I am extremely disappointed with the Helix Law Firm. Not because of their work but because of the…read moreway they conducted business with me and my mother. I went in with my 101 year old mother to verify that her living trust was current and up to date. During a meeting mother made an unsolicited comment about making some changes to her trust. That comment was resolved, and I informed Helix that my mother and I were leaving town for a couple of weeks. Before we returned, someone from Helix called my mother house to remind us about our appointment. Since we not home, I feel they should have just stopped the conversation because we were not home. However, it seems that some type of conversation was conducted. This conversation I suspect was from someone who on any other occasion would brag about how sharp my mother's memory is. So, from this conversation, Helix said they were not going to represent us with my mother's trust and that they were going to terminate the contract. We accepted their decision. So as I stated earlier, working with Nick was outstanding. It's just that a conversation about my and my mother's business affair should not have been discussed with someone other then ourselves.

I don't believe Freddie was honest with me…read more I spoke to Freddie about my commercial lease telling him I wanted the building reconveyed back to me because my ground lease had a clause the structure would be maintained. I told him my lease had an arbitration clause and that I wanted to go to arbitration because my lessee violated the clause for not keeping up condition of the property as it fell into a lot of disrepair. I forward my lease, letters and other documents. When I came for the meeting, Freddie and his litigator said I wouldn't win at arbitration because either all the repairs would be made before and the arbitration board wouldn't find in my favor for lack of maintenance as it isn't enough of a basis to justify reconveying the building back to me. Freddie said he has been doing law for over 30 years. I've been around hundreds of attorneys. Anyone practicing law for this long knows the answer to what I wanted at the time of initial contact. Freddie knew when I called I wouldn't be able to win at arbitration. But instead, he took my $5,000 deposit, charged hours of time from it, then disclosed to me what he already knew from the beginning when I came for the appointment. He could of just told me up front what he already knew. He returned $3,500.00 reducing his $2,000.00 original charge, but I think there was inducement fraud in my view. I emailed to justify my position, but Freddie didn't acknowledge my claims even when we spoke on the phone. I don't think he is honest or has good communication skills.

I informed them that I was interested in a free consultation to discuss my rights as a tenant and the issues I'm currently experiencing. I have yet to hear from them. Not a phone call, text or email.

I wouldn't know, as I haven't heard from them. First impressions are everything and your silence speaks volumes. I'll find a firm that wants my business.
