Derek M. Wright

Attorney Derek Wright!! This man is a crook and a liar! He abandoned my son's case & he's only been hired for 3 months and refuses to answer any calls or texts to explain why he thinks he's going to take our money & abandon my son's case! He never showed up for court on time or visited my son, he mad...e promise after promise & assured us he would fight for my son. He used a juvenile excuse saying me the mom called & texted too much about the case.. how else was the family supposed to get updates on the case because he never called or did the job he was paid for!! I wish I had seen the negative reviews on "FindLaw" of other clients complaining about how incompetent he is before we hired this clown or even the complaint with the board that shows his history of being a liar!! Do not hire this wannabe Johnny Cochran because he doesn't have the experience to do the job....if you do hire him you'll regret it, save yourself the trouble! He's a hypocrite

I have dealed with Derek several times and have recommended him to a few people I know. He had always been solid with me and responsive. In February 2022 I called and asked him about filing a divorce for me. He told me he could do it and to send him the details he needed with $700 to start the filing.... I cashapped him the money and things went radio silent. I reached out a couple time, sometimes he responds, most of the time he doesn’t. It’s been two months and I can’t find anything with the courts regarding my divorce. I reached out to the State of Georgia Bar and they advised me to send either an email or a certified letter to Derek(Contact the Client Assistance Program at 404-527-8759.). After that file a grievance with them (https://www.gabar.org/forthepublic/fileacomplaint.cfm). I’m one step away from filing the complaint, but all I want is my money back or proof that the divorce has been filed.

Mr. Right Is an exemplary example Of what an attorney embodies and what an attorney should stand for. Mr. Wright is Just good old-fashioned gets the job done what you ask of him he will make it a reality. Everybody's case is different but If you walk into that courtroom with Mr. Wright your in grea...t hands. He is respected in every courtroom from Fulton to Dekalb County and is taken very serious by the D.A. Personally he has successfully defeated 3 separate felony indictment that were non related that happened at 3 different times in my life. He has won a motion to suppress hearing for me,Very impressive. You rarely see that live in action when it counts most He has preserved my freedom and innocence On several occasions. And for this I am eternally grateful. Honestly Mr. Wright is MR. RIGHT. If you want someone who is articulate,sharp, cunning, and will actually win, he's your guy. If you want someone to exceed expectations and that always has the right game plan. -N.A.

Incompetent, inefficient, inept, incapable are just some of the words that come to mind. He arrived late to my court hearing 3 out of 4 times and this made it impossible to build a good rapport with the judge. He was unable to fully have the case prepared and made a fool out of himself in court. I ne...ver had a chance.
