Very defensive and bad in communication

At first i was very comfortable with him, he even considered give me a discount, but when i received his paperwork to hire him i noticed the amounts were different then discussed ( make sure you get a email with the price agreed, that would be your proof), I communicated with him about the amount and... he got very defensive and just wanted to walk away, i had many questions but he seemed to have issues in responding, also when i questioned a old review about him not being responsive he again was very defensive and said i should find someone else. I don’t recommend him for my own experiences but im sure different ppl have different feelings about him.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. I am sorry that the almost hour long free phone consultation of your case didn't meet with your satisfaction. I also appologize that my replies to your numerous emails after normal business hours and on the weekend were not timely enough for you. Mind you all of this was before you retained my firm. Anyway, good luck with your case and have a great day.

Professional Lawyer

This lawyer handled my bankruptcy very well. He was professional, knowledgeable, and affordable. He filed my case very quickly and offered me an affordable payment plan.

Great Experience

I had the best experience getting my legal issues resolved. They are extremely knowledgeable, experienced, and go above and beyond to fight for you. They provided me with the best service! At the time, I was going through a tough divorce. They worked with me every step of the way and even provided m...e with a payment plan option that worked well with my budget. I was extremely satisfied with my outcome. I would highly recommend this law firm to everyone I know.

RUN! RUN! RUN!

I hired Ronald Bruce from another state to help me with my families probate case after my father's death in 2014. While he sat and did nothing for the first 4 months, another family member sold the house and all of the belongings while I waited to hear something from RB. I received my retainer fe...e refund from RB after I hired a different attorney and also promised to file a complaint with the Attorney Grievance Commission. He cost me a lot of personal property, time and stress while undergoing breast cancer treatments. The only good thing that I can say is that he was smart enough to send my money back. RUN!
