How to start this review.....haha I've got a story! A few years back my ex husband had some…read moretrouble with the law. BAD trouble. We hunted and researched our option of defense lawyers in our area and hands down decided on Monroe and King. I'm so happy we did. My ex husbands case had the literal best outcome it could have thanks to this duo! (And their entire team!!!) So, this year when I happened to get myself involved with an abusive manipulative man who put me in a bad situation I needed defense lawyers and I needed them fast. Obviously, no question I went with Monroe and King again! My wallet may not have liked it, but my butt NOT sitting in jail liked it more!! As with everything in life, good quality isn't cheap, and cheap quality you're ass is going to jail. ‍ I talk how it is, and that's how it is. This duo won't let you down. They will do everything in their power to help you. They are both kind and caring gentlemen. AND lawyers. That's saying something;) If you're deciding on lawyers, keep them at the top of your list. You won't be sorry. I'm not!!

Scott greeted me as though I had been a client for years not days. He reassured me he had already researched the case and found these problems. He presented the solution and delivered success! If you are in a bind and need a amazing team of attorneys?! These are the guys to see. 5 stars no doubt.

Unless hell has frozen over you should avoid them at all costs.

I would call her, leave her messages at the office, but she would only respond when the ones who hired her gave her the go ahead to resume contact with me. On meeting with her, she would put words in my mouth and not really be following what I was saying since English is her second language as she migrated to the USA from Russia. Finally, there was not a rapport or trust that should be present with a client/counsel since I didn't find her trustworthy or knowledgeable with only 2 years experience under her belt. I found her to be lazy and slow with requests. Long story short, she was terminated and I am looking for competent representation.

The worst legal representation on the planet…read more I hired Nick James to represent me in a divorce and it could not have been worse. First, let me say Nick James is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He's a large, friendly guy with an endearing personality. He would make a wonderful friend. Unfortunately ... he is an unfocused lawyer. My divorce lasted two years with endless court appearances and pleadings. He lost 100% of the time. How is it possible to lose 100% of the time? At the final proceeding the judge and opposing counsel laughed at him and asked if he wanted to object to anything being presented ... he was clueless as to what was going on... I knew with certainty, I had lost the case ... this was after I paid him $16,000.00! The staff of Hunt, Green & James act like a collection agency threatening with endless emails and phone calls... then they bombard you with football, Christmas, IRS, holiday "specials" where if you pay your bill within the next few hours you can get the amount slashed in half. It's like working with people at a used car lot. The women are simply rude. Arrangements are freely made concerning payments and time frames but no one seems to remember them. Please understand my divorce was extremely difficult due to my relationship issues and your experience may be different. It certainly couldn't be worse. The final blow was after paying $16,000 ... I was asked to pay an additional $6,000 retainer for Nick James' services for an appeal. An appeal he said he would lose with a 70% guarantee ... I gave up! Today, I received an additional bill for $11,450.00 for services rendered. What services? What did this law firm ever do effectively to represent me or justify additional funds? Please! The only defense for 100% failure in my case was as Nick James continuously remarked "The judge hates you". OK... I got it ... the judge hated me ... I hate people too... but if hate is the primary problem bring in the team of expert legal professionals at Hunt, Green and James and devise a strategy to make me look better to the judge or have the case moved ... (remember OJ Simpson?) ... it did not happen. Not once did he present any assistance to aid in my case. In his defense, he was able to have my clothes returned to me. However, it took him 2 years and a credit on my account of $1,000.00 for the inconvenience he had allowed to continue. Of course I had to drive to downtown Jacksonville and get them from opposing counsels storage room. I take full responsibility for part of my legal issues. My divorce came at a transitional time in my life and I put 100% faith in Nick James to represent me fairly and negotiate a fair settlement. He did not. I could never personally recommend this firm based on my experiences. Your experience will hopefully be better. Read the reviews and act accordingly... never base your choice of legal advisers on a website. I realize that too late!

If you are ever in need of legal help he definitely is the one lawyer that you can trust. Thank you Scott for always being here to support me and my family. You are very much appreciated. You are the TRUE definition of a GREAT lawyer. #THEGOAT

When I contacted John M. Phillips Law Office and listen to Mr. Phillips phone message stating "How important is for him and his office to made justice , that he put people first and made justice and caring for the people its more important to him that money " I get emotional , finally I get someone that really care and will be able to help me to get justice and some compensation for all my pain , suffering and damages . I know that dental malpractice claim don't get a lot of money and that is why his messages was impacting to me. I think that was exactly what I am looking for !!. What a disappointed surprise when I had the opportunity to talk with the attorney William Walker from Mr. John M Phillips and he share with me that they even my case could have merit and qualify to file a claim they will no accept my legal representation because if not enough MONEY due to the limitations on the Florida Law. Mr. Walker was very nice and professional , he demonstrated empathy to my situation and I truly appreciated the time his and Mr. Phillips staff dedicated to me , but I realized that at the end Money talk. I am very sad . All my hopes are over.

To whom it may concern,…read more I am writing this review after having the pleasure of Mr. Cobbin representing me in two civil cases. I came to Mr. Cobbin late in the first civil case with a hearing scheduled within three days. He immediately went over the case, made calls to necessary individuals and court representatives. He stayed in close communication with me and appraised me of any changes or issues that arose. At the hearing he met with the plaintiff and then with me. He instructed me to be completely honest when queried by the Judge (i.e., going over likely dialogue scenarios). He assured me that everything would work out as he had intimated. He stated the ruling will most likely be one of two scenarios. Once the Judge ruled it was for the favorable scenario number two as he foretold. He did not stop at that point; as he still pursed various and sundry court filings that assisted in the true closing and dismissal of the case ex post facto. In the second case (dissolution of marriage) I served as the respondent. Mr. Cobbin picked this case up in media res as both parties were pro se litigants initially. Prior to that he had informally guided me on filings while I was pro se prior to me hiring him to take the case. His hiring was a fortuitus decision as the case, due to my counterpetition, became exponentially more difficult and complex. Mr. Cobbin would make it standard practice to meet with me periodically to go over case information/developments, strategize, and map out the direction we would move to bring the case to a final resolution. From initially taking on the case to the successful mediation it was apparent that Mr. Cobbin is an elite attorney practicing in Jacksonville. In both cases, he was open to my ideas and feedback. In summary, Mr. Cobbin possess a unique mixture of professionalism, knowledge, dedication, and a caring attitude. From the very first consultation, Kevin Cobbin made me feel heard, respected, and confident about my case. He explained every step in clear concise terms, kept me updated, and always responded quickly to my questions. His professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for my situation made a stressful process so much easier. Thanks to his superior expertise, we achieved a better outcome than I ever expected. I highly recommend the practice of Kevin M. Cobbin Attorney at Law, P. L. to anyone in need of a dedicated and compassionate lawyer.
