Chip Muller

Chip's quick response rate is what sold me on him -- the situation was extremely stressful and unfolding rapidly. I was caught completely off guard as this employer issued a detailed written probation and threat of termination with absolutely no verbal or written warnings - in fact, the exact opposit...e had taken place -- that's why I pursued a lawyer in the first place. His assistance gave me peace of mind.

My family retained Chip with a difficult procedural posture even though our case had merits. I am commenting on what was in Chip Muller's control to be fair and write this review with integrity, Chip Muller demanded a $10,000 retainer and then asked for two more or he would withdraw in less than 2 w...eeks knowing we were in a difficult spot. He misled us and fleeced $21,000 from us because he changed his strategy on us to lead it to an appeal which is very expensive before asking for a well deserved ability to respond and rehearing for an elderly sick woman. Instead, he negotiated against his client goals for his goals to take advantage of an elderly woman financially and leave us in a mess. He is the quintessential empty suit in litigation and underwhelming. He knows some law but can't apply it to the circumstances. He did not review the case history and we had to remind him 10 times to review relevant emails. We could not have intelligent conversations and refer to the Court docket because he relied on his secretary to pull documents up even though he is young enough that he should know how to do this. We had to do most of the work other than him providing some case law and not applying it to the case. We are not just disgruntled litigants. I think he really lacks litigation and recall skills and attention to detail which is critical for a successful complex litigator. Talked a good game but no substance. Will nickel and dime you with limited value provided. He made an already stressful situation even more stressful and is highly defensive. I would never use him for litigation as he gives up after the first bogus argument from the other side and apologizes for his clients when the other side are the guilty parties for which there is hard evidence. Chip is more interested in his financial gain and keeping good graces with the judges at the expense of the client. This is not someone you want if opposing counsel are difficult because he is not pursuasive in a contested matter. I would never recommend him to my family or friends.
