Todd S Barfuss

I wish I could leave 0 stars, but the site won't allow that. I am leaving this review to warn others not to hire Todd Barfuss. I am researching how to report him to the state bar for his misconduct. I have also reported him and his law firm to the Better Business Bureau. If you have had a bad encount...er with Todd Barfuss due to him misrepresenting himself, I strongly suggest you do the same. Todd Barfuss promised me to keep my costs low, and he milked every penny from me that he could. He assured me in our first meeting that he would keep my costs down and use paralegals to do that. Todd Barfuss prided himself on saving his clients as much money as he possibly could... I now realize he would have said anything to me to get me to hire him and to get his hands on my money. Todd Barfuss is charming and manipulative and will tell you anything to make you feel like he is capable of helping you. Todd Barfuss is not transparent; he will not send you monthly billing statements, and if you ask for one, it will take lots of time to get one. You will be shocked that he has spent as much of your money as possible. The billing invoice will be lumped together with many things he claims he has done. Be careful; he will call you a lot to ensure you do not have a paper trail and continue to assure you that he is keeping costs low and helping you. He is incompetent, and I'm appalled that he still has a license to practice the law. I am still fighting Todd to get the money he owes me; if I had received monthly billing statements from him, I would have been able to fire Todd immediately for misspending my money. I advise you to avoid hiring this man and find another attorney to help you. I can not speak of the other attorneys working at this firm and their capabilities; all I can speak on my experience with Todd Barfuss.

Todd Barbuss told me through email all the legal action he was going to do. I hired him in March of 2022. It is now February of 2023. He actually phoned me only three times and each time it was to ask for money. His emails were always about how he was making my case his top priority now. He tol...d me a few times he was immediately filing the case and it would take about 30 days. I got excuses such as he was sick. His family was sick. He'd been busy and forgotten about my case. He asked me for money in June 2022 to file the case. I didn't hear from him again until November even though I had sent a few emails asking about the current standing of the case. That November email said he knew I had every right to be frustrated with him. In this almost years time, he never asked for an address to even have to dependent served. There are good, capable attorneys out there. In my personal experience with Todd Barbuss was a waste of almost a year and $4,700 dollars. Take your business elsewhere.
