This place is GREAT! I'm dealing with a complex situation involving a creditor and collection…read moreagency basically trying to screw me over, and am far from being able to afford a regular lawyer, so I called up CLG. Despite the fact that I called at 5:00, they were able to fit me in by 7:40 the same evening (WOW!) Once I arrived I was asked to fill out a short form (most of which had already been prepared by the woman I spoke to on the phone with all the information she had asked (a nice surprise as it cut the time it took to fill out in less than half). By the time I filled out the form I hardly even had a minute to peruse the giant fall of VERY informative brochures they have on everything from creating roommate agreements to dealing with traffic tickets, and any number of useful bits of information. I grabbed two that looked interesting, went to sit down to read them, and just started to open the first one, and I was already being called in (where else do you spend that little time in the waiting room?) I was seen by a lovely young lady who was very friendly and understanding of my problems. She admitted right off the bet that debt and collections are not her specialty (but come on, from a place that gives free legal advice, obviously you're not getting a specialist in the field). However, what she DID do was give me a phone list with the numbers of two free lawyer-by-phone services, one of which specializes in this field and one of which has various lawyers in various disciplines on call at all times to answer questions. She also included a number for a government operated credit counseling service that she said would have information on good ways to start rebuilding my credit rating after this whole ordeal. Furthermore, I was given the names of two government documents to look up that related to my problem, to give me some more information on how to proceed (apparently their internet wasn't working that evening, so she couldn't pull them up herself). All things considered, given the limitations (no internet, no actual specializing personel on site) I got a wealth of useful information in a matter of minutes, and all FOR FREE... how often does that happen? Now, I should mention that this service is limited to people in what they consider a low income bracket. They won't disclose what the cut off is, but when you call they will ask you a few questions about your income, marital status, number of dependants, etc. and if you qualify they'll book you in for an apointment. If you have a legal issue you don't know what to do about, and can't afford a lawyer, I can't recommend this service enough. (On a side note, they also offer regular free legal clinics. I've never been to one so I can't speak to their usefulness, but it may be worth checking out.)

Seth Wheeldon initially agreed to help me with a police brutality/injury case, but after a full…read moreyear of communication, with no explanation, he said "you sound lovely, but I can't help you." Now I'm left desperately searching for representation. Throughout that year, I was under the impression that Seth was taking my situation seriously. We spoke several times by phone whenever I had questions, and he told me that while a conviction is helpful, it was not required for civil action. One year after my first contact, I left a message with an update. A week later he called me back and said, "you sound lovely, but I can't help you." I was not given an explanation, despite previously being told my case was viable. Had he declined at the beginning, I would have had far more time to find another lawyer. It is extremely difficult to find anyone willing to take on cases involving police misconduct, and the wasted year has made this even harder. I originally removed my first review because I felt embarrassed mentioning that I am a victim of police brutality. However, I now believe it is important for others to know my experience before choosing this firm. After I left the original review, Raj Bhogal contacted me. At first he spoke in a way that made me feel heard and important, then told me that although he would never tell me to remove my review, he was worried that my review might prevent someone from finding a law firm that "truly cares." This comment also made me feel pressured to delete it. Raj said the trial date was too close to the deadline to sue. I later learned that lawyers can still file and get extensions for such civil cases. I did not know I needed a retainer, and I was never told this during the year of communication. I have emails and phone records documenting our communications. In the end, I was left without support and a clear reason. I hope my experience helps others make an informed decision.
