all this he charged me double again!!!! When I confronted him about the double charge, (because they requested an additional $15,000 which would put me at $30,000 and we still haven't even finished the domestic violence) He had his Hinchman bill collector office lady call me demanding the funds and said, "well it's your right to have representation and if you don't want it come pick up your things or I will mail them to you"! Paul finally got on the phone after a week or two of me demanding his presence and an explanation for these charges. He argued with me and said "I don't even remember your ex-wife's name right now, we are guaranteed to forget, so if I charged you for it back then and I forgot...... it's legal services that I provide and I'm not giving you any money back". As a business owner I replied to him... "can you imagine if I told you that I put in an air-conditioning unit at your home and it's guaranteed to not work, but I'm going to charge you for it anyways. I was dumbfounded by his response!! All of the email responses that were supposed to go over to my ex and her lawyer, when I received all my documents nothing was communicated only three responses at the beginning of the case they prolonged the case along with Joanne Scheinberg law firm to exploit myself and my ex-wife and misappropriate the funds. One of the court appearances Paul said so loudly "this law firm (speaking of Joanne Scheinberg) are crooks!. All they want to do is want to take your money". I think the judge heard him!! He said it so loud and the Attorney for Johnn Steinberg smirked and looked at Paul as they locked eyes. I'm going to spend a lot of time and effort and energy to expose this law firm along with Joanne Steinberg. It is criminal what they are doing. I fired Next Leagl and represented myself the next trial. They didn't even give me my documents to the day of my hearing in the morning. They have no regard for you as a person. All they want is your money do not fall for the bait and switch this Attorney comes to court even in a dirty suit, uncut hair and bad breath, it was the worst experience of my life. And I deal with many attorneys in my day-to-day business. This is by far the worst law firm ever. And they will be exposed. Anyone with questions or validation of these claims. Please reach out directly and I will provide all documentation so you can see the truth for yourself run from this law firm protect yourself from this scam.
