Brian Lamar Ponder

Based on an industry referral, I contacted Brian to file suit against finance company and a student loan processor During consultation Brian agreed to represent me. He stated that he needed 1500 retainer fee for each suit filed. He stated those funds would cover out court filing fees and out of pocke...t fees related to filing. He stated that he would be compensated by including attorneys fee as damages and would be paid by lender. Once retainer was paid, my phone calls, text and emails went unanswered. Voice mail was not activated to receive messages. I reached out to the person who referred him, shortly after Brian emailed me and said he would be available following day. It was another 2 days before he called. He requested documents, I said I would call after sending. Very difficult to contact. Last conversation Brian, after months. Nothing done. Brian stated that he was not going to spend years working my case and he did I wouldn receive much because his fees would absorb any financial gain, leaving nothing for me. He instead offered to work on deleting items from my credit report instead. He accused of looking for a windfall. I asked for a refund to which he stated he would calculate his fees and return any amount left over. I told him that he had no right to keep it because the service he was ordering was not what I contracted or paid for and he hadn't done anything related. His response was to send me an invoice charging me for sending an receiving emails. Even the emails asking for updates and to contact me. Over 2500 .

I hired Brian to help with my credit profile for purchase. I paid him $3k and he did nothing. He just took my money and kept promising he was working on it. He never did. He stopped returning calls and emails. This was 2021. Now the housing market is through the roof and interest rates have gone fro...m 3% to 7% while waiting on him to do his job. So Brian had caused me a financial loss if we still can afford a home.

Do not hire this attorney I hired him to address accounts for myself and husband in December 2018. This gentleman enrolled me into his program, collected payment every month and never work on either of our credit files. I attempted to reach him several times for a status update to which he never r...esponded. He never responded to any of my emails or calls. I reached out to him on 2/22/19, 4/3/19, 5/20/19 and eventually requested for full cancellation on 8/11/19. He finally admitted after speaking with him that he indeed did not do any of the work that was agreed upon. I requested for immediate cancellation and am going to be pursuing legal action to recover a refund for services not rendered. As he isn’t willing to refund me for services not rendered.

After speaking with Brian I immediately noticed how knowledgeable he is. I have tried everything to get my credit back on track and Brian was amazing at helping me. Would always answer my questions and concerns, and just very helpful. He completed what I felt was the impossible and helped me get my... credit back. I can't express how thankful I am that I found Brian Ponder Esq. I would highly recommend him to anyone. The only thing you will be sorry about is waiting so long. He truly is top notch and the best out there. Thank you again Brian Ponder Esq for everything!!
