This REVIEW will make a difference!!!

Mr. Baig, was everything I could have hoped for in an attorney that I hired from Florida, without knowing him personally or otherwise. My attorney in Florida recommended him only after she had spoken with him by phone and not knowing him otherwise, as well. He was professional, knowledgeable about th...e law, personal, caring, understood the case and was prepared when it mattered. When I met him for the first time, for depositions the things that stood out to me were, his confidence about the case, his demeanor, his warmth, I felt like I had been his best friend for years. He had a desire to know me personally and know the person I am. I got to know him and his family, through pictures and stories we told, he made me feel welcomed and calm. I felt like a child with his father, safe and secure knowing that he was there and things were going to be fine, just have faith, even though I am quite his senior. He had planned the people to be deposed and the mediation, the whole process went exactly how he had planned and expected and his whole character portrayed that plan. Without a doubt Mr. Baig exceeded my expectations at every level. I am blessed, not only to have an attorney in Atlanta that I can always depend on but I have made a friend for life, who values family first. Thank you, Mr. Baig and The Baig Firm!!!

Outstanding attorney, outstanding advocate for my rights

Could not recommend Mr. Baig more. He assisted me with two separate legal matters and delivered very favorable results. He is extremely personable, extremely knowledgeable regarding the law, and was always available for any questions/concerns I had. I won't hesitate to enlist his services in the f...uture should I need legal representation.

Great resolution and advice for a bad renter

After a Google search to get a bad tenant out of one of our properties I came across Khurram’s practice. When we sat down he listened attentively, read through the lease and our files; and gave us a three-pronged approach with step-by-step actions for each avenue. He emailed me specific phrases to ...include in my written contact with the tenant; and we’re breathing much easier as the renter moved out within a week of notice without having to go through court dispossessory proceedings. He subsequently checked in with me twice more that week – even when he was on vacation. Those three approaches in his advice, I feel, are the reason that the bad situation didn’t extend for a longer time. I’ll definitely be referring him to other landlords in need.

Excellent representation for my federal case

Mr. Baig represented me in a federal case and I was very satisfied with the professional level and even the personal level. During my case which lasted more than five (5) months, I have always felt that natural trust and comfort with him every time we communicated. He certainly displayed a great con...fidence and knowledge constantly which I found highly appealing to any defendant. Thanks again Mr. Baig for everything you have helped me with.

Posted by Tito | December 19, 2014 | Debt Settlement

Battled it out with a Big Bank

So here's my story. I was involved in a new business venture with a partner and later decided to break away from the partnership. Our business was using BB&T bank as our merchant processor. I notified my merchant rep I was leaving the business and to take my name off the merchant account. The rep... never did, and I later find out my ex-business partner ran up almost $70k in chargebacks that the bank wanted refunded. Due to the bank not properly removing me from the account, they still had my name as a guarantor on the merchant account, so I was held accountable for this debt. They froze my personal account, and they froze another unrelated business account I had with BB&T as a form of collateral until they received their money. Mr. Baig managed to quickly negotiate with the BB&T legal department on the release of my business account from being held hostage, and he later was able to reach a settlement amount for them to release me from the situation that was about to quickly escalate. Mr. Baig efforts helped me preserve my credit and relationship with BB&T. He will more than likely soon represent me again in litigation against my ex-business partner. The only reason I'm rating the experience as Good instead of Excellent is because I didn't fully get the result I wanted, but I do think I got the best result I could get under the circumstances.
