I met with Mr Douglas on multiple occasions. He was extremely knowledgeable regarding my needs. Many drafts were made before my document was finalized. Both Mr. Douglas and his assistant were very professional and courteous.

Posted by Kevin | September 20, 2013 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Terrible service, unresponsive, untrustworthy.

Terrible services provided, the paralegals never respond to calls or even give accurate information. I only heard from Mr. Simmons one time and he asked me what I think he should do about my case. They tell you a price then once you are involved they add on additional fees. My original "200 dollar"... quote turned out to be almost 500 dollars. I would give 0 stars if that was possible. I do not recommend this law office to anyone unless you are looking to get screwed. I would of been better of representing my self in court and saved a lot of money for the same results with less hassle.
