HOAX

I am with the roundup case, my paralegal that was helping me no longer works there. I have recieved any updates my case has not even been filed it's been 3 years. I'm starting to think this is a joke, and they string people along making them think they have a case and never file anything. I've looked... this lawyer up and is all about himself traveling, movies as if he's some kind of celebrity. The clients do not matter, they can not five any information except it's in process of being file.

Hi Carolyn, Thank you for your continued patience. We understand that you recently spoke with the paralegal, and going forward, you’ll have her direct contact for any questions or updates related to your case. We genuinely hope all of your questions were addressed, and if there’s anything you're still unsure about, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to make sure you are fully informed as we continue moving forward.

Active around Up Case

I have an active Round Up Case with this firm and can’t get an update from them. My last update received from the firm was 6 months ago. I repeatedly call and leave messages with no response. I was assigned a paralegal and she no longer works for the firm, but I have received no communication about ...her not working for the firm. The only reason I know she doesn’t work there is my email got bounced back as undeliverable. Highly concerning and it has caused me to lose faith that this “award winning” firm is properly representing me.

Round up and my father who may not see this money

This is very frustrating as I have made numerous calls on my dad Lee Dodson’s behalf as I am his power of attorney but they don’t ever give you but one answer we are still waiting. If they want their clients to be happy they should answer the calls with some news not the same old baloney. My dad coul...d die and that would be very sad. Get your act together. Please help me help my dad! Heather Aitken

Essure Client

Good Day, I’ve reached out to you on 08/30/2022 & 09/12/2022 in regard to the medical liens. I haven’t heard or gotten a response from anyone at your law firm. I have requested documentation stating the amounts of monies, if any to be paid to medicaid or whomever for liens. I was told the settlemen...t amount was over 42,000 but only received 10,000. You all withheld $5,861.92 from my settlement and told me it was being held for that reason until the lien’s resolution department finalized things. I haven’t heard from anyone since the end of July. I’ve contacted Medicaid, and to their knowledge, there’s no monies owed to them. I’m aware that if they paid for any procedures or anything they are entitled to be reimbursed. I would truly appreciate a response back with an update! I will be reaching out to the Attorney General of Texas for some help soon as well. Thank you for all you’ve done. Looking forward to speaking with you soon.

KIzzy: I'm sorry that you haven't received a satisfactory response. I will send you another email today and give you a call also if you want. I obviously didn't explain the lien process very well. There is a court appointed lien resolution company who is responsible for negotiating down the healthcare liens. If any entity such as Medicaid pay for any healthcare related to your injury, then they are entitled to be reimbursed out of any settlement. We will send you all updates we receive from the lien resolution company once they are received. - Don Worley

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.

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.
