so upset

like many others I'm seeing in these reviews I have also tried hundreds of times to get ahold of someone about my case. I do get the monthly updates the last few mths but when only once was able to talk to the paralegal. I signed my settlement over 2 1/2 years ago. I have also been told over a yea...r my check would be coming to me that they were sending them out....nothing still. I am really upset and keep getting g the same story over and over till I'm about in tears when I get told the same thing each time. I have been doing some checking and I have been told that I should have already have my money that it should t have taken this long since mine was settled and signed . It says that manyblike me have suffered so much and still dealing with the stress of trying to get what is deserved. and the monthy updates doesn't really help they never change

I don't know who you are because you posted this as "anonymous." But my firm obviously did not do a good job of explaining the settlement process, including the lien resolution process, to you. Please email me after the holiday weekend and I will personally contact you to go over the process. Have a good weekend. - Don Worley

Lousy office staff

I have called so many times that I have lost count. The office staff takes my message but I never hear from them. I receive generic emails but I would rather hear about my case with a phone call. When I have spoken with the law office I’ve been told at a settlement should be in 60-90 days, but have n...ot heard anything since . I’m Very frustrated that no one will communicate with me nor will they give a true answer when they do finally contact me. It makes me wonder if the attorneys at McDonald Worley know what their office staff are doing or do they really care,

It's been a long time and I've been patiently waiting.

I've been with this group for about 4 years or more and I recently received an update saying my information was complete. When I called a few weeks back and spoke with a paralegal, she was very kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable. The only problem is, it's been such a long time and there's no date in... sight of when my case may come to settlement. She stated that it takes a long time and that's understandable, my only worry is that the year or more that she mentioned, could turn into an eternity. What would be helpful is if the firm, could show clients documents of some sort, proving that your case is actually going to be brought up for settlement. From what I see here, many, have those questions That would be a great way for people to know, it's actually happening and not some sort of scam as some people are thinking. I believe that Mcdonald Scott Worley is respectable company, trying their best to get through all these cases.

My hands are up!!!!

I filed with the Firm in 2018 in a class action lawsuit I was told several months ago possibly even last year that settlement would either be paid out in June or October of this year time went by still didn't hear anything from them so I emailed them again I get emails back responding with attitude l...ike I am a bother to them when I hired them and the fact that they said they would let me know when they have more information and it completely changed then receive an email that it will be wrapped up by the end of this year and still no word. The Firm has gone through so many paralegals over the years I didn't know which ones to contact and when I didn't hear from anyone I finally called and was told they would call me back. Totally understand being in class action lawsuit as big as the one that I'm in a lot of people and a lot of hands I thank McDonald Worley so much for their time and efforts but yes I am as well frustrated because I am trying to look for updates put it on the Internet or just in general on their site and I don't see anything I don't even see anything posted or you know shown on the news anymore about the lawsuit I'm really starting to think that no there is no money at the end of this site and I'm really starting to get upset at the beginning of all of this when I did the consultation in 2018 I was told a young lady my age was awarded 1.2 million dollars in her lawsuit. NO, I won't even get close to that if any once all things are said and done.

  • 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.
