I just thought that I should say something about my case. I haven't signed for my check and I've been holding this letter for about a week because every time I look at it I get upset.
Even though your people weren't mean nor disrespectful that's about the only thing I can say good about them.... I felt like my case wasn't taken serious. I felt like they just went through my case because it wasn't a big one. I felt like I had to sign this settlement because it didn't seem like they weren't even Interested in given me the right settlement.
I wasn't trying to get rich all I wanted was my medical bills paid and my lost time wages for all the time I had to take to go to the dr. and just to get my body back right. I am a area leader at a aluminum recycling plant and my job is very physical but I guess my lawyer didn't care or think I was worth the headache to even ask for my lost time wages and I emailed him and asked about it the first time he sent State Farm an offer.
When I came to the office to talk face to face with another lawyer and to let him know that I wasn't satisfied with the offer he had the nerve to lie in my face saying I can only $25,000 in the state of Georgia. #1 I wasn't even asking for that and #2 I know that's a lie. And yes that's exactly what he said and I had someone there who heard him say that.
I came to your firm being this was my first accident and thinking that your firm was gonna be professional about my case, I would have respected them more if you just would have turned me away instead of just handling my case like it didn't matter to them. Just because I'm a african american woman doesn't mean that I'm stupid or that $1,300 was gonna satisfy me, I have a real job not some fast food job. I was making that a week before I got hurt.I could have just went to someone in Athens instead of going all the way to Duluth.
I know that the people that handle my case would have handled it much different if it was their mother or wife or daughter and I deserve that same treatment.
I could never advise anyone to come to your firm they way they handle my case and I know I'm not the first person to feel this way because as I ask people about your firm after the fact that I had your people handling my case they said they had the same problem that i was having.
All i can say is that you live and learn and i will do my research before ever hiring a lawyer off of the commercial that he claims that he will fight for me.
