Excellent service, expert advice

Thank you for your assistance and advice in regards to my employment issue. The advice was well worth the cost and helped me avoid what could have been a situation that resulted in the loss of my job due to the actions of another employee. Learning more about my rights, and helping me write an approp...riate response saved my job and earned back the respect of my employer.

I am A happy client

I am a client of Lucius Wallace. He was very proffesional in handling my foreclosure case. My case was slow going so I brought on Mr.Wallace and his firm. They got things done in a timely manner and I am very pleased with the outcome of this case. I would highly recommend him and his firm to anyone

Got results and made me feel comfortable with the whole process

Lucius "Luke" worked on a personal injury case for me after the at-fault party's insurance company's offer wasn't even enought money to cover the medical bills. Due to a confidentiality agreement I can’t discuss the case in great detail but let me just say everything workout beyond my expectations. ... I didn’t feel like he “nickeled and dimed” me on the expenses. I also felt like I knew what the time table was going to be, percentage of the award to his firm (if settled before trial and after the trial) and all anticipated expenses up front, I felt prepared for every part of the process and it’s because Luke cares about his clients and was professional towards me and my family. I’m forever thankful.

Review of Lucius James Wallace

Mr. Wallace was hired to assist with an identity theft case, in which a credit card was opened in my name without my knowledge or consent and a subsequent large balance was in collections. After years of attempting to solve this myself, it became clear that an attorney would be required to help get ...my good name back. Mr. Wallace was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, and immediately began the process of removing this from my credit. While there was a very significant amount of work and time needed to clear up these types of cases, he would walk me through what I needed to do, step by step, and keep me informed of any and all developments. He spent significant time preparing and coaching me prior to the deposition, and did the same in preparation for a potential court appearance. Fortunately, after a few years of applying the pressure, this credit card company offered a settlement. Mr. Wallace not only negotiated the highest possible settlement, but ensured the wording specifically stated this is not my debt and would never appear on my credit report in the future. This was a horrible experience that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy, but this lawfirm (and Luke, himself) did everything possible to keep my heartaches to a minimum. I would highly recommend their services should anybody find themselves in this unfortunate situation in the future.
