*** UPDATE in response to the firm's comment below: ***…read more What prospective clients are reading below is a masterclass in clumsy damage control and textbook panic from a law firm caught completely flat-footed. Every single move they attempted below followed a predictable playbook line for line, complete with hilarious blunders: 1. The Manufactured Timeline Lie: The firm opens by claiming this is a "second review following our response to his first review." That is a demonstrable fabrication designed to manipulate perception. Both of my reviews were posted BEFORE I received so much as a private email from Marilyn, and long before this clumsy public reply. Inventing a fictional cause-and-effect to paint a paying client as an escalating aggressor is brazenly dishonest. 2. The Retainer Deception: Claiming I "sought to retain them again" is pure manipulation. They still held my active retainer in trust to enforce the very decree they drafted. I didn't hire them anew; they were already sitting on my cash. 3. The Pronoun Comedy: Multiple legal professionals cobbled together this response and couldn't even coordinate pronouns, clumsily flip-flopping between the corporate "We will not engage" and Marilyn's wounded "At no time did I advise" and "Ultimately I determined." You'd think lawyers could proofread basic grammar before lecturing the public. 4. "We Will Not Engage" (Followed by a 400-Word Manifesto). 5. The Sanitized "Termination": The response delicately claims, "Ultimately, I determined that I could no longer effectively represent him." What they conveniently omit is the sheer cowardice of how they did it: they dumped a high-stakes client via a Monday morning text message from an administrative assistant; the first business day after being caught pushing a reckless quitclaim deed on a $5.8M underwater note. 6. "Standing By" Incompetence: The firm closes with, "We stand by the representation provided." Let the public reflect on what you are actually standing by: you are publicly standing by steering a client to sign away property rights while remaining 100% personally liable on a $5.8M debt; you are standing by offering zero strategy for commercial guarantor exposure; and you are standing by abandoning a client via an administrative text message. When legal professionals proudly "stand by" that level of negligence in broad daylight, it isn't integrity; it is the breathtaking spectacle of a firm publicly endorsing its own incompetence. Prospective clients should take them at their word and run. *** UPDATE in response to the firm's comment below: *** If your Divorce involves high financial stakes, personal exposure, or complex lending, steer completely clear of Marilyn Brown / Moody Brown Law. I retained her while navigating a $5.8M commercial loan guarantee that is roughly $1.7M underwater. From day one, her representation was defined by dreadfully slow, evasive, and inefficient communication--dragging out simple issues and running up billable hours while offering zero strategic clarity. But the real danger wasn't just the wasted money; it was her shocking incompetence. Right up until the day before she dropped me, she was steering me to sign a quitclaim deed. I had to be the one to educate my own lawyer on basic real estate and banking reality: signing a quitclaim deed surrenders my title and ownership rights while leaving me 100% personally on the hook for millions in debt. At the same time, she flatly refused to address my questions regarding my rights, risk mitigation, and compensation as the guarantor carrying all the downside. The moment she realized I saw through her terrible advice and held her feet to the fire, she acted offended, played dumb, and abruptly terminated representation. I anticipate the firm's standard, sterile response to this review, so let me dismantle it right now: * Do not let her hide behind "client confidentiality" to avoid the facts. Privilege belongs to the client, and I am putting the facts on the table. She hides behind silence because her advice is indefensible. * Do not let her spin raw incompetence as "delivering hard truths." Handing away property rights while remaining personally liable on an underwater note isn't a "hard truth"--it is malpractice-level advice. * Do not let her claim she was merely "exploring options." That reckless quitclaim deed was the only strategy she put on the table. * Do not let her dress up cowardly abandonment as an "ethical duty to withdraw." She didn't withdraw over an "ethical breakdown in communication"--she panicked, cut, and ran the second she got caught giving disastrous advice to a client who knew better. When millions of dollars are on the line, you need a sharp, accountable advocate. Marilyn Brown burned my money, pushed a catastrophic strategy, and ran for the nearest hole the second she was exposed.

