Horrible Experience

I met with Mr. London and experienced extremely lack of professionalism and respect. Mr. London did not let me give a synopsis of my case and had no feeling/empathy for what very little I did say. Instead he belittled me from the very start, and talked over me profusely. Being a very mild mannered... person I have never experienced such adverse behavior. Absolutely nothing positive was communicated from him. I was highly taken aback by the whole experience. I left in a dismay and wondered how many others experienced such condescending behavior. His delivery leaves something to be desired. If he is not interested in taking a case there are other more tactful ways of conveying that information. Consult with other Attorneys before settling with him. When I asked him what he charges for certain services it was utterly ridiculous. Be careful with paying the upfront $300.00 consult fee.

Worse attorney in Chicago

Mr. London charged $350 to speak for a thirty min consultation only to tell you he can’t handle your case. He very shady. I don’t understand how he has a license to practice law. I would never ever seek consult from him again.

Trust

After seeing this attorney, I still had to seek out another attorney for further advise which had proven to be in my best interest, whereas I was inform not to pursue the matter. I'm glad I didn't listen. Please make sure you seek out attorneys especially those who do not charge consultation fees.

pathetic excuse for a legal professional

I had the displeasing opportunity to speak w/Theodore on a matter to possibly retain his service. Let me just say that he would be the last person I would utilize or recommend for legal assistance. He is the epitome of being a condescending, asinine (non) professional person who has a very belittling... disposition when speaking to those outside the legal arena and does not afford one the opportunity to get a word in edge wise. My word of advise to him would be to humble himself and not allow his years of (supposedly) legal expertise and experience cloud his vision, because at the end of the day, his treatment of how he handles his interaction with the public can make or break him and his continuous legal career. His need for social improvement is comparable to that of a doctor who would need to refresh their bedside manners and politeness !!!
