My wife and I went to Ford and Nichols for will/trust advice. We found this firm to be very…read moreun-professional and un responsive. We dealt with attorney Kris Frye. We met with Kris for our first consultation. We explained our needs and Mr. Frye said he would get back to us with a solution. After two week had passed and no communications with the Ford and Nichols law firm I decided to call them. Of course Mr. Frye was not available and I was told he would return my call. At the end of the day a lady named Abby called me from the Ford and Nichols firm. She had informed my that Mr. Frye had not done anything with our will/trust because he was so busy and would not be able to get to us for a few weeks. It was at that point we decided to fire Mr. Frye and the Ford and Nichols law firm. Mr Frye did not have the professionalism to let us know up front how busy he was and he did not show us the respect of calling us personally. He passed that on to a subordinate employee. I would not recommend the Ford and Nichols law firm for any legal assistance or for that matter any assistance. Maybe they only want the large money making accounts?

Bob Wilkinson "represented" me in my divorce, after my husband got my first (out-of-state) attorney…read morefired for failing to have my in-state attorney cosign all papers, as was legally required. Bob actually tried to talk me down from our initial agreement of in alimony from my husband, when I was not working and was recovering from a major illness that required 3 years of treatment and recovery, while my husband was working at ORNL and earning just under $200,000/year. I was incredulous that Bob's words as he took me aside were, "We have to leave him enough to live on." I insisted that he agree to the initially discussed offer of $500 more! I was going to be on COBRA to the tune of $700/month for just 3 years. He did not inform me that I was entitled to half of my husband's retirement for the duration of our 20 years of retirement. He signed our QDRO after reviewing it, and still did not inform me of this, despite the fact that my husband did not report that as one of our assets. I discovered this several years later, he insisted that he had never been my attorney of record, despite the fact that he had signed our final divorce decree as my divorce attorney. Bob was a horrible attorney who left me high and dry - he was the antithesis of an advocate, and I recommend him to no one. I am sincere as to the veracity of every statement I make here. I have not embellished or distorted a single statement in this review. I have spoken with at least 3 individuals related to me, who described serious mistakes; failures; or just plain ignorance on Bob's part in serving as their attorney. Of course, those are 3rd party reports and I cannot speak as to the truth of their statements, except to vouch for the good character of these people, and the fact that I've never found reason to mistrust them in the years that I have known them.

She tells you one thing in her office or on the phone and does the complete opposite in court. She also worked deals with the opposing council that does not benefit you at all. They prey on the weak spouse to line their pockets & "act" like they care but they don't care at all. All she wanted to do was make quick money while working deals on the side. You will NOT get true, caring lawyer in this firm. All lies and deceit. I honestly have no idea how they sleep at night and they are mothers.

The paperwork was not done correctly and required additional hearings which cost more money. There was little to no communication and no clear communication for sure. She could not even give us a statement of what had been paid and what hours she worked on our cases when we requested that. Her secretaries are incredibly rude, especially Ms. Willson. We have had multiple court dates and deadlines that we knew nothing about. Court times were changed with very little warning that caused a huge amount of upheaval for our family. Overall, the worst experience I have had with an attorney. I'm filing a complaint with the Bar Association this afternoon because I'm certain that she has not used all of our retainer. Horrible experience.
