Hernia mesh

On the hernia mesh I called and I talked to a lady and she said she would call me back in a couple days and it's been oh at least a week and they said I would not be getting the money for out of my hernia mesh because I wasn't qualified or they say something else was going on with it and I don't know... what they're talking about She was supposed to check into it so they lie about everything I wish I could give him no stars because that's what that's worth.

Have been trying to speak to anyone at your offices…. All of them! Was told 6 months ago that there had been approximately 30 cases chosen to be tried in court out of a total of 6k cases around the U. S.. There have been no updates what so ever. I have been maintaining rigid Flexability now for appr...oximately 4 years! I have seen nothing out of your office that leads me to believe there is a light at the end of the dark legal tunnel R Leininger

Like many of you, I have been waiting for some reasonable update other than “waiting on the 3rd party… we thought it would have been done by now,…etc” My issue is that there are NO monthly updates. People have signed for their settlement and all communication stopped!! You are left calling instead of... receiving an update. Honestly, it feels like they got you to sign & now ghost you. Before a settlement was offered you were well informed..after the settlement was offered you are left to constantly calling (which in some strange way you feel like you harassing them). I definitely have serious issues with this law firm, not only for the way they are treating myself & others but for sending documentation with the wrong phone number! (To which the gentleman that answered told me he was ABSOLUTELY FIRE BREATHING MAD that their clients were calling- he admitted to getting hundreds of calls so he started telling people anything!) I relayed this information to the staff & provided documentation of the wrong phone number & what the owner of that phone number was telling their clients. Still no email went out anyone explaining what occurred. All I received was a thank you for letting us know & we will correct it. They made the correction but still fail to update their clients. My honest opinion is they care more about signing up clients & their image than actually helping their clients. Ask yourself, how much effort does it really take to send an email just to let clients know their are still WORKING on your case? The estimates they give seem made up, you call this month & they say “we hope next month or two, but call back”. At this point I regret going with this law firm. And its not about how long its taking its about the CUSTOMER SERVICE you are providing or the lack of. I would NEVER recommend this law firm!

Rhonda, I'm sorry for your frustration. It is true that we are waiting on the lien resolution company to complete all of the medical liens for the settlement. I know it is taking longer than expected and I can explain further the delay with lienholders such as Medicare. I see that you are receiving monthly updates but it just says "waiting on lien resolution." Sorry that is all that we have for now. But this process should be complete very soon. We are just as frustrated as you, I promise you. We don't get paid or get our expenses back either until the lien resolution process is finished. I should have a better update for you within 30 days and I will give you a call. Thank you for your patience - Don Worley

Waiting on a lawyer to call me back. The paralegal said my case was trying to be added in the settlement. i don’t understand why after I almost didn’t make it off the operating table at the hospital when I was advised to have the doctors to remove the filter. They could remove because it was too clos...e to my heart. They are recommending crushing it…. The team said my name was over looked. I would appreciate if someone contacted me and called me back.

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.
