Wow, Wow, Wow!

My husband and I were left $375k in his grandmother's Will with her stated desire that we use the money to start a business. We had no clue about the proper steps for a business start-up. In fact, we didn't have any idea of what type business we should pursue. After a 2 hour discussion, Mr. Newson su...ggested that we begin flipping houses. It was a very obvious choice since my husband works for a builder and I am a real estate agent. We just never saw it as obvious. Within 4 months, we have flipped 5 houses and grown our $375k to nearly $700k. At this rate, we may be leaving our jobs in the next couple of years to do this fulltime. I would agree though, he is terribly expensive.

A Winner

I concur with the "Bright Light" comment. Donnie Newson does appear to be connected to some higher power that renders aid in his legal affairs for the benefit of his clients. I would suggest that you search him out and give him a try. The truth is that he is very selective and probably won't agree ...to assist you, but if he does you can be certain that you will be protected and well represented. If I could afford it, I would hire him to be with me constantly because I'm so much more confident with his support. If my mind was twisted I would chain him in my basement and go down to speak with him whenever I needed lifting. I know that sounds crazy, but reserve judgement until after you have met him. The man is amazing.

Bright Light

If you have a legal issue, I would suggest that you speak with this attorney. He is extremely difficult to engage in meaningful conversation for any significant amount of time (not sure of why that is) but he is the most insightful person I have ever met once you get him to open up. Anyone this ins...ightful has to have help from some higher power. (not sure of which)

Methodical

Newson is a man of integrity, not easily rattled and full of creativity. You can trust him to do an excellent job. He is terribly expensive, but in the end he was really worth every penny.

A sleeper.

Mr. Newson comes across as unimpressive at first. He is a soft spoken and somewhat detached man who shows little emotion. I had thoughts of using a different attorney after my first visit with him. After speaking with my pastor/mentor, I decided to give the professional relationship a little time.... I was very pleasantly surprised as I soon learned that this man is a "FREAKING ANIMAL." If you're in a fight of any sort, you are much better with him on your team and in a great deal of trouble if he is on the opposite team.
