If I could give zero stars I would. We found Mr.Quinn and decided to go with him based off of the reviews we have read, however I now see that all the good reviews are because the bad ones are deleted. Well…I will keep posting if this is deleted because people should be aware. My family went through ...a very difficult time last year and we trusted this Law firm to help us. Things started off great, but once finances came into play things changed. We made our initial deposit and we kept getting the run around and NO updates on our case. When the next payment came due THEN we received emails but no update on our case. Eventually, Mr.Quinn told us that he was taking a risk representing us and if we went somewhere else they probably wouldn’t even take the case. (Even though we had a second party as a witness and who even book him as well). Quinn did not defend my husband at all, he received a response from his demand letter and basically gave us the “oh well, they said….” And didn’t have a plan to defend us at all. And he kept mentioning how many other cases he had to deal with. To limit the length of this review he was quick to take our money but as soon as we wanted something to show for it……nothing. We explored other options and that is moving very swiftly and positive for us which shows us Quinn didn’t give his all. Do not book them unless you have money to just throw away and appreciate a business who does not update you and gives you the “we can take your business or we can’t it doesn’t matter” treatment.

We do not delete reviews. And I am pleased to hear that you found the representation you were looking for. Our firm is not a fit for everyone. You mentioned in the review that we sent a demand letter for your husband and that it took time to get an update. We cannot control how quickly or slowly the other side responds, so this can be a challenge. As for compensation, demand letters are a limited engagement - a flat fee for a specific service. Based on your description, it may have been that services were needed beyond the demand letter that could have required additional compensation. Ultimately, if you found an attorney that is a good fit for your family we are pleased to hear that and wish you the best.
