William M Monroe

My experience with this attorney was the worst of any I have had. I am not a disgruntled previous employee nor have I had personal encounters with this man. I was faced with divorce and he took advantage. Mr. Monroe had no problem taking my money, but he had a problem keeping staff and working on my ...case. It took a YEAR to get my divorce filed and I had already done all the work. In the meantime, my ex husband was having major financial issues that were beginning to come back on me simply because we were married, although I had handed a prepared order and parenting plan to Mr. Monroe months prior for him to file. I had to constantly call his office and chase him down. Emails and phone calls were not returned and when I did finally get him on the phone he would blow me off with petty excuses of why he hasn't returned any of my calls for MONTHS at a time. I finally contacted the Board of Professional Liability in Nashville, TN to get this man to do his job he had been paid for and what does he do? Blame me. He responds that he had contacted me and that I was the one not returning his calls. Smart, Mr. Monroe. Very "Attorney-Like" of you. I would NEVER recommend this attorney to anyone. Not only that, I am not sure how he is allowed to continue practicing law. To top things off, I had to go hire another attorney once the divorce was finalized because HE FILED THE WRONG PAPERWORK! How does that happen you ask? Well, I only signed the back page. All the rest were easily changed/confused by he or his staff. I feel sorry for his staff, because he blames everything on them. I've even talked to a previous employee of his who is questioning how is still in practice as well. But, my favorite part has got to be when he spoke ill of ME, his CLIENT, to my EX HUSBAND in COURT. He made a comment about not wanting to deal with me. You are right. After all that you have done, I wouldn't want to deal with me either. I will NEVER, EVER forget what you put me through during that year. I wish I could. I'm trying. I am a professional. I have friends and business dealings with attorneys. They are not all bad, regardless of all the jokes that go around. But this particular attorney makes them look bad. If you read this and hire this lawyer, shame on you.
