Stay away from this firm.

I retained this law firm over a year ago and paid them $5,500 to represent me. Since accepting my payment, they have failed to perform the services they were hired to provide and have made no meaningful progress on my matter. Over the past year I have made more than 20 phone calls to their office ...requesting updates. Each time I was promised a return call, yet no one ever followed through. I have also sent multiple emails requesting information about my case and formally demanding either action or a refund. These communications have largely gone unanswered. Collecting a substantial retainer and then failing to perform services, failing to communicate with a client, and ignoring repeated requests for updates is completely unacceptable and raises serious concerns about professional responsibility. Because of the firm’s failure to provide services or return my funds, I will be filing formal complaints with the North Carolina State Bar and the North Carolina Attorney General’s Office. I will also be pursuing all available options to recover the $5,500 that was paid for services that were never performed. Anyone considering hiring this firm should proceed with extreme caution and carefully review the negative feedback from other clients, as many appear to report similar issues with communication and lack of progress.

Dishonest

Shawntae Crews, will do the absolute bare minimum and have little to no contact with you about anything. I have gave here thousands of dollars for her to get my truck back from an old friend that stole it. I have the keys, original title proof of payment everything and the woman that stole it didn...’t even show up at court yet. I still do not have my truck back. (8 months) I keep calling asking for documentation of my court case and next steps to get my truck back. She wrote me a letter stating she’s going to discontinue her services on my case and still, Has provided me with no documentation of anything. Now I have to take off work to deal with this. Do not waste your time find a different lawyer for whatever you’re doing.

Difficult to reach, passive, all around no

It was nearly impossible to get her to respond regarding my case. Calls ignored, email ignored...I would not recommend her if you care about your case or having a favorable outcome.

Poor Service (Run)

Paid $600 to represent daughter for landlord tenant issue on Tuesday, March 30, 2021 and the following Tuesday, April 6,2021 the demand letter has not been sent to apartment complex from Shawntae Crews. Charged $150 for consultation, and since of urgency was explained during the consultation. Alexisi...s keep sending emails and no response. Reported her to NC Bar Association and Attorney Generals office. You don't take peoples money and take your time, when someone tells you they are allergic to mold and 6 months pregnant!!!Did she really charge $600 to write a demand letter????? Never sent detailed email stating what the $600.00 covered. Run.....read the reviews, stars don't lie.
