Since day one, she guided me through a legal process that I never imagined going through and had no knowledge of the process or outcome. We communicated weekly and I knew she was making every effort in areas even beyond the norm. Once presented to the judge, she did not miss a point and displayed genuine support and care of my case. Her message and delivery was received to end the worst year of my life and to take next steps to move forward She continues to be available if I need her. I will forever be grateful.

I've worked with Evan Bruno before. He did me good. No complaints. This time, I was pretty sure I was cooked. To the point I had even broke the news to my family that I would probably have to go away for a while. I don't wanna make this about me not going to jail bc everything is relative...you know what you did or didn't do... That being said, this is about his conduct in total: professional and super informative. Upon first meeting and hearing how much he was going to charge, I may have threw up in my mouth a little but like they say; you get what you pay for. After doing more research and a consultation, I paid. He told me I was in good hands but I was still super apprehensive. He did not lie. From the little things like a day or two before every court date, getting an email letting me know where to be/what time/what was going to happen, to being presented all options, and being given his professional opinion...and personal if I'd ask. Showed up on time and ready to each and every court date. The one time he had to sub, he informed me prior. There were no surprises. I'm EXTREMELY satisfied with the outcome of my case and his conduct. I hope I never need this man again I promise but if ever you find yourself in a situation and need a lawyer you can count on, he did not disappoint...pay the man!

A few years ago. I had an incident that I needed law help with. As it happened, a few days before…read morethat. I had received one of Mr. Patels mailers and I thought okay. I'll take a chance on Mr. Patel. Big mistake. I called and the person that answered the phone was very rude. She told me that I had to make an appointment so I did. I had an appointment with a young man who was not Mr. Patel, but I assumed that he was a lawyer. Big mistake. He said that before he would do anything. I needed to give him $2000 and he would take care of it. Giving him that money was a huge mistake. Because after that he would not take my calls or return my calls. And as I remember it. The next time I saw him was at the courthouse. As we were going in to the courtroom. And I quote, "we are going to plead guilty because I (me)am a large white man with a bald head and there is no way that I would be found innocent because the plaintive was not. So after paying $1300 and In court costs and fines. I let it go for a while thinking about it (because I am a little bit afraid of attorneys). I decided I would let Mr. Patel know about this. When I would call he would not take my calls and would not see me when I drove by his office. I did leave my phone number with the receptionist and ask for Mr. Patel to call me. I did this many times. When I came into his office mind you, I knew he was in there because I could see him walking around. I know what he looks like and I was not there to start a big commotion. All I wanted to do was explain to him what happened. So I knew he was trying to avoid me. Now I know that $3300. It's not a lot to Mr. Patel. It's not one car payment on his Masarati or McLaren that he's driving this month or whatever it is that he's driving now. But it means a lot to me. I've had 2 heart surgeries. I've had cancer bouts twice and I've had over 20 other surgeries and I've been on SSDI for years. So that money meant a lot to me and he did nothing to earn it. I'd like to give him a zero. But a one is the lowest I can give. Now I just hope maybe this review can stop someone else from making the same mistake that I made.

I called the next morning and stated I had proof of the payment that came out of my account and I could email or fax the proof as I was working 70 hours and didn't have time to come into the office. Stevie stated she didn't care how many hours I worked and she didn't make any mistakes and that I had to personally bring in proof if I wanted her to even consider fixing it. I emailed & faxed as I couldn't get in the office she then sent me a letter saying I'm banned from Parkinson Law and they will charge me attorney fees as they see fit.

TLDR: Condescending man, couldn't be bothered with my inquiry. Just trying to get a consult fee…read morefrom me and wasn't interested in my needs. Especially if you're a woman, stay far away from this guy. I was referred to Meyer Capel law firm, and more specifically to Sam Limentato, from another lawyer. I wanted a post-nuptial agreement drawn up. I was informed via email that there is a $175 consultation fee. Totally fine, however, I had a few clarifying questions about if the fee is applied to the work and also the overall cost of drawing up a post-nup. I was then told by Sam that he could take a phone call (for free) to discuss. Great! However, then while on the phone, it was clear that he was unhappy and uncomfortable with taking the call. While on the call he appeared frustrated and annoyed with my questions, acted as if I had done something wrong for asking questions, and there was even a condescending and demeaning tone for most of the discussion. When I asked how much experience he has with drawing up pre/post-nups I was told with an air of superiority, "Let me put it this way. I was the presiding judge over all family law for several years." I'm not sure why he felt the need to then repeat this information at another point in the conversation, likely his own arrogance. Turns out he has only done about a dozen pre/post-nups, which he admitted on the call. He also felt the need to tell me twice that he did not need me as a client and he couldn't care either way if I moved forward with his services. Great way to draw in new business. He then chided me for asking clarifying questions about costs--questions anyone would have. The whole thing left me wondering why he offered me a phone call in the first place if he was so unwilling to participate. I didn't ask for a call, I asked a few clarifying questions and then he offered the call but then treated a potential client with disgust and derision. Needless to say, I did not move forward with his services. I would strongly encourage anyone to avoid this lawyer, especially if you're a woman.

For a matter of fact, he did so little, I had to get court dates rescheduled three times due to lack of care on his part. He even once told the judge he needed to reschedule because he did not have enough "time" to accurately look at my case before hand. I understand that he is also a public defender, however, I was a PAYING client, and still got nothing in return. I then spoke with another attorney afterwards, and he then proceeded to tell me about his record of being shitty in his work. Also told me I would have been better off standing alone than with him. I am just absolutely appalled in the lack of honesty and care this man will provide.