Richard Gale is a LION of an attorney. He represented a loved one of mine in a recent stressful…read morecase involving more than three felony charges with possible punishment of prison for life. Richard and my loved one achieved a NOT GUILTY charge for the three most egregious charges setting my loved one free (with probation). I also enjoyed that Richard really listened to my loved one and didn't try to push him into plea deals (as other attorneys had). He charged my family a reasonable price (honestly we should have paid him three times what he charged for the defense - and I really mean that). Richard is also a cheerful person as many attorneys are not.

I have never felt compelled to leave a review for an attorney based solely on an interaction in a…read morecourtroom... until today. During my son's court proceeding, this attorney and another defense attorney were sitting in the courtroom having a conversation loudly enough to be disruptive while my son's case was being heard. I politely asked them if they could please keep their voices down. They quieted down briefly, but the loud conversation started again. I politely asked a second time. Instead of simply acknowledging the request, this attorney Richard Gale, told me to move, in a manner I found unnecessarily rude and disrespectful. What bothered me most was the complete lack of professionalism and courtroom decorum. I was not yelling. I was not causing a scene. I made a simple, respectful request that two attorneys stop talking loudly while another person's case was being heard. The irony is hard to miss: had I, as a family member sitting in that courtroom, behaved the way these attorneys were behaving during one of their clients' cases, I have little doubt I would have been reprimanded or removed from the courtroom. Attorneys are held to a higher professional standard for a reason. People sitting in a courtroom are often experiencing one of the most stressful and serious moments of their lives. They deserve basic courtesy and respect and NOT to be treated as an inconvenience when they politely ask for the same consideration being expected of everyone else. This review is based solely on my firsthand experience with this attorney (Richard Gale) today. I cannot speak to his legal abilities or the outcomes of his cases. I can, however, speak to how he conducted himself in the courtroom and how he chose to treat me when I respectfully addressed a disruption. And based on that experience, I would not recommend him.

Randy Spencer was a huge help during a stressful time. Our insurance company wasn't willing to…read morecover us after an accident, and Randy stepped in quickly. He was very responsive, asked the right questions, and kept things moving. He sent a strong letter to the insurer with citations to Utah law and made it clear he was prepared to file a complaint. Almost immediately after that, the insurance company changed their position and covered us. Randy was efficient and mindful about keeping his billable hours down, and he genuinely focused on making sure we were treated fairly. I'm very grateful for his help and would recommend him without hesitation.

I don't write reviews lightly, but my experience with Fillmore Spencer was deeply disappointing…read more My wife and I cared for my grandfather in his home for over a decade. During a critical court case involving his situation, the firm failed to appear at the scheduled hearing. I had to call the attorney myself to ask where they were. When they finally arrived, they were completely unprepared. As a result of how the case was handled, my grandfather was ultimately forced to leave his home and move into a retirement facility, where he later passed away. Although Randy later took over the matter and refunded our payment, the damage had already been done. I also retained the firm for a separate criminal matter. I was advised to plead no contest and was told that after five years the record could simply be expunged. When the time came to pursue expungement, I was told they would contact the city prosecutor. Months passed with no updates. My emails went unanswered, and my calls were not returned. Eventually, the attorney handling my case left the firm and apparently did not transfer any meaningful information. Afterward, I was charged again to continue the expungement process, only to be told a week later that there was nothing they could do. No meaningful follow-up was made, and even a simple call to the prosecutor's office was declined. While they offered to refund the second charge, that does not compensate for the wasted time, lack of communication, or the consequences of the legal advice I was given regarding the plea. In both matters, I experienced poor communication, lack of preparation, and a failure to follow through. I cannot recommend this firm based on my experience.

