Worst experience with Loriann Owens

If I could give zero stars I would, because we had absolutely the worst experience with Ms. Owens. What should have been a very easy case for us to recover our damages turned into a long dragged out nightmare due to her lack of communication with us or opposing counsel, she cancelled depositions at t...he last minute after we had arranged to take time off from work, failed to inform of us important court dates, and even failed to appear at a court date where we were left to address the judge by ourselves. I believe we would have been much better off representing ourselves in small claims court.

Replied last May 07, 2023

Edited update: I did not leave you to fend for yourselves in court, you agreed to a settlement, refused to sign, wasted the court's time for refusing to sign and allowing me to dismiss, and then hired a new attorney who claimed to represent you. You then contacted my insurance company attempting to force them to accept your own claim. Your attorney demanded I offer you "a 5 figure" number, which made for a good laugh, only to come back later with a nominal request, despite my adamant refusal to subject myself to a shakedown. I am sorry you feel this way. Communication is a top priority at our firm, and we are unaware of any failure to adequately communicate with our clients. Please note, an outcome with which a client is not happy is not equivalent to poor performance, as each matter is unique and there are no guaranteed final outcomes in the litigation process. While lay persons may feel a case is “very easy”, they often lack the legal expertise and experience to make such a determination, which is often why they seek representation. While I cannot speak to your individual experience with our firm, we do appreciate your feedback as we strive to meet the needs of every client.

Landlord/Tenant

I wish I can give more than 5 stars for my review. Mrs. Owens went above and beyond helping me deal with my landlord issues. She is caring, ethical and extremely knowledgeable. Mrs. Owens worked very hard to guide me through a successful resolution with my case. If you are lucky enough to have Lori b...y your side consider yourself blessed. I higly recommend!!
