I hired Sarah to represent me on a case in Jerseyville Il. only after I kept it continuing for over…read more2 years. Her prices were $7500 and if it went to trial $10,000. Cost aside service was horrible she didn't really do anything for me I basically paid her $7,500 to accept the same deal that the public defender already offered me and then before I even accepted the deal I was trying to have her negotiate a few points for me but she wouldn't stand her ground I guess is what it was something she then proceeded to tell me that I needed to hurry up and make up my mind she was tired of making the trip from her office all the way to the courthouse. And then after I accepted the deal and had to do some weekends but there were some clerical errors I would say on the courts behalf and I had questions and I needed her to address the court for me or call the assistant State's Attorney or whatever she basically told me about no she did tell me she's no longer on my case the case has been settled and that's it she's not my lawyer anymore but if I'm not mistaken I paid lawyer is to represent you until the case is dismissed closed or you've been found guilty you know what I mean like I don't understand just because I signed a piece of paper saying it that I'll be on two years probation my case wasn't over she's horrible at her job she doesn't have the nerve to stand up and fight for her clients because my case was illegal search and seizure wrongly accused then that was used against me to in their eyes be able to search my vehicle and then give me bogus charges and she she was willing she said to go to trial but of course I'd had to pay 2500 more dollars and that's not including the hourly rate after that so it was 10,000 just to go to trial and then it was attorney fees and filing fees and all that on top of it so you can see how someone that had a public defender for 2 years and continued the case couldn't afford an attorney really didn't have the money to really go to trial but let alone pay all them fees so you see how somebody can just basically get bullied into accepting the deal and just do not hire this lady stay away from me they're Law Firm

We recently had a family member pass away and her estate was in disarray. As the Executor, and…read moreliving out of state, we didn't feel we had the knowledge to undertake all the necessary steps to resolve her estate. Luckily, through a search on Yelp and Google we contacted Scott. Now we know how refreshing it is to work with an Attorney that provides clear answers, the correct steps to comply with Missouri Probate law.....AND who actually returns e-mails and phone calls promptly. Would strongly recommend!!

You can never be too prepared or have too much insurance. It was time to put together my Trust and…read moreLegacy Law helped me every step of the way. The team is very responsive and the process was started quickly. I was sent questionnaires regarding assets, beneficiaries, healthcare wishes, etc. I was able to return these and within a few days had a phone appointment with Charles Moore. We discussed what I was looking for, what I was hoping to get out of the process, my health care wishes, and my wishes for my beneficiaries. Within a week or so, I had an appointment to come in and go over my documents. This was meant to ensure everything was to my exact specifications. The team worked quickly, and at a competitive price to ensure the peace of mind I am looking for.

We had a pleasant experience; not only did they return calls, they also called when they said they were going to call. No one wants to talk about their last wishes, but dealing with it now so our loved ones will not have to during a more stressful time is definitely the way to go. (Chuck) was professional and really spent the time to explain all the moving parts so my husband and I could understand the legal jargon. I could not write a 5 star review without saying how impressed I am with Melissa, she is always professional and available to help, I have no reservations recommending Legacy Law Center.

My experience with Megan Nolan as a Guardian ad Litem was profoundly unfair and unprofessional…read more She refused to review or include critical evidence I provided, declined to conduct any meaningful investigation, and would not visit my home despite repeated requests. This evidence was significant enough that my own attorneys acknowledged it and attempted to correct the record, yet she still refused to include it in her report. I was also denied equal access. When I asked for additional time to speak with her, I was refused, while the opposing party was given considerably more hours. This unequal treatment created a strong appearance of bias and prejudgment. A Guardian ad Litem is ethically obligated to remain neutral, investigate all relevant facts, and act in the child's best interests. In my case, Ms. Nolan failed in these duties, issued a one-sided recommendation, and harmed the outcome of my case. I also personally overheard her office staff speaking disrespectfully about an elderly client and discussing matters related to that client's will in a way that felt inappropriate and unprofessional. Based on my experience, I believe her conduct was unethical and below the professional standards expected of a Guardian ad Litem.
