SCOTT WAS RETAINED AND AN AGREEMENT WAS MADE THAT A SUM WOULD BE PROVIDED AND USED TO WORK ON MY CASE. HOWEVER, SHOULD MY CASE REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FUNDS, A CONVERSATION WOULD TAKE PLACE PRIOR SO NOT TO EXCEED X AMOUNT. MY CASE WAS SETTLED, AND I WAS ADVISED I WOULD RECEIVE A REFUND OF UNUSED FUNDS. TH...
As the owner of the firm, I provide workable financial situations to people with limited funds in the beginning of every case, so long as a potential client promises to satisfy the balance of the engagement fee no later than 3 months after we start working on their case. It appears this client never asked to speak with me to resolve their financial matters, but instead opted to leave bad review which indicates this client had a lack of resources and/or money to finish this case... not one word of this review addressed the very high quality of legal services we have provided to them. I work financially with everyone’s situation, but some people hope to get farther into the process by applying unreasonable timeframes and unreasonable cost expectations. Further, I presume that this person paid a small percentage of what was actually due and from the beginning. Since they never reached out to me directly and instead opted for anonymity, we will never really be able to fix this problem.
"Mr. Schlegal is a excellent family law attorney. He is able to achieve the difficult balance of being a worthy adversary with striving for a fair resolution of the family law case. He litigates well when necessary, but always strives to achieve a fair settlement when possible to minimize legal costs and the impact of litigation on a family."
"I have referred both friends and close contacts in the community to Scott for his legal advice and counsel, under the challenging circumstances of family dispute. I believe his excellent communication and legal skills give Scott an added advantage in the courtroom and alternative dispute settings. I strongly recommend Scott Schlegel."
"I have worked alongside Scott for over 9 years and have found him to be a very caring and thorough attorney. Scott has able to get results in cases where many other attorneys have failed. I strongly endorse him."
