A criminal waste of time and money

I wouldn’t send my worst enemy to this completely useless attorney. This guy will only make whatever problems you have worse. He will not return calls or emails and he’ll most likely no-show for any consultations you book after you pay him. Earlier in this process I had to file a grievance with the s...tate bar to get him to do what I paid him to do. Now I’m back in the same spot with him and still not done with my divorce. I would have been thrilled to leave a good review here because I actually think he’s a knowledgeable attorney but it’s not worth the problems you’ll have just trying to get him to do his job. Lots of money paid to him for what should have been an easy case. Check out other review sites and BBB too. I will work as long as necessary to make sure he is disbarred.

Dear Phil, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I genuinely appreciate your honesty, even though I’m saddened to hear about your experience. I want to sincerely apologize for any frustration or inconvenience you faced during our time working together. As you may recall from the time I represented you, during that time, I was navigating a deeply personal and challenging period in my life following the loss of my wife. Balancing my professional responsibilities with the needs of my three young children was incredibly difficult as I adjusted to my new norm. While this is not an excuse, it does explain some of the challenges I faced in providing the level of service you expected and deserved. I value my clients and their cases, and I always strive to deliver the best outcomes possible. If you felt that I fell short, I am truly sorry. Your concerns about communication and responsiveness are taken seriously, and I have been committed to improving these aspects of my practice while reorganizing and rebuilding my practice after the death of my wife. If you are open to it, I would like to discuss your situation further and see how I can help address your concerns. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at 817-382-8333. Thank you for your understanding during this difficult time. Best regards, Donald C. Nemec

Neglect

Scam artist not an attorney Why is he allowed to practice law is baffling. Does not answer his phone , does not reply to emails or text messages , has you scheduling on his calendar and does not call you . It took a full year to get in front of judge and FINALLY I got a order BUT wait Donald was su...ppose to prepare it then review it with the other party and get it back to the judge ( the hearing was in July) it’s October and I still don’t have a copy This man was over paid Has countless numbers of family emergency’s Unprepared Has no clue what is going with these cases he keeps stealing money from people for I just want what I paid for and for the state bar to hold him accountable for playing with the lives of my children and myself Donald has no accountability , no compassion as he claims He is skating by as an attorney and should be disbarred

Dear Tammy, Thank you for sharing your concerns. I genuinely regret that you feel this way about your experience, especially given the challenges you faced during that difficult time. I want to acknowledge the personal circumstances that impacted my ability to respond promptly. My wife passed away while I was handling your case. Since my wife’s passing, I have been managing my practice while raising three young children alone, which has been an incredibly demanding journey. This does not excuse any lapses in communication, and for that, I sincerely apologize. It is important to me that every client feels heard and supported. I appreciate your feedback regarding the timeline and communication regarding your case. I understand how critical these matters are, especially when they involve your children. Over the past 2.5 years, my organization and focus has improved dramatically and I am proud to say that our team is handling more cases and better than we ever have before. I again apologize for the experience you encountered during my personal crisis. My clients’ trust in my services means a great deal to me, and I want to ensure all clients receive the attention and assistance they deserve. Thank you for your understanding. Sincerely, Donald C. Nemec
