Worst Lawyers and Attorneys Ever!!!!

I am highly disappointed and dissatisfied with the Sanford Law Firm company. Their numbers are 501-356-3095 and 501- 502- 0045. Their attorneys and lawyers had one of the worst attitudes ever . I had some questions about a case and no one even addressed my questions or concerns. One thing I certain...ly do know for sure is that when you do not have good team lawyers and attorneys that do not care about your customers , do not value your customers , and do not have patience with customers, they can really bring your company down. Just absolutely ridiculous what a waste of time and energy !!!!! How am I going to be interested in trying to do a business with you when your attorney and lawyers only cares about one thing and that’s making sales . Unbelievable I am highly disappointed to be treated this way.

You can't go wrong with Sandford Law Firm fighting for your rights

Josh and Sanford Law Firm are very well organized and thoroughly research the law to give you a just recommendation. I have truly been pleased with the professionalism shown and by the outcome when Sanford Law handled my case. I would recommend them because honesty is hard to find these days and that... is the most important aspect you will find at Sandford Law Firm.

I would not recommend Joshua Sanford under and circumstances

I would not recommend the Sanford Law Firm to meet your legal needs by any means. Once I hired Joshua Sanford as my attorney for a simple name change for my son, I found that Mr. Sanford was unprofessional and outright incompetent at what he had been hired to complete. Throughout my entire experience... with Mr. Sanford, I never received updates on my case unless I contacted his office to get them. Weeks would pass by without a word. After 5 months (and I contacted him to find out what was going on) he decided to tell me that “HE” dismissed my case without making me aware. To make a long story short, a grievance has been filed so that no one else has to deal with Mr. Joshua Sanford’s devious tactics. Please heed my warning and invest your money in an attorney that actually does their job, because Joshua Sanford puts a cloud over all attorneys’ reputations. -Jasmine H 

refreshing

My family and I would like to express our thanks, and bring to your attention how grateful we are for the counsel given by your firm. Your associate Ben Donathan did a great job as our representing attorney, and we received a favorable decision. We would also like to thank the staff who assisted Ben... with the case. We talked to a few other lawyers before choosing Ben – here are some of the reasons we chose him: we felt as though he really believed in our case, he listened and did a thoughtful job of sorting out the primary issues and potential deciding factors and was able to communicate those to us in a way that we could understand. Ben was compassionate and sympathetic yet clear in his expectations of us. Ben also met with us after hours, as I am not able to leave work early. Ben’s demeanor is refreshing, was a great fit for our family, and caused a clear difference in the courtroom as the plaintiff and their counsel came forward. It became clear that the children’s welfare was the most critical factor in our case. Thanks again, and please give our appreciation to Ben and his staff.

"There is no employment/labor lawyer in Arkansas I could recommend more highly than Josh Sanford. He knows the field, he cares about his clients, and he takes cases (and WINS THEM!) that other attorneys are not willing to touch. The attorneys and staff who work for him are smart and savvy. I highly recommend him and his firm for any employment/labor issue"
