A Terrible Experience, But Maybe They’ll Do Better

I’ve unfortunately had a terrible experience with Neale & Fhima. My initial contact began years ago, and I wholeheartedly believe it’s because of the severe lack of attention and care to my case that I’m still awaiting settlement. Intake was quick and easy, but the rest? Well, the rest has been h...ell on earth, in my personal opinion. I don’t feel like ANY urgency has been applied to my case. I feel like just a number - the biggest fear a client could have. I signed a settlement agreement months ago and I never feel like any progress has been made on my case until I contact this “firm” requesting an update. At that point, emails are suddenly exchanged and I’m then forwarded a response from Defense……a response that would have been furnished far sooner if Neale & Fhima performed adequate follow-up without the urging of clients with long overdue settlements. Personally, I would never hire Neale & Fhima if I could begin this process again.

Fast and Great service

I hired them to help with my Lemon car. They are amazing! They took care of everything so I didn’t have to worry. The whole case was settled in two months. I was always kept in the loop of what was going on. I am very happy with their services and will definitely reccomend them.

Excellent Service & Results

I first contacted Aaron after having spoken to several other indifferent and pricey attorneys. He reviewed my case and was determined to get the best settlement for me. Aaron is a powerful advocate who cares about his clients and their needs. Whenever I had a question, he was very responsive and ...was sure to explain every detail thoroughly. He kept me informed throughout the progress of my case and was intelligent and practical with his approach. His determination and extensive experience allowed me to settle my case without having to go to court (which saved me time and energy). I have worked with other attorneys, but my experience with Mr. Fhima was by far the best. I highly recommend the Neale and Fhima firm.
