While we are fighting the daughter and kids are living in a black molded apartment. Justin.says he will get back. As he has to make sure they haven't represented any other client. I understand that. Where is the return call from weeks ago? I am wondering if it is discrimination. They don't think we have money??? But I do know it is probably political. Because who owned the property first

We retained Tara for an international family law case. Of over twenty attorneys that we consulted…read morewith, Tara was the one who made us feel comfortable. She asked us a lot of questions. Many of the other attorneys we talked to did not. Dealing with the family court is extremely stressful. Tara was never overly emotional regarding our case (I wouldn't want a lawyer that was) but we could tell that she cared about the outcome. She is honest and doesn't promise things she cannot deliver. Some lawyers may tell you what you want to hear. Tara tells you the truth. And she works hard to get you the best outcome within the framework of a system that is often times outdated! I'm happy we retained her to represent us and I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

He was a traveling Superintendent in the construction field. We chose Hope Law firm because we connected with Attorney Andrew Portis. He was a fighter and very much for his client. The work comp was denied from the start because Koester Construction lied about the injury to work comp. Straight up LIED! ( later this was proven at deposition) Andrew Portis was fierce and gave excellent representation! Then two days before deposition my husband was notified that Andrew Portis was no longer with Hope Law Firm. Our new representation would be Ryan Muldoon . WORST EXPERIENCE EVER IN OUR ENTIRE LIFE! Ryan was not interested in what happened. Didn't review the records obviously. Didn't communicate at all until the day of deposition! REPRESENTATION WAS POOR!!! My husband presented and defended himself! This case carried on for over a year with nothing happening! Hope Law firm NEVER GOT MY HUSBAND MEDICAL CARE! HOPE LAW NEVER GOT MY HUSBAND WORK COMP $$$! HOPE LAW FIRM IS THE OPPOSITE OF HOPE! The case finally went to mediation giving my husband short notice! Ryan Muldoon failed to prepare! In fact Ryan advised my husband to settle with their first offer of $50k My husband sad NO! At mediation, if you can call it that! Work comp offered $60k my husband again said NO. Ryan Muldoon tried get my husband to take the lowball settlement at every offer! During mediation the attorney, Ryan Muldoon barely spoke! MY HUSBAND NEGOTIATED EVERYTHING! MEDIATION LAST AROUND 4 HOURS I BELIEVE. MY HUSBAND GOT THE OFFER UP TO $120k !!!! No thanks to his attorney at all!! HOPE LAW FIRM SHOULD BE THANKING US FOR THE $40k FREE MONEY THEY GOT FOR DOING NOTHING!!! NEVER USE HOPE LAW FOR ANYTHING ESPECIALLY WORKERS COMP!

Appeared afraid to ruffle anyone's feathers, such as Judge, opposing attorney, or senior partners within the firm. was not aggressive by any means. Depositions instigated by my lawyer ended up a complete waste of time, and certainly money - yet my lawyer claimed she needed it to prepare for trial - then later did everything possible to prevent me from going to trial. Poor return communication, yet expected quick responses from me. Make sure you have about twice as much money to waste, than what they tell you they think it will cost early on. Highly inequitable results. A terrible experience.
