Called to get some information regarding a possible lawsuit, understandably I have waited a great…read moredeal of time to seek counsel for this matter, however the woman I spoke with was beyond rude. Attorneys are known for terrible reputations and this woman is a prime example. Regardless of her personal issues, opinions of someone's intentions (maybe she would have a tiny bit of empathy if she had bothered to actually LISTEN instead of be a judgmental B****) but apparently her only concern is to treat potential clients as pond scum rather than take a moment to hear out the reasons behind the consultation. Seek ANY other attorney or firm if you would like to be heard BEFORE you are judged by someone who cannot be an actual judge. Pretty sure she is a law clerk or paralegal which makes her snappy rudeness even less attractive. Hopefully karma will visit her soon and be just as harsh with her as she was with me. You don't make enough $ in your job to talk to anyone in that manner. Time for a reality check.

And I could end this review there, but she was also attentive to every single detail in my case, making sure everything was done correctly and accurately, patient with me.. as this was a hard thing for me to go through, and she explained everything in a way that the layperson could understand.

The case lasted over a year and Peter helped us navigate through every twist and turn, all the way to trial.

I was in a car accident a few years back while on vacation in Maine (a careless driver ran me off…read morethe road). It could have been a lot worse, but I did suffer a minor neck injury. I decided to pursue legal action and was referred to Terry Garmey & Associates by my brother-in-law, a lawyer in my home state. Overall the experience was fine - their staff was pleasant and professional. They went over all the details with me and we discussed the likely outcome of the case. They advised me throughout the process and we worked together to assemble the required records and paperwork. After the paperwork was in though, things became a bit more sticky. I basically just stopped hearing from them for huge spans of time. They would tell me to expect a response within 2-3 or 4-6 weeks, only for 5, 6, 7, or even 8 months to go by without word. This happened on several occasions - I had to contact them proactively for every update on my case until the very end. I understand that since my case was smaller, it was probably not at all a priority for their office. That's fine, but I wish there had been better communication and at least some follow up or acknowledgement that projected deadlines had been missed. Ultimately, they got me what I considered to be a fair settlement so I don't want to be overly negative, but I do feel that the whole process should likely have taken months at most, not years.
