Simon B. Mann

There were so many issues and stressful moments having Simon as a lawyer and with the staff lawyer Christine who was assigned to my case. Christine was very rude and unprofessional; her communication skills were awful. Simon missed a due date that I wasn't aware of and called me 3 days AFTER the... due date looking for the information. I sent the document within 2 days of notification from Simon, which now made the document 5 days late, by the time the document was sent to opposing counsel, it was 10 days past the original due date. Another similar situation occurred within 2 months of this missed due date. Simon sent a portion of an email from the opposing counsel to me regarding a request to send documents as required by an Order. I didn't have any knowledge of the Order at the time of the email sent by Simon. Simon sent the email request to me 1 week after the Order date. Some of the requested documents were previously sent to Simon. I worked on assembling the documents later that night into the early hours of the next morning just to get the documents to him ASAP. This created another stressful situation for me. Simon sent an email to me with regards to the deposition containing only the deposition notice; the email from Simon didn't contain any verbiage or any strategy on how he would handle the deposition just the deposition notification attachment. The email didn't contain any information as to whether or not Simon would be present at the deposition. I had to ask Simon what was the plan for handling the deposition. I responded to the email that I wasn't happy about the deposition and told him why I wasn't happy, which we discussed several times before. When coronavirus became prevalent in March 2020, I sent an email to Simon asking him about the plan to continue with my case with coronavirus affecting business operations. I asked Simon to reach out to the group handling the case to determine the new timeline. Simon responded via email to my email and indicated he wanted to wait until the ban was lifted to contact the group handling my case find out the plan. All work on my case prior to coronavirus was being done completely through emails, so there wasn't any reason to stop continuing to work on my case as the group handling the case clearly posted on their website that cases would still proceed and be processed via email. I sent Simon an email showing him the information on the company website stating they were still operational and there was not reason for not continuing to work on my case during the coronavirus shutdown. With all the mishaps that happened with my case, I believed my case was on track to be a loss especially since due dates were being missed without my knowledge. After using coronavirus as a reason not to continue work on my case, I couldn't continue with the stress and sought a new lawyer. The new lawyer fought hard for my case. He communicated with me on the progress of my case truly cared about my case. I had a successful outcome with my new lawyer and was thankful to have him as my lawyer. My experience was the opposite of my experience with Simon, it was stress free and pleasurable.

Attorney Simon Mann did a beautiful job for me and my wife helping us with a business dispute. He successfully achieved our goals and quickly processed and provided our settlement proceeds to us! We are using him for more of our legal matters and expect we will use him for a long time. I would recomm...end Attorney Mann to my friends and family. because he was responsive, respectful, and reliable.
