    Downing Law

    This review is for Jack Downing ( the son of the main attorney) . I had a consultation today and…read morelet me first start off saying that he did not motion to shake my hand. I had extend this gesture first. This attorney was very dismissive, fumbled over the rules of the law and asked me about certain aspects of the law. He had to leave for around 10-15 minutes to go look up laws and then returned with a Google print out of what I should do to file my own case. I was very confused and asked for clarification on his actions. He said that since I had th3 legal plan that he felt he gave me what the plan paid for,l and that if he wanted him to represent me, that it would be " around 300/hr , taking him 5 hours so I would need to pay $1,500. I reiterated that I had already had a judgment in favor and that I wanted him to file a motion on my behalf to the other attorney. As a physician assistant of over 20 years, and professional, please save yourself the trouble or this particular attorney who's demeanor obviously states, "I'm not happy with my life right now" and google what he will do for your case. I should also mention that we drove up at the same time for my consult and I observed his demeanor in the car before I got out. I should have followed my first mind and drove off. You've been warned!

    Let me start my saying his ratings lie. He, and I'm speaking of the son Downing is a bigot and…read morechildish and unprofessional. He sat in my living room 2 years ago and spoke with in detail my now deceased stepdad. Today his "secretary" who is also rude and unprofessional called me to ask to speak with my deceased stepdad because she was unable to contact him to tell him his house was up for auction. I asked her where she gets her information and she should know that she's calling the wrong person, especially since this office has represented multiple family members, mind you she was the one answering phones, at all occasions. She continues to press me for information in order to state in her accent "Mr Downing told me to call to tell you (I'm not the person she asked to speak too, as she fumbles her words) your house is up for auction". I hang up. I call back and ask to speak with Mr Downing (son) and the secretary proceeds to tell me ( I hear her being directed in the background) He no longer represents you he'll need $100 to speak with you. Tell me what was the purpose of calling me if that was going to be the response? I find the entire encounter despicable, unprofessional and plain sad. I will be reporting him to the office he answers too and writing more reviews concerning. My overall experience with him was mostly negative and unprofessional. He sits in his office and yells what he is not going to do. He's a bully and a disgraceful person. I will never recommend him to anyone again.

    I'll never recommend them to anyone. I would pay them not to go with them. Nonexistent of…read morecommunication and false claims and promises. I needed a new car for work and gave them paperwork only for them to submit it a week later. I'm still waiting and having to spend money for my rental car again and trustee payment that I'm afraid might be short. There's no urgency Or follow backs. To whoever is reading this from Allmand Law your feedbacks means nothing because I know you'll not make any changes.

    EDITED TO ADD- After posting this same review on Google, they literally called me dangling a…read morepartial... PARTIAL, refund of the $450 they essentially stole from me if I take the review down. Please, PLEASE, if you're reading this and desperate enough to file a bankruptcy to save your property, please seek alternative representation. These guys are straight up EVIL to their core. ORIGINAL REVIEW TEXT FOLLOWS- I would highly suggest anyone in a desperate situation to avoid this place like a plague. Their consultant told me that their retainer was 1500. A bit steep, but fine. Still, I told the consultant I didn't have that kind of saved up cash since, you know, I was considering bankruptcy and all. Then he said they'd put me on a payment plan and so long as I stayed on that plan, they would help me save my house. Obviously it's stressful to be in this situation and I was happy to hear them be willing to help. So I go on the payment plan. Then the date of foreclosure comes up and they call to say there will be no help unless I can pay off the retainer balance. Again, was told I could keep on the payment plan and be helped. I live on a small disability check, and in this economy the ability to save when I've just lost a parent and had to use all available extra funds to put them to rest means I am struggling. Like, you know, bankrupt people do. Like I told the consultant during our phone interview (they couldn't even fit me in a visit to an office). So they pull the rug and cancel me as a client. Fine, but will I get the $450 they charged me already on the payment plan back? The lady who cancelled me said I would. Then they call and hem and haw about policy and retainer agreement. These people are EVIL. Taking advantage of the most vulnerable folks who just want to not lose a HOUSE THAT I OWN with no mortgage. Just a little bit behind on taxes. Not 10 years behind, a year and a half behind. Because I was caring for my sick dying mother and dad didn't leave enough for her to die peacefully with. So I stepped up and was the dutiful son. And yeah,money got tight and I got behind, now I need a lifeline. And instead of a lifeline I got thrown an anchor. And on that anchor was stamped "ALLMAND LAW".
