Confused based off reviews

Minimum responses, no updates, no movement , no traction on anything and false promises given. Are these reviews based on private pay? Court appointed obviously isn’t getting the same experience.

Hard to respond when you hide behind the “ anonymous” thing.

It has been 2 week since my husband got this mans information and i have been waiting for a call. I wear my watch to sleep so I dont miss his call. i have googled his name to find out any other reachable numbers. i guess if he is not getting paid he does not care to respond. i would love to hire this... man based off the reviews but the fact that we are non texas residents plays a major part in our worries for this case. at this point only prayer will help. seems like another lawyer who wants money and not to change lives!!!

Sorry, I didn’t call you. But I don’t call wives or girlfriends unless they are either the victim or a witness.

Excellent, honest, caring attorney! Hire him now!

I HIGHLY recommend Curtis if you are looking for a caring, compassionate, straight forward lawyer. He helped me and my husband navigate through a terrifying and confusing time after I was hit head on by a drunk driver and spent a week in the hospital, months out of work and bills piling up. Curtis ...spent countless hours and months working with car insurance and health insurance claims, hospitals, doctors, ambulance. He was honest with us, worked tirelessly to get us a fair settlement so that I still have funds for any future medical care I may need after my injuries. I would recommend him to anyone I know!

Gets the job done!

If you are looking for an amazing attorney Mr. Fortunberry is your guy. Super professional and responsive. I never felt in more better hands than his. He is knowledgeable about the court system and the law. I was terrified at the thought of going to jail. He helped me out when I was at my lowest. My ...family and I owe him everything. Thank you for handling my case, I am forever grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
