Corinne M. Mullen

It is with profound disappointment and exasperation that I feel compelled to share my utterly deplorable experience with the Mullen Law Firm, particularly with their paralegal, Zeus Oviedo, whose unprofessionalism and neglect have turned what should have been a straightforward legal process into a ma...ddening ordeal. This firm’s egregious lack of responsiveness, coupled with their apparent indifference to client needs, has left me not only without resolution but also deeply disillusioned with their so-called “client-first” ethos. From the outset, the Mullen Law Firm’s communication—or rather, the complete absence thereof—was nothing short of catastrophic. I was initially reassured by their enthusiastic claim that I had a “great case,” a statement that now feels like a hollow lure designed to secure my retainer without any intention of delivering meaningful service. What followed was an infuriating cycle of silence, broken only by the occasional, perplexing email or text from Zeus Oviedo asserting that they were waiting for me to contact them, as if I had been the one neglecting communication. These messages were not only bewildering but also insulting, given that I had sent countless emails, texts, and voicemails—each meticulously documented and timestamped—pleading for updates, clarifications, or even a modicum of acknowledgment. My efforts were met with a deafening void, as if my case had been cast into some bureaucratic abyss where client inquiries go to languish unanswered. Zeus Oviedo, the paralegal assigned to my case, deserves particular mention for his astonishing dereliction of duty. His response time was not merely slow—it was nonexistent. Emails sent with urgent requests for updates were ignored for weeks, if not months, and phone calls were routinely funneled to an unresponsive voicemail system that seemed to serve as a black hole for client concerns. On the rare occasions when I managed to reach the office, I was met with the kind receptionist, whose professionalism and warmth stood in stark contrast to the firm’s overall dysfunction. Her palpable frustration, evident in her tone and demeanor, suggested that she was all too aware of the firm’s shortcomings in communication—a silent acknowledgment that she, too, was trapped in a system that fails its clients at every turn. The firm’s cavalier attitude toward my case was not only unprofessional but also profoundly disrespectful. To be told that my case held promise, only to be ignored at every subsequent juncture, felt like a betrayal of trust. Each unanswered email, each unreturned call, chipped away at my confidence in their ability—or willingness—to advocate on my behalf. The Mullen Law Firm’s conduct, and Zeus Oviedo’s role in perpetuating it, reflects a shocking disregard for the very clients they claim to serve. It is as if they believe that once a retainer is secured, the client’s needs become irrelevant, relegated to the back burner while they pursue other priorities. In the end, my experience with the Mullen Law Firm was not merely disappointing—it was a masterclass in how to alienate and frustrate a client. The receptionist’s professionalism was the sole redeeming feature of an otherwise deplorable experience, but her efforts were not enough to salvage the firm’s reputation. I caution anyone considering the Mullen Law Firm to think twice before entrusting them with your legal matters. Zeus Oviedo and his colleagues have demonstrated that they are not only incapable of timely communication but also utterly indifferent to the needs of those who rely on them. Save yourself the stress, the wasted time, and the false promises—look elsewhere for representation that values your time and your case.

From the very first call, I encountered a concerning issue. I was initially directed to the paralegal, who abruptly ended the call without any explanation, a clear sign of unprofessionalism. The next time they patch me through, I get in contact. They say my case is appropriate and begin taking det...ails. I get an email and text message line for an assistant, and they tell me the attorney will call me today or the next day. A few days later, there was no call, so I texted them. No response. I decided to wait the weekend before calling, and on Monday, the receptionist said he'd call me today or tomorrow. After a few more days, I called back, and they again say today or tomorrow. I called back the next day, and they say I'll make sure he calls you today. No call, I call back before then end of the day and they say "he'll call you in 10 minutes." Obviously, that call is not going to go through, right? I called back the next day and ended the ordeal, specifying that they should never contact me.

I am still waiting for Corinne to get back to me regarding a civil rights law suit I submitted my retainer for. Screwed everything up and I quickly found out she’s not a civil rights attorney, as she filed a tort and it is NOT NECESSARY for a civil rights lawsuit! Promised to send an itemized bill wi...th my refund SEVERAL TIMES with several excuses. I have been asking for over SIX MONTHS via text and email. Thanks for taking advantage of me in a time of desperation!

After making multiple phones and being bounce around from person to person, I finally got in touch with Mrs. Mullen who directed me into the right path to help me deal with an issue I’ve been facing for months. The information I received from her is now helping me deal with my matter with the correct... people!

My housemate and I hired this person to represent (we can't even make out who she was representing) us in a horrible homophobic saga in Jersey City. First let me start by saying, she has no office that we ver went to. She conducts her "business" in a public room to a condo. Making her, IMO, an ally... lawyer. She doesn't even have a storefront! She doesn't return calls and she takes other client calls while we were on her clock. She would discuss personal issues with us, like her daughter having self-esteem issues. Now, I am quite compassionate, but what does her personal life have to do with my case?! She takes notes on pieces of paper and consequently forgets what our previous meeting @300 an hour were all about. She said she was going to counter a suit which I was being issued and she did not! She sent subpoenas out to people whom I identifies and made her aware of, were hostile witnesses. But, she never subpoenaed the ones whom I expressly told her (and I have text and email evidence of what I am saying) were going to be useful. I can go on about her unprofessionalism, but you can get the point. Lstly, she is representing people from LGBTQ community and she took offense when I pointed out to her that she had the acronyms wrong, by saying..."well, I don't know" !!! Instead of I'm sorry can you please educate me so that I get it right? And there was the retainer which I want back in full, because she made me loose my lawful time to file for a counter. She told me that I would get 1600$ back and that the funds would be available at the the end of October, due to her accounting. On October 31, I texted to find out when the moneys would be available and her response was..., "I'm away and you cannot give me such short notice" I made my request on October 3 and she told me at the end of October. It took her until November 12 to have the check cut for me and it was for 1500$!! She had the mitigated gull to tell me that she was returning this as a favor. In conclusion, run from this "lawyer" and don't look back, or you may as well toss your money out the window. Horrible, self indulged and unprofessional.
