Posted by Matthew | December 05, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Stay far far away from this atty!

When you meet with him, he's very pleasant. Once he's hired he's non responsive, fails for follow up on case issues. He mistook my final required Chapter 13 online course for my Chapter 7 completed course. As a result the court closed my case and I have to reopen in order to close. Another $400 out... of my pocket. Haven't heard from him since the first week of October 2021. Can't get a response. Filed a complaint. Awful atty.

Absolutely Unprofessional

Will has completely failed me. My home is now is foreclosure because he failed to appear at a hearing! He does not ever answer or return calls, emails or any other communication. He does not do his job. He has a prior formal disciplinary action and I have filed a complaint against his myself with the... office of lawyer regulation.

Is this guy for real

No one ever answers his phone. His cell voice mail is continually full. His office message says he is constantly closed and no one called me back.

Terrible

Attorney William Green was the worst attorney I've ever dealt with. Never followed through with request, never returned calls. Was not prompt, was not organized! Vaguely answered questions. Lied about the other party not getting info in when he was the one who wasn't exchanging information! The last ...hearing with william, he hardly said a word, or defend me and my case! Nothing but a headache working with him and his staff! Terrible, terrible, terrible! Do not be fooled, do not hire him!

Bankruptcy

Attorney Green and Dana took the time to interview me with the requirements for Bankruptcy. I know that they take the time to answer any questions I may have when I don't understand. They are genuine people and don't Rush like other firms. This is Highly recommended for this Firm! Thanks again I am s...o glad u didn't judge me.
