Posted by anonymous | October 05, 2015 | Hired Attorney

I wouldn't hire/recommend him!

I hired him in 2007 for a personal injury claim for my son and I. He mishandled my case by not filing the claim in time and cut me a check. (This was fine with me) In the notice he said that he would continue to handle my son's case whim was a minor at the time. I reached out to him off and on for 2-...3 years with no response from him or anyone in his office. I finally reached his wife on Wednesday 9/30/15. Spoke with him on 10/2/15 and he stated that he didn't have anything on file regarding my case or my son's case. (Which, Im sure that it would take some time to find considering yrs had passed). Well, on Friday 10/2/15 he asked me to gather some info since he didn't have any files on the case and get back with him by Monday 10/5/15. He had written me a check back in 2008 for the mishandling of my case and asked me to find the check number and the letter that he had written to go with it. I found the info that he was inquiring about and called him with that information on today 10/5/15 and he tell me that he didn't think that my son had a case then and don't think that he has a case now. Im lost, why did he take the case and why did he write that he would continue to handle my son's case if he think that be had a case? And today, 2 days after my son's 19th birthday, he tells me to seek advice from another lawyer! Im sorry sir! What's the law on statue of limitations? Keep in mind that I've been reaching out to he and his firm. He doesn't have any file or info about the case and neither do I.. Sir, I gave them to you! I could go and regather this info again.. Just isn't worth it! Long story short- I wouldn't recommend him

ex client

I went and hired Bill Monroe a year ago for a parenting plan and paid him a lot of money and all he did was make a mediation date to see if we could wor something out and nothing went good at all. So there was supposed to be a court date to let the judge decide on visitation and its been over a year ...and still nothing. He won't return my call or emails or anything. He is the worst lawyer I have ever seen. You don't take thousands of dollars from innocent people and do nothing for them!

mediation guidance

Mr. Monroe is a patient and perceptive listener. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and can explain the law in an easy-to-understand manner. I felt very secure with him leading the charge to settle my dispute. He put me at ease throughout the process of acheiving a resolution to the legal issues.

my counselor

I was a client of this attorney. What I liked about the attorney's services was that he was expert, conscientious, and effective.

Worst excuse for a lawyer ever!!

If you have thousands of dollars you want to waste on getting nothing done then he is your man! He took my money, never got back to me on anything, I found out my kids were being molested and he did nothing to fight for me or them! The only time he ever called or emailed me was asking for more money!... When I fired him (7weeks before my next court date) he waited until the day before my court hearing to withdraw from my case so that I could not have another attorney present. He never kept me informed on anything and at one court date he even told the judge that I was unprepared because I constantly called and emailed him and he never let me know what to bring. Really I could go on and on but please do yourself a favor and hire someone else.
