Posted by Robert | September 06, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Slow Down!

I got a speeding ticket while traveling through Georgia. I reside in MN and could not appear in court so I contacted Horace to go to court to represent me. He was able to keep the ticket from my permanent record and was able to work through some payment issues to the court.

What a great guy..

After meeting HK to discuss an issue I had with a local business I decided that he was the kind of attorney I wanted to navigate the legal system on my behalf. He was honest and forthright with the information he gave and expectations of the case. He took the time to listen to my frustration and ...guided me in the right direction based on his experience with the legal system. I would recommend Mr. Sawyer to anyone looking for a honest straight forward guy!

Terrible Experience

I hired him based upon a recommendation. I had a simple civil issue that needed to be resolved. At some point, this Attorney seems to have forgotten who he was working for an instead attacked me while letting the violator in this case continue to violate me. Turns out, I didn't even need to use this... attorney at all. I filed a credit card chargeback on my own in just a few minutes.

FOR THE PEOPLE

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know of my experience with Mr. Sawyer. Far too often, people are eager to write letters or make a phone call to complain, but I wanted to take the time to write to let you know that I am very pleased with the performance, support, professionalism and determin...ation of Mr. Sawyer. Throughout my case, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during times that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and details/developments of my case. Upon settlement of my case, I felt that it was a fair settlement amount and that Mr. Sawyer did everything in his power to ensure this process had truly been as smooth and comfortable as possible. Every step along the way, I was kept informed of the progress, promises were maintained...I could not have asked for more! I thank and commend Mr. Sawyer for truly being For the People!!

Retraction

A few days ago I posted a negative review for this lawyer out of frustration. Since I cannot figure out how to erase the comment I would like to post a new comment regarding this lawyer. Mr. Sawyer has contacted me regarding my case with pertinent information that was case sensitive. He explained why... the delay to my satisfaction and I would like to apologize for jumping the gun in this situation. If you need an honest lawyer, Mr. Sawyer is upfront and honest and the right person to use if you are willing to be patient and wait until he can perform his job in the time frame needed. He will be honest with you if you let. Please consider using this lawyer for any of your legal needs.
