Thomas Hall Brehme IV

I have no means to validate the claims and reviews of others, except: I have received written electronic communication from him to pay $500 to $1,000 upfront to handle my eviction case. I make no comments on his abilities as a lawyer nor if he has committed the acts others have accused him of. Bas...ed on these reviews, however, I probably will not use him. That's all I have to say.

Thomas Hall Brehme IV 's reviews indicate he does to others, as he did to me for 17 months. He took a lot of money from me, promising legal services, then disappeared for months at a time, leaving me in the dark, wondering if he's ever going to answer my emails/texts/phone calls, then months later h...e responds/acts like nothing's wrong. He told me I needed to pay more money, I paid him 3 times, and he said he did legal paperwork, sent it to me, and it was all wrong, not even as I had shared with him, addressed to wrong people, addresses all mixed up and had the court send it instead of the process server I paid him for! He doesn't listen, and disappears for so long, gets everything mixed up, and blames everything on so many unlawful detainers since the pandemic, like he's too busy, not my problem. He promised to have a process server serve my defendant, he failed to do so 2 times, and it was getting close to time for trial and I was panicking, he finally answered me, saying not to worry, he put in for a continuance, for me to go on virtually, tell the judge I wanted a continuance. The judge said the defendant wasn't served, granted me a continuance. I wasn't happy at all, because I did not want to delay this court date, I needed to get this resolved, as I was ripped off by a landlord and my health is terrible, having had 2 heart surgeries/brain bleed/sepsis that almost all took my life 3 times, and I needed to recover this money that was ripped off by this landlord, because I wasn't able to run my business anymore, due to my brain bleed. This lawyer knew the dire situation I was in, but didn't contact me for 5 months after the 1st court date, and now the next court date was 5 months later, all due to this lawyer not doing what I paid him for, serving the defendant, preparing all the evidence I gave him shortly after hiring him, over a year earlier, paying him $1310.00 ! It was July now 2023 and the next court date was Aug 1, due to being continued after the 1st court date this lawyer caused, the defendant not being served, so I confronted him and he promised again that he would be serving her & he would eat the service fee, which was ridiculous, since I paid him to have a process server serve her, so I sent him proof of my payment I had made for the service fee, $120 plus other fees totaling another $270, then he promised again that he would serve her the next day. Once again, I believed him, I was desperate and had no choice, and gave him room to do as he promised again, now only 10 days before the 2nd court date, having promised me he'd also do trial exhibits/prep, but hadn't contacted me for 5 months! I emailed him panicking, and he said don't worry, but he hadn't served the defendant, and didn't have any of my evidence put in exhibits or any other pre-trial prep he promised he would do and I paid for! I couldn't believe it, I had trial the next morning and now 17 months after I hired him, he still had not done what I had paid him for! I had to buy exhibit software and learn how to do it, to do the exhibits myself so I could try to get them in on time, I also paid him to do! He lied to me again, and told me she had already been served, saying that the documents in the ROA were proof of service, dated before the 1st court date, and I knew that was a lie, because the judge verified she wasn't served and continued the 1st court date, and this was in email, and then he disappeared and wouldn't answer me anymore! I had to go to court virtually the next morning, and the judge said she had not been served and dismissed my case! I was furious this lawyer knew he didn't serve her, that I paid for, and lied repeatedly to me, abused me for 17 months with lies and knew my case was going to get dismissed, due to his not doing what I paid him for, and he had a smug attitude like he could care less! Now he won't answer my emails, texts or calls, thinking he is going to steal all my money I paid him to sue this landlord!

I had another attorney representing me in an eviction case and was not satisfied with the service I was receiving. I contacted Mr. Brehme to review my case as it stood and give me his take on it. He quickly responded to phone calls and emails and offered very helpful advice on my case, giving me know...ledge that my attorney had not. I highly recommend him.

My husband and I found T. Hall Brehme online. We were dealing with a complicated landlord/tenant bait and switch, breach of contract dispute. Hall was very knowledgeable and able to reach a resolution quickly. Hall went above and beyond what the normal attorney would do to resolve the situation. He l...istened to us, reviewed extensive documentation and represented us both professionally and aggressively. Hall's legal knowledge is an asset - he presented us with options we didn't know were available to us. He consistently followed up with us and was very easy to reach via phone and email. His fees were very reasonable for the work he performed. When dealing with unscrupulous people, you need the right attorney representing you - T. Hall Brehme is that attorney. We would absolutely use him again and we would definitely recommend him to friends and family.
