Conflicted

My attorney was very helpful till he got his 40% of my lawsuit claim. Any questions regarding my other half of the settlement he didn't respond to or wasn't helpful any longer. Not sure if I would ever recommend him or use him again.

Dear Client - thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I am sorry I was not able to effectively communicate the status of your claim with you. I am still your attorney, and will be fighting with you, and for you until the end. Anytime you call my office, they will put you through to me - not a staffer, and if I am unavailable, I will call you back within 24 hours. Unfortunately, you and I are frustrated with the same issue, which is the slow payment on the litigation you are involved in. I have no control over that as you know - it is all being handled by a 3rd party claims center by order of the Court. They would have provided you an 800 number to call and check the status, but if you call me, I will provide that number and share anything I know about your claim. Also, please understand that while you are waiting to get paid - we are too. We are the last of everyone to receive payment, and that is fine with us, and that is how it should be. I hope you call me and allow me to improve in the way I communicate with you and explain the process. At the end of the day, I know how much this particular litigation has victimized you and others, and I never want to be an additional source of frustration - my job is to help you and make things easier, and I hope I get that opportunity moving forward. Thank you for helping to make me a better attorney.

Anne L.

Fareesh represented me in a clear cut negligence case. In spite of the fact that I suffered damages and the defendants did not have liability insurance, I was expecting to see justice served but was quite surprised to find out that businesses can get away with murder and I had few options. My inju...ries were near fatal. When Fareesh took on my case, I think he expected a different outcome. He was equally surprised that the defendants were not insured, no assets, and yet he was persistent in his promise to, at the very least, ensure my medical expenses were covered. I know that he did his best to get whatever financial compensation he could from the defendants. He reduced his share of the settlement. It was quite short of what I had expected but, in his defense, Fareesh remained positive. He worked hard. He did his best. He maintained a professional demeanor, knowing that he was not going to make much money, and always kept me informed of any developments. I know he felt bad for me. It was quite obvious that I deserved a better deal. But in spite of all of the above mentioned issues, he did get me some financial relief. I think that Fareesh is a very good lawyer. He is honest, sympathetic and doesn't mince words. Most of all, he is a hard worker. Anne

Honest and extremely effective

I was issued a citation in an auto accident while visiting in Atlanta. I contacted Fareesh after shopping around for lawyers and posting my inquiry on Avvo. Facing points on my license, court fees and penalties, a return trip to Atlanta and increased premiums, I decided I wanted to fight the citati...on. Fareesh told me he would be able to handle my case in Atlanta without me having to drive back down, secure a full dismissal and do it all for a very reasonable price. He was 100% correct. Charges were dismissed, no court fees or fines, and no return trip to Atlanta. Fareesh was very easy to get in touch with whenever I had any questions and he was an extremely effective attorney. I could not be happier with results of my case! Would recommend for any legal issue - the guy knows his stuff.
