Marshall F. Dotson III

Doesn't answer phone nor return calls, cell or office. He wasted my assets and time. I'd guess at least 2 of the positive reviews are from the same former or current employee, who is a little unhinged herself. I can tell by the her phrases and disperaging remarks of other reviewers and overzealous de...fense of him. The guy just irritates judges by continuing to push cases back and doesn't do any real pro-active work, only reactive belatedly. Makes promises that he doesn't keep. Stay away!

Ok so he did not call me back everytime, I did not want to get charged for a phone call, text, etc. if nothing was going on I am waaayyyyy toooo old for that I have family to hold my hands. When reading the negative posts, makes you wonder how much he really pissed of the other party in the action ...just sayn......People need to grow up...the State is over budget, not enough judge's etc......but ohhhhh blame the attorney....If you can't afford the attorney you love, love the one you can afford....and he was not cheap but worth every dime....

I must admit Mr. Dotson is a very busy man, but he is the best attorney that I have ever done business with. My last divorce, not being my first rodeo, I had a fairly good idea of the fees to expect and knew better than to run up my own fees with a bunch of unnecessary calls and emails. I took all ...of my information in when I first met with Mr. Dotson, we discussed my case and he or someone from his office called me when they needed further information from me. My bill at the end was nearly $8000.00 which I thought very reasonable compared to my first attorney on this matter. I can't even bad mouth him as I picked an attorney that did not specialize in domestic matters. In the door I paid $2500, when I in effect "fired" him (the first attorney in this particular matter) there had been NO court documents filed so the only thing I received back were letters between attorneys and a copy of the fee agreement that I signed acknowledging that no initial moneys paid would be refunded. Mr. Dotson then took my case worked with me on payment and gave my ex a good old fashioned spanking plus sued him for the remainder of the attorney fees owed. I wonder if some people understand the process? I also wonder if they consider that when you are paying someone to look after your best interest perhaps you need to step back and let them handle it. NO, the process was not quick and NO he never called unless he needed something from me, but he did an excellent job for me. The bad reviews...I think are bogus, I went from my first attorney offering to settle at $2500.00 and 2 years at $200 per month and ended up with $90,000.00. I think that was a damn good job. Thank you Mr. Dotson

He was a wonderful attorney, kind, caring, and compassionate about my case. He provided a wonderful result, at times it was hard to get in touch with him but when my case got to Court, he rocked!!!! He worked with me with payments and got me a favorable settlement monetarily as well as my custody o...f my children in place. In looking for an attorney, there is no one else I would ever use!!!
