I should have known it was a bad idea when I said to Travis "don't I have to be injured to make a personal injury claim?" and he responded "eh... wellllll...." They delayed important medical care without telling me, depriving me of getting a timely (and not $3000+) brain scan. They didn't even tell me they did it. They just rescheduled my appointment as if head injuries are a joke. I got a call from the hospital the day before informing me my attorney cancelled my visit. When I brought it up, Mario very snidely reminded me "you can always go to the ER" and they fired me.

Brian never responded to my request which was put in over a week ago. I understand things may be busy and he cant take on more clients, that's fine but a response of "Thank you but I cannot take on more clients" or "I cant take your case for xx reasons" is a basic and I think reasonable request after seeking his services. I would not attempt to hire nor would I suggest anyone else attempt to hire Brian in the future as he is unresponsive to basic requests and seems to have no respect for the timeliness that matters of the court deserve.

Literally anywhere else with your money. Don't trust this man with anything of import in your life. I made that mistake and his failure to do his job in court and self-stated "tactical error" altered the course of my family's lives and those of four kids. We spent countless hours *ourselves* compiling and organizing evidence against the opposing party, which we dropped off to Derek's office on a flash drive with labeled files in labeled folders. Amanda (one of his paralegals) is so nice, helpful, and seems to be really good at her job. She prepared those files and made an annotated packet/spreadsheet thing for Derek to refer to during the hearing while, you know, *presenting* said evidence. Not that Derek capitalized on any of that in court...as literally none of it was presented, causing our entire case to be dismissed. Not to mention the absurd amount of money wasted. Of course, he then tries to blame it on the "high burden of proof, blah blah" which is irrelevant when you present no evidence to begin with. I saw that he just raised his rates, which is pure insanity because he wasn't worth what he was charging before. Likely needs it to cover the gaps from all the former clients he's suing (go ahead and look that up). Save yourself the money and grief and find anyone else. Hell, you'd probably get better results if you did some Google research, watched a couple episodes of Law & Order, and represented yourself.

Based on what I have read, it looks like I'm not the only one. Do NOT hire this attorney! After…read morebeing served by my ex with divorce papers and a protection order I was desperate to find help. I obviously did not do my research first! My ex cleaned out my accounts so I had no money to put down as a retainer, however, Mr. Van Gilder did accept my case and tell me that I could make payments...That's where everything went downhill and I quickly realized that I had made a huge mistake! Since I was served with a protection order, I wasn't allowed to have fire arms in my home. I told Mr. Van Gilder that I had a friend coming over THAT day to get my guns from me. He stated that "we have a large safe here in the office if you'd like to store them here." Since the protection order was about to go to court, I figured that it would look better on me if that was the case and the guns were with my lawyer. Fast forward to when the order was dropped, I emailed one of the ladies who worked there and told them I was going to stop by and pick up my guns. Come to find out, they were being held as "collateral." Once that happened, I realized that the law office of Mr. Van Gilder was only looking out for themselves and trying to make as much possible money as they could. To validate my assumption, I decided to look him up and discovered that he was given a letter of reprimand by the Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office in 2017 for assigning himself as a recipient to a mentally ill woman's trust (https://foiadocuments.uspto.gov/oed/0924_dis_2017-08-01.pdf). After my ex had filed for divorce, the law office sent a response and then they calculated how much my child support would be. And that is the extent of what they accomplished! I ended up communicating more with my ex's attorney just to get stuff accomplished! After giving Mr. Van Gilder $500, I shortly received a bill in the mail for $7300! Needless to say, I did not pay that and am now being sued by them. So, if you want a lawyer who is all about money and doesn't care what so ever about his clients, then this is the one for you...However, I'd suggest you look elsewhere for a more ethical lawyer who actually does something for his "hard earned money"
