In January of 2022 my mother agreed to let Chad Anderson Law Firm represent her for her Bankruptcy…read morebecause of medical bills she could no longer pay. My mother had once before filed Bankruptcy and I did not want my mother to go thru this alone, so I offered to help her find a good lawyer. When I looked up Chad Anderson on a list of bankruptcy lawyers recommended in Bismarck ND. Chad was at the top of the list with a 5 star review. Little did I know he probably wrote a review on himself to get those stars or a had a close aquaintenance do it. My mother had gone thru a Bankruptcy 7 years ago and it was very hard to do and she had told him that up front during our free consultation which was over the phone. After the conversation with Chad, my mother and myself Lisa we all agreed he would represent my mother. He told us he would start the process and needed my mother to sign some papers. So a few days went by and mother had not heard from him so she had me call him and find out why he hadn't sent us anything or called. So I called him and got his answering service " we talked to his answering service more than himself." She stated that he was out sick and not sure he would be in the office he had told everyone that he had Covid - 19 or flue and he would not be able to come into the office. By the end of the week and about the time for me and my husband to go back home which was out of state I contacted his office again and this time she tracked him down and I asked him again are you ok to take on this Bankruptcy he said he was getting better but I told him I wanted to get this Bankruptcy started before we left for MN so he sent me paper work thru my email that mother and I looked at and we went to his office which only his front desk secretary was at and my mother and I met with her and she explained what we needed to do. So I read my mother who is 82 the paperwork and she signed the documents authorizing him to pull Credit Reports and etc. My mother also gave him 600 for a retainer fee and told her his secretary that we would give him the rest of the money when the Bankruptcy papers were signed by all parties. In his papers he wanted all the money before he filed. He charged my mother 600 for retainer, 300 for the state processing fee and the rest for his work 1,500 all together 2,100 which my mother and I thought was high but he came highly recommended by google and now it was to late to cancel I wanted to help get this done for my mother before we went back to MN. I remember telling me telling my Mother before I left Mother you do not have to worry Chad will take care of this for you and I am only a phone call away. So Chad sent over a link to the credit counseling that mother was suppose to complete before she could file I read the questions over the phone to my mother and she answered them. I then submitted them to Chad by email. He never called to tell us that he received the test I always had to follow up with him and he was never able to be reached except when he was to meet Mom for the remaining money and sign the paperwork. 2 weeks later this finally happened my mother met him on March 1st and gave him the rest of money in a cashiers check and then she got a call on Friday March 5th from Chad expecting it to be done and instead she got the worst news she could imagine that she had to wait one more year to file Bankruptcy and on top of that when she asked for her money back he said he would not give her 2,100 back and that he would keep it for her next year when she could file. Mean time my mother was in tears and she said what about all the Creditors that have been calling for two months and demanding payments now for sure her credit was ruined. Last time I had checked my mothers credit she had a 620. She just didn't want to leave her children with her bills if and when she died. I do not plan on taking this likely how he treated my mother of 82 and taking her money and not doing his do diligence telling her up front that she could not file Bankruptcy. If this does not give you a good enough reason not to use Chad Anderson Law Firm Bismarck ND than I don't know what will. Lisa daughter of Lila B.

Chad Anderson is the worst attorney in North Dakota. He has no clue how to present a case. He is…read moreclueless. He is also dishonest. He lies to you and his superiors to cover his rear end. When he was with Larson Latham and Huttle they had dishonesty throughout the company. It was their common practice to lie to clients and to each other. Chad Anderson has been voted worst attorney in North Dakota for 2 years in a row. Don't use this liar you will regret it
