His secretary is chasing his buisiness away!!!

Max Feldman might be a good attorney but I will not be finishing my case with him because of the following reasons. I gave him a partial deposit to retain him for representing me for my mothers estate. Since I had a consultation I have repeatedly called to speak with him or have him call me so I coul...d give him some money so we can move forward in the case. Here is where Max's problems start. His secretary tells me he is never there and when asking for him to call back does nothing he never calls back. I am going to quote her response to me requesting to pay him. "You just need to come here and drop some money off." in the most rude tone I have ever heard in my life!!! I could not believe that this came from an attorneys employee!!!! During that last call I tried repeatedly to ask if I could speak with him about how this payment was going to be handled, since my family members where backing me for this case in the estate also helping to pay for it and because they live out of state I was wanting to introduce him on a three way call. Now after these attempts plus all the previous times she had given me the run around telling me he is not there you would think he doesn't even work there! Such a waste of my time and too many wasted days with no call back. I really needed a motion filed while was waiting for a call back. This is so very unprofessional and I wonder who she thinks she is? Or who I am for that manner? Well, I can tell her we the public provide her with a pay check! This is totally unacceptable and her rudeness was it for me. I told her" I am not going to finish this case with him." Her reply was "Fine!!" So Be It!!! I really think it will be hard to get my money back and I certainly can not call her back EVER! Although, I am right now looking to hire another attorney and maybe he can get the rest back for me and a peer might let him know how she is hurting his business.

I am very upset to receive this poor review. However, I wish to explain. I have met with the prospective client on two separate occasions to discuss an estate matter. On each occasion, I provided the prospective client with valuable information. Prior to ending each appointment, I communicated to the prospective client that in order to move forward with the case, the prospective client must retain me for my services. The prospective client did not retain me for my services on either occasion. After both of the prospective client's free consultations, the prospective client repeatedly called my office seeking legal advice. Prior to ending each phone call, my secretary, Corrie, communicated to the prospective client that I could no longer speak to the prospective client unless the prospective client retained me for my services. Corrie further informed the prospective client that my retainer agreement must be signed and returned, along with payment, before I could begin providing legal services. After repeatedly calling my office and requesting to speak with me, Corrie informed the prospective client that I must be retained for my services and will not speak to the prospective client prior to being retained. Corrie is an invaluable asset to my practice. I have never received a complaint or poor review of Corrie. In fact, my clients continuously compliment Corrie for her superb communication skills and compassionate demeanor. I have ran a professional law practice in Coraopolis, PA since 1992. I have handled thousands of cases during this period of time. In order to effectively run a law practice, I must focus my time on retained clients and those truly interested in retaining my services.
