Unhelpful staff

It seems that there has been a change for the worse at Edward Singer's law firm. Previously, when I called his office, there was always someone to help me. Now, his people seem to be in their own silos. I would speak to someone at the firm about scheduling a meeting and then ask a question about... my case. The scheduler tells me to speak to someone else even though he/she could easily answer my question (and had done so in the past). It seems they now have a "not my job" attitude. It feels like I'm being given the "run-around". When I call the second person, she's not available and I have to explain the whole thing over again.

unorganized staff and poor attorney communication

When I was injured at work which is a government employee my Union referred and assigned me to mr. Singer to represent me. It has been a very long process and I have been stressed out because of poor communication and the fact that his staff is unorganized and is always a big turn around I believe I ...have had four separate paralegals assigned to my case. I just hope that the final results will change my view.

Stop letting amatuers handle my case

I handled Mr. Singer because he had a reputation for being very knowledgeable workers comp. lawyer. But, after he took my case, he handed my case off to a non-lawyer (Sophia) who I can barely understand. She's not a lawyer and I find it impossible to get a hold of Ed. He sends Sophia to court for ...him though she's not a lawyer. When I hired Ed, I expected a lawyer to handle my injury case not someone "paralegal".. Sophia hardly even speaks English.

no communicating from office staff or Edward Singer

I I was referred to add words singer by the Union and I am NOT happy I am left in the dark with no answers no update only the unknown. I am continuously leaving voice messages emails even text messages with no reply no returns acknowledgement from the office staff or Edward himself. This is a very i...mportant case involving government agency.

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.
