If I could give zero I would

Frank was hired to represent my son at his school for obtaining educational services. First impression- he was disheveled and late. We paid a flat fee up front. When the time came for a school meeting, Frank did not show up nor did he respond to our requests made by text, email and calls for him to b...e there. He blamed all miscommunication on his staff. He did not help us at all except cause more stress to an already stressful situation we were seeking help with. We requested our money back and he agreed but then ignored us for over a year. Finally we were able to file a claim to get our money back over 2 years after we first sought his counsel. Seems he is more of a criminal lawyer not a child advocate. I do not recommend him as a child advocate.

I regret the bad client experience in this case. The client expectations were very high and I must respectfully disagree that nothing was accomplished.

Was honest and open

Met with Frank after I had been let go from a job due to a previous employers non compete. Although at this point there was not much to be done, he offered some great advice for how to handle in the future. Really appreciated the honest answers.

Great work done on a very short time. Special attention to detail.

Frank and his team defended me on an emergency litigation matter, and he poured everything he had into the case. I was incredibly appreciative of the attention his team paid to my case, and they were always very responsive if I needed something.

Great service

I had to hire Mr. Housh for counsel pertaining to my professional licenses. He went above and beyond helping me obtain my license. At the end the State honored me with my licenses and quoted Mr. Housh encouraging words about me in the documents. I would happily hire Mr. Housh again if needed.

Hiring Frank Housh Was The Best Thing I Did

I'm an anxiety ridden person by nature, but when my status as a state-employee was being challenged, and my anxiety was increasing significant, I consulted with Frank. He knows labor laws for state employees better than the state. He was able to predict with complete accuracy the state's approach;... he was able to head off any problems; and he was able to obtain a fair settlement. In addition, he is a calming, reassuring person--somebody I needed to have on my side. 5+ stars!
