Worst Lawyer Ever!! Unprepared, Unprofessional Amateur

This sad excuse of a lawyer, just minutes prior to the court appearance, tells me this lawyer, whom I never met, was going to question me. Fiza Syed had NOTHING prepared for her to ask; I was on the 'stand' dying, the happiness of my children, & my financial future was at stake, and she had NOTHING a...fter 10 months!! The next day, the biased, fatherless [it's on her website, ha!], Judge chided Fiza Syed because she had told Syed "one witness, one lawyer" and told the judge that this lame lawyer was driving to Dallas, smh. It's funny, but she didn't mention that tight after the continuation the next day. My guess is that that lawyer left Syed's firm b/c of Fiza's incompetence. The day before the continuance, I WROTE the QUESTIONS for Fiza Syed to ask, she did/had nothing. It is a waste of money to hire this attorney. If you have no money, do it yourself, you would do better than her, smh. I had written to the board, received no response, lawyers protect each other, smh.

Nothing short of excellent!

I really love this lawyer. She’s flat out amazing. I was/am a dad that immediately felt like I’d be chugging uphill to gain custody of my child once divorce loomed. Fiza took the time to hear me, to look through the evidence I presented, and she was there EVERY step of the way. She was constantly a t...ext or an email away. I looked at other attorneys prior to retaining Fiza. I’m glad that’s all I did. Fiza is an absolute rockstar! You won’t go wrong choosing Fiza to represent you!

Best law firm for divorce case

You can’t find a better law firm. They go above and beyond to protect client’s rights. Attorney Fiza Syed is really caring and tries her best to find the best solution to help her client. I am so happy that I decided to follow my friend’s advice to retain Merchant law firm for my complicated divorce ...case.

She is not a good attorney! Not responsible

I hired her a few years ago. She did very bad and did not pay much attention to my case at all.

Believe the negative reviews

I did my research on different lawyers and decided to hire her. What a joke and waste of time. Completely dissatisfied with her services. Frank was helpful and explained the process so he was mainly the reason why I hired them. After paying the retainer fee I should’ve known that it would be a hassle... to get the divorce and custody moving along. Every meeting I’ve had with Fiza she’s been late. I’ve had to e-mail, text, call, not just her but also her team to get a hold of someone. I was told there was a process server involved and when I called the court to find out the documents mysteriously had been “lost by the court” and she had to “file them all over again”. The documents were filed and finally the papers were served, and we were supposed to set a date for mediation and no date has been set as of yet. This was supposed to happen in January. We are now in October and I’m still trying to get a hold of her by e-mail, calls, and texts and there’s no response. Do yourself a favor and find someone else.
