    I am not sure if this Melissa L has her wits about her. I have had Attorney Best represent me in…read moremany legal affairs with exceptional results. never have I felt pressured to do anything I did not agree with. Ms. Best explained thoroughly all of my options and offered to me what she thought would be the best route to go. I trust her implicitly. She is exceedingly ethical and is every regard a credit to her profession. By reading Melissa L's review, it seems to me that she is angered more by the situation that she put herself in, and when she was presented with the solutions to her issues, she got angry that they were not what she expected. I look at this review as noting more than vindictive, mean and ultimately, "sour grapes." I will use and recommend Attorney Best as often as I can.

    This lady is awful stay away from her she works against you she was buddies with the opposing side…read moreand pushed me into things she had no patience no compassion and I honestly felt bullied into making choices. Now today I just find out of a court date and the fact that I was ordered to pay half of the fees my ex paid who I have a restraining order on and who doesn't even feed my child when he is by him but yet this lawyer seems to do nothing other then not even bother to notify me of court dates or anything for that matter. She is out for one thing to take your money and do as little as possible. She never listened to me or even bothered to pretend she cared about me and my son all she did was give me attitude and push me to make decisions in favor of the opposing side. This lady is a very unethical and disgusting excuse for a lawyer and please do not throw your money and case away on her.

    RUN! SAVE YOURSELF TIME AND MONEY. My experience with this attorney was extremely disappointing…read morefrom start to finish. I consistently felt underrepresented while being heavily overbilled. A perfect example: I was billed more time for him forwarding an email than the Guardian ad Litem billed for writing the entire thing. That wasn't a one-off -- this kind of disproportionate billing happened multiple times and quickly added up. His Zoom appearances were also incredibly unprofessional. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the camera was pointed up his nose for a large portion of the hearing. The other attorney suit and tie, we'll setup... Mine the inside of his nose.... The setup looked careless, the appearance was slovenly, and the overall presentation did not inspire confidence -- especially considering for that 15 minute status conference where he ignored my requests, and the judge commented that if the next court date would be similar lets just do it via zoom. That was if memory servers a greater than $1000 dollar 15 minute appearance. So, It is my feeling that I had to have been charged for him getting dressed too. Between the lack of advocacy, the excessive and uneven billing, and the unprofessional virtual presence, I cannot recommend this attorney to anyone. I regret hiring him and I feel he did nothing to help. He made 1 appearance in physical court room for a 15 minute status conference. I dont believe he drafted a single motion, got me yelled at by the commissioner for filing a letter, and for this I was charged ~7k. Do not give him a retainer. I hope others avoid the same experience.

    This attorney was completely unprofessional from start to finish. He laid down during my wife's…read morevisit in his office. He sent a non-notarized version of our prenup to the other attorney, resulting in the other attorney spending more time trying to get things sent again the correct way. He failed to properly charge my wife's credit card, resulting in an additional call. He raised his voice with me on the phone multiple times, even hanging up on me. He charged a $1100 retainer for reviewing a simple (13 page) prenup, then asked for even more money on the back end! The attorney that drafted the agreement gave us a refund on his already smaller retainer. So apparently attorney Zeckel needs more time to read a document than other attorneys do to create one. Stay FAR AWAY from this guy.

    To start this review, I need to provide some background. My folks are buying a house that is FSBO…read moreso they needed to find a lawyer. My ma has been trying to reach multiple real estate lawyers with no luck- not even a call back. To say she was getting frazzled is an understatement. I reached out on a whim to see if I could make a connection. After a quick conversation with the receptionist I was connected to Steve Schmidt. He spent over 30min (free of charge) on the phone with me -the daughter, not even the potential client- explaining the buyers side of a FSBO deal and how he can help. He spoke in terminology that made the process easy to understand and a stressful situation seem tangible. Excitedly, I pass Steve Schmidt's number on to my ma. He exceeded my expectations on the phone, but after he handled the process with my folks he set the bar (ha! pun intended) exceedingly high for any other lawyer. He has handled them as peers and treated them with patience. He is always quick to respond and forth coming about his availability (let them know he was on vacation and when he'd return). He took the time to explain a scary process for my folks who haven't bought a house in more than 30 years in a way that calmed nerves and wasn't belittling. I suppose as cliche as it is, this review is more of a public "thank you". Thank you Steve for all your help and kindness. My folks are excitingly closing on their house in a few weeks and couldn't have done it without you!
