Thomas F. Farley

I hired Tom Farley to represent me in a case against a Tafton, Pa boat dealer. I purchased a new boat that needed thousands of dollars in repairs. I paid for a marine survey and sent it to Tom. He found someone to write a repair estimate for $700, so I gave him another $700. He then comes back an...d said the guy needs to see the boat in person and wanted $300 an hour plus mileage to drive from New Jersey to Pennsylvania. So basically this guy wanted almost $7,000 to write a repair estimate. I said no to that and requested that my $700 be refunded. Never happened. I filed a dispute with my credit card company to get the $700 back. All Tom had to do was write the boat dealer a letter stating that he's not allowed to sell a new boat that needs thousands of dollars in repairs. This case clearly represented fraudulent trade practice and breach of contract. I also filed a dispute with my credit card company for his $2,500 retainer fee and got that back. Because of Tom's lack of interest and motivation, I lost over $11,000 on this boat purchase. Do not use Tom Farley for any type of legal matter. He should retire and get on with his life's work because it isn't the law.
