Amazing results

Mr. Mayo was amazing. I was having a horrible time trying to deal with the manufacturer of my vehicle and it’s issues. My issues started a month after the car was purchased and continued all the way through the settlement. The settlement would not of occurred with out Mr Mayo as the manufacturer refu...sed to respond or assist with my issues. Mr Mayo is very professional and knowledgeable and explained the whole process and what to expect through out the whole process. I will recommend him to all of my friends and peers.

Quiter

Mack was my attorney for about 9 months, at first he seemed like a great attorney, but soon after he stopped replying to my emails and never seemed to return my calls. It felt as if he was dodging me when I called his office. After he suddenly quit for no apparent reason. I find out that he messed u...p arbitration a few months prior to quitting. He continued to email me about great news he had and that he would call to tell me as soon as he could. Three weeks went by and still no email and no phone calls. I called his office several times and left messages and never got a response. My thoughts on this attorney is that he was looking for quick easy money and when it comes to the actual attorney job he is over his head and doesn't know how to deal with the situation in a professional manner. Incompetent might be a better way to describe this attorney.

I would hire him again!

Finally, this process has been completed. What a long and drawn out process especially when my tenants did everything possible to avoid being served. Attorney Mayo made the eviction process easy for me. I knew what he was up against and he put my mind at ease. What was very convenient was that I neve...r stepped a foot into his office. All correspondence was done by e-mail or phone. I know I could NOT have done this on my own. If ever, I find myself in this situation again, I will go to him first, before trying to serve the tenants first. Thank you for all your help!
