Bait and Switch I…read moreasked to meet with an attorney for divorce. They charged me $400 and at the end told me that they would refer me but wouldn't take my case themself. I specifically wanted to meet an attorney I could hire. They did not give me any useful information. They are money grubbers. They only care about the dollar, not about the client.

If I could give zero stars I would. I hired Tarl Johnson to represent my son in his divorce case…read moreearly October 2024. Tarl Johnson of Brown Family Law is by far one of the worse attorney's I have ever worked with. Mr. Johnson was hired based off of his statement that he was a shark in the courtroom, he was a good communicator, does not waste clients' money, communicates every Friday with his client and has his paralegal text on Wednesday (for free). He has also stated that he has made respondents and judges cry with his questioning, and he would get everything that was rightfully due my son. Mr. Johnson started out strong but then proceeded to lack luster. He made statements on things that he was going to get handled without follow through. Stated things would be handled in court (community debt and fraudulent house purchase) and then did nothing to bring them up. Was the first to say he would draft the Rule 69 when the judge asked (this was so he could charge us over $3500 to write the order). He gave my son bad advice when it came to him continuing to pay his ex-wife's car insurance and cell phone. He advised him to sell the phone (can't do that while it is being financed) and to just take her off his car insurance (which most insurance companies won't do until proof of insurance for the vehicle has been shown). What attorney gives bad advice to a client? I have spoken to Mr. Johnson with assurances of filing for conferences, extension of dismissal (never done which led my son's case to be dismissed) and filing motion for trial. None of that was ever done. I had notified Mr. Johnson that my credit card had expired and to have his office please call me so I can give an updated one which they never did. My son would text the paralegal with questions with no responses to his questions. My son's case was not difficult, 50/50 parenting time, no child support (mind you she would be responsible paying my son child support as she makes more money), community debt, house division and attorney fees. This is pretty straight forward. I communicated with Mr. Johnson on February 19, 2025, to make the decision of continuing with him or retaining new counsel. I reminded him that the case was on the dismissal calendar for February 28, 2025, and he assured me things would be handled (he would file extension, request status conference and motion for trial) and nothing was done. The next thing that was done was mid-March AFTER I told Mr. Johnson I was no longer financing divorce. Second week of March I contacted Mr. Johnson that I would no longer be financing the divorce. $10,000 for temporary parenting time is what we received, and Mr. Johnson seemed very proud of that. This is all that was done in nine months. The opposing counsel was very unresponsive which did not help matters, but instead of filing motions to get this under control, Mr. Johnson did nothing. Allowed the dismissal to go without filing an extension. (which I told him I thought was opposing counsels plan all along). We have since hired new counsel and hopeful to get the dismissed case reversed and move forward to getting my son divorced and joint custody of his son. Steer clear of Mr. Johnson and Brown Family Attorney in Mesa.

I recently had a very troubling experience with this firm involving my case…read more My mother called the office and paid what she was told was a retainer for attorney Spencer Salcido before anyone from the firm had ever spoken to me. That same day, my mother texted the firm and clearly stated that I had not agreed to hire them, that any funds were to be held in trust pending my decision, and that I did not consider myself to have counsel yet. Despite that, the next morning Mr. Salcido/his firm filed an Appearance of Counsel and additional motions in my case. I had never spoken to him, never signed an appearance or retainer agreement (nor had my mother signed the retainer agreement), and I had consistently stated that I did not want several of the things that were requested in those motions. I only learned about all of this by logging into the court system and seeing filings made under my name. When I confronted the firm, Mr. Salcido agreed to withdraw after I made it clear I had never consented to representation. A staff member also told me, "we probably weren't going to be taking on your case anyway," which was especially frustrating given that they had already taken my mother's payment and filed documents with the court as if they represented me. This experience was extremely upsetting, especially because my case centers on issues of consent and police conduct, and I am a trauma survivor with Complex PTSD. Having an attorney I'd never met appear in my case and make strategic decisions (including things I had explicitly stated I did not want) without my knowledge or consent has seriously damaged my trust. I am sharing this so that other potential clients, especially those in vulnerable positions, are aware of how my intake and case were handled here and can make informed decisions about whether this is the right firm for them.

I would like to think my experience with law firms was not the norm. I found Salcido and in…read moreparticular my attorney in Sandy to be completely unhelpful,unwilling to respond to emails and apparently not willing to take any interest in my case beyond what was minimally acceptable. A very negative experience all around.