I have been on the receiving end of Mr Burrows' "care" as he has served as my ex-wife's lawyer. I…read moredid not know that someone could be so callous and manipulative to someone they have never met. I was served divorce papers on my birthday to start with. The divorce decree was written in such a way as to completely punish and villify me, the father, in a no-fault divorce. Now I am trying to have the courts reexamine my child support amounts since my ex makes about 2.5 times as much as I do. Mr Burrows was again retained as counsel and has used such aggressive and unnecessary bully tactics that instead of helping manage & negotiate a peaceful divorce, he has made it incredibly adversarial and acrimonious.

There were multiple times when I would email them and hear back within minutes; even if they were just replying to let me know that they received my email and were working on the issue or finding the answer I needed. Great customer service! It took 2 months to finally get a court date and everything worked out wIth them, but the processes that were being held-up were not on their end. We met our Lawyer, Ryan about 15 minutes before court started, but that wasn't a problem because we had gotten any questions answered previously in emails by his assistants.

Before we hired Ron Wilkinson we read reviews and wondered if the poor reviews were credible since…read morethey seemed so different compared to the good reviews. Well, after experiencing Ron Wilkinson firsthand for ourselves, we can confirm the poor reviews about him are credible. When we had our consultation, Ron told us quote, "I can probably get this case resolved with one phone call." And he said that we would get the rest of our "retainer back to spend on Christmas." We understood it wasn't a guarantee but that it was a good probability he could get the case resolved with one promised phone call since that is what he told us. Ron never made that promised phone call. We emailed him and called the office countless times over the next 6 weeks. We did not receive replies to our emails or any callbacks. We finally scheduled a phone call in advance to speak with Ron, which costs almost $400 an hour. We asked Ron if he made that one phone call yet that he promised us. He seemed surprised we remembered him promising he would make this phone call and that he probably could get this case resolved on that one phone call and that we expected him to make that call. He said the individual he was going to call was hard to get a hold of. We did not believe he was telling us the truth. Another time opposing counsel sent us a very harassing email on a Thursday filled with lies and threatening sanctions (court fines) against us if we didn't reply by Monday. We called Ron's office, we emailed Ron and forwarded onto him the harassing email. Ron never called us back, never emailed us back. We made it clear this was an emergency and we heard nothing but crickets. We had to reply to the email ourselves and represent ourselves in order to get the email back to this other unprofessional attorney by Monday. It is almost impossible to communicate with Ron. He does not reply to emails or return phone calls. If you want to talk on the phone, you have to schedule a call weeks in advance for almost $400 an hour. But there are times when emergencies or situations arise that you need a relatively quick response. Then when you do get a rare chance to talk to him, it's very difficult to bring up your concerns to him as he gets easily triggered and he has a short temper. Ron even told us he gets easily triggered. We were scared to say anything to him. Ron often engages in manipulative gas-lighting techniques where he creates a false narrative and tries to place the blame for his irresponsible actions onto us and blame us for his bad actions. As one example he would accuse us of not listening when Ron is the one who was not listening to us. The ultimate betrayal was when Ron falsely told the court we agreed to things which we absolutely did NOT agree to. Ron or his office also engage in falsifying their bills. As one specific example we were charged $720 for witnesses being served subpoenas. However only 4 witnesses were subpoenaed at a cost of $18.50 each which would be a total of $74, not $720. When we point this out to both Ron and his office asking them what is going on with the billing, we again receive no response. We also had to do a lot of babysitting. We had to constantly call and email over and over and over to make sure things are getting done. For example, we called multiple times about correctly scheduling something. We were finally told there were about 5 dates to choose from and we would get a call back to get our permission to schedule the time and place. About a week goes by with no one calling us back. So we have to call into the office again. And we are told that the thing was scheduled without ever talking to us. And this thing was scheduled at a time we could NOT make and at a place we clearly did NOT agree to. So we have to spend more time and more money getting it rescheduled and fixed to the correct place. In short, instead of us being properly represented, there were multiple times we were misrepresented by our own counsel.
