I hired Mr. Sessums for a civil lawsuit, and the entire experience was awful.
At the foundation, Mr. Sessums cares more about penny pinching - every scheduled appointment, he was completely silent, waiting for me to ask questions! I was in an abusive situation and had no idea what to navigate and how - and yet he did not lead anything, merely to take advantage of me and knew I didn't have any direction on the matter, and would go on and on for hours letting me ask questions - thousands and thousands in his pocket. Even the phone assistants would be charging me when I merely called to ask about setting up appointments, and started asking me questions about my situation after I hired him as a lawyer - and would end up billing me for it!
Mediation was a joke - he didn't even show up and had his assistant show up, to which I ended up LOSING everything I hired him for. I paid my abusive husband $75,000 to settle our home that I paid every single penny for, and had to buy him out - to which Mr. Sessums had zero help, strategy, or assistance. I spent over $40,000 billing hours on gathering financials and ended up spending $3,000 in mediation alone funded all by me, negotiated by my ex, while his assistant had ZERO credibility or strategy. If I had a better lawyer who didn't care about my money, I wouldn't be abused to this day by my ex-husband who continues to harass me, and Mr. Sessums had no comments at the end of all this, other than that I was a difficult client!
