Trustworthy

I contacted Doug for some things I needed to get done. I wasn't sure who to contact. Turns out, He's responsive, kind, and an expert at his profession. Gets things done! I am very happy that I chose Doug. I have dealt with many Attorneys in my career in the past 40 years. Some good, some not so good.... He's my go to from now on.

Marilyn Monroe -- A Cranky Hoarder

Marilyn Monroe has a negative view of anyone who tries to help. Att. Sears tried to help, didn't give Ms. Monroe the answers she wanted to hear, so Ms. Monroe sought revenge by making the above post. Att. Sears occasionally represents folks like Ms. Monroe pro bono, or for a low fee. He does not e...xpect gratitude for his work. Socially conscious lawyers grow used to clients like Ms. Monroe, and try not to let those with difficult personalities deter their willingness to help others who are down and out.

Marilyn Monroe

To Whom It May Concern, I’ve known this lawyer for a few months, he is not a very nice person. Please read the reviews about him. The reason why I say this is because if you respond to him regarding specific legal issues that are clearly written in black and white he takes offense.
