Really didn't want to write this because it makes me mad to think of how badly Carl took advantage…read moreof me. Look at Ashley's review here. I had a similar experience. Carl is so unorganized it is pathetic. I made the mistake of not going into his office and paying the retainer after our phone conversation. Just visit his office. There is more alcohol on the wall behind his desk chair than I have consumed in my life. He has a huge dog in the office because he is probably scared of someone coming after him after he steals their money. Look out for the kitty litter box in his bathroom. For $3,500 he filed 2 forms. You have been warned. If you still hire this guy after reading this and the other bad reviews, you only have yourself to blame. I think there are a few phony good reviews for him on here. The night before our court date I decided to call to ask about where good parking was for the hearing. Then he tells me he is so glad I called. He told I was suppose to come to his office and we are going to do a video conference for the hearing. If I didn't call about parking I would have been in court by myself. My ex-wife's lawyers were present in court, they made the effort. Carl did not dispute anything that my children's mom's lawyers stated. Carl had a conversation with the opposing counsel without me and they went to school together, so I am imagining he might have done them a favor and threw me under the bus. He did in court try to make my children's mom look bad by making something up, or perhaps he remembered it wrong, either way it was not right. Just a nightmare having this guy represent me. I went back to court for a child support readjustment and did twice as good as he did with the outcome. Using the Law Facilitators at the court house was way better then hiring this guy.

Instead, he gave me all the time I needed to fully understand the process, ask questions, and feel comfortable moving forward. Everything was explained clearly and straightforwardly, including the timeline, expectations, and guidelines I needed to follow. His fees were fair and competitive, and he also helped ensure I did not spend more money than necessary on required courses and related expenses.

I was out thousands, a lot of it, in my opinion unnecessary charges. If you decide to move forward with Mr. Miller I wish you the best of luck." That pretty much sums up my opinion. Make sure you are a good fit, if you feel reluctant ... run because it will be his way. He can not adapt to a client's needs and cannot translate phases of the process into actual document numbers, names and due dates. Then he will blame you. He states he is "direct", my translation of this is "unprofessional": arrogant, condescending, and rude. Of course he would disagree.

David instructed us to contact the Gongre's office (local for our area) cause they will help more. He never hesitates to answer any phone calls or emails at all. He always gets back to you with a time frame. Keep you informed of the work all the time. It was a very nice experience working with such a great immigration attorney in the area.

Our case got a little complicated/prolonged because of the covid pandemic, but we were so thankful we had David as our attorney.

With so much paper work and such great detail, we're glad we worked with a professional to make sure we did not miss anything. David is extremely detail oriented and made sure we had all required documents submitted. Because of the pandemic, it did take a little longer than usual to process, but David checked in and reassured us that everything was being processed. Eventually we got our interview and we were so happy to have him with us at the interview to calm our nerves! Everything went great and so smooth! Overall, It was a great experience and I definitely recommend working with David Semaan!

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.
