Essure Client

This is by far the worst firm I’ve dealt with! They are horrible with keeping you updated, then when they do update you, they tell you information that isn’t true. They basically spin you around the corner and just feed you anything. Don’t get me started on the paralegal, Christina. She NEVER respond...s to emails or anything. I just don’t get it. They send out paperwork explaining your settlement, promising a certain amount with a time frame if you send back docs right away. Find out you only walk away with about 25-30% if that. Well well well, Now it’s, oh a certain amount was held back for medical liens and the resolution department must finalize before we can release payment. Well I would love to see documentation stating that liens were actually placed and money held back for that purpose. With that being said, I feel like we’ve been scammed all around!!! Praying we all get to the bottom of this and receive our freaking money!!! We’ve waited long enough!!!

I'm not sure who you are because you did not say your name here. However, I obviously did not do a good job explaining the lien process in my email to you. Health insurance companies have a legal right to be reimbursed out of your settlement if they pay for health care related to your injury. I know it doesn't seem fair after what happened to you but that is the current law. Also, you should be receiving monthly updates from us via email and text message. Please reply to my email letting me know who you are and I will personally call you to go over everything. And I will work with the court appointed lien resolution company to get the documents you want regarding the liens. Have a good weekend. - Don Worley

Awesome Firm

I contacted this office after being strung along and then dumped by other firms in my home state of Arizona. According to the latest update for my case, it has been filed in the court, so now it’s just a matter of time. But through this whole process this firm has been great. When I contact them they... know exactly who I am and what its in reference to. They are always very sweet, helpful, and very polite. I am especially impressed that Mr Worley takes the time to check in and lets me know where we are in this process. Granted it’s a general video link that is aimed at all of his clients in a particular group, but thats fine with me, none of the other lawyers I had previously, ever even bothered to know my name let alone contact me, ever! Oh, thats wrong, they sent a letter stating they could not take my case after stringing me along for months! All the while I’m laid up in bed unable to do anything! I would recommend McDonald Worley to everyone and anyone who might ask.

Slip and fall case

I was so lucky this firm took my case. I have to say that J. Kyle Beale of this firm was excellent during the whole process. He kept me informed and answered any questions I had. He guided me through the process and and had was able to get me a great settlement so I could get the physical therapy I ...needed.

Houston Personal Injury Lawyer

This Houston based injury lawyer helped me in one of my lowest moments. I felt humiliated, singled out, depressed and he not only got me a vast settlement for my claim, he got me justice and peace of mind. I would glowingly recommend to any that are in need of legal services.

  • 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.
