Dennis Paul Block

If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, "I have too much money, too much free time, and my blood pressure is simply too low," then Dennis Block is the firm for you! They truly provide a boutique experience in professional negligence. Here is why they deserve a standing ovation: • World-Class Commun...ication: I didn't realize "Ghosting" was a legal strategy, but they’ve mastered it. Their phone lines must be connected to a black hole, and their email response time is best measured in "geological eras." • Charming Customer Service: Dealing with their staff is like being cuddled by a cactus. If you enjoy being treated like a massive inconvenience for asking about the case you’re paying for, you’re in for a treat. • The $5,000 Charity Drive: I’m still trying to process the "legal genius" required to force a landlord to return $5,000 in legally collected rent. Apparently, having the money you’re owed is "against the case." It’s a bold move to pay a company to help you lose five grand, but they pulled it off effortlessly. • The Perfect Ending: Thanks to their stellar advice and lightning-fast efficiency, my tenant passed away right after I handed back the money. Now, my property has been sitting vacant for three months. It’s impressive, really—I’m out the fees, the $5,000, and a quarter-year of rent. Summary: Dennis Block is perfect if you want to pay premium prices to be insulted, ignored, and financially drained. For everyone else who likes keeping their money and their sanity: Run.

Worst, most detrimental Attorney, and most dishonest Attorney representation we have ever experienced. I am an attorney, but I do not practice Eviction / Unlawful Detainer law. So my partner and I retained Dennis Block’s office to handle an Eviction Trial to evict a non-paying Tenant. Huge mista...ke, unfortunately. Attorney Block charged a high retainer, we received very little representation services, and they were largely useless. Especially considering that Block’s Office charged us many thousands of dollars and then promised us a partial refund which we never received. Despite many requests fir the refund, all we received were broken promises and lies. Their Office clearly and repeatedly breached their agreement to refund us the promised funds. Our complaints to the State Bar, requests for Arbitration, and requests for our promised refund have so far been fruitless. So we now have no choice but to sue the Block Office for Breach of their Agreements and to get our refund. The Block Office and the State Bar oversight have let us down for months.

This office treated me like garbage and refused to answer simple questions. The attorney sent to cover Block walked away from me and wouldn't talk to me in a court. The office is besieged with calls. I once spent two hours listening to music. After the eviction was arranged, Block couldn't read email...s indicating that the tenant left on her own accord and proceeded to arrange an eviction of paying tenants because he doesn't get phone messages or emails and then he writes emails saying he does. When told of the problems in dealing with what should be the simplest case ever, he SCREAMED at the top of his lungs as if he's lost his marbles. He told me to never use his law firm again. As if I needed to pay to be treated as he chose to treat me.

So much bad advice. They don't strategize with you. You are just a number! The number to you rental. Seriously. I have received horrible advice on several issues. Prior to filing eviction I wanted to address the challenges and they ignored Neville I didn't know what I was taking about. Well it all ...came up in court. The first time in court had an atty that I wanted to check his IF to confirm he was an atty that's how bad he was. The second time in court more Miney and greater losses from tenant i spoke with another atty and he got it and he said we had to settle. Had we had a strategy in the beginning that would not have happened. They are not about the client. They are about pushing as many client through the door as possible and collecting money. if you get disconnected while talking to an atty. Don't wait for them to call you back..,,, they won't. I spoke with another atty to get advise for small claims and come to find out she was wrong. The judge said I was out of my mind and who told me that. When I said Dennis Block..... oh no wonder. I learned my lesson. Don't waste your money. Hire a local atty. It's worth it.
