They were easily available to assist me anytime I reached out to them. They made sure I understood everything though the process and answered my many, many questions :) They also caught errors from the other parties lawyer that could have impacted me greatly! So I am very thankful to them for all their help, and whole heartedly recommend Sheri should you ever need assistance with any legal matter. Thank you to Sheri, her team and all the staff at RDM.

We recently dealt with Doug Lester and his assistant MaryAnn. It was an ICBC case for my elderly…read moreparents. Doug was amazing. It was a hard case, stressful and full of surprises. Doug did everything to explain things, gave his honest opinion as to what he felt should be done, but left avenues open that could also be followed. He was professional, courteous, but most of all informative. Sometimes he is very focused and you wonder what he is thinking. Well, don't worry, he is right on top of everything and a step ahead of everyone! ICBC did not stand a chance. Thanks Doug, MaryAnn and others that helped. Diane, Rick, Ron and Marguerite.

Hired Dhanu Law for something I was falsely accused of. I was told $10,000 a day for court which I…read morepaid the total up front. Though court was diverted, I have this charge hanging over my head with a "stay of proceedings" which hangs for 12 months and affects my work. The law kept all of my money claiming it was a "fixed cost". My final invoice, which had no breakdown of costs, also stated they had discussions with witnesses. I ask both my witnesses if they were subpoenaed for court and/or contacted by my counsel? They both said no and no! So if you use Dhanu Dhaliwal firm and they tell you it costs $$$$$ to represent you, consider all of that money gone once you hand it over!

Read ALL OF THE LOW REVIEWS FIRST FOR A GENERAL THEME. ALSO, note that many of the great reviews…read moreare from people who were vulnerable, unseen, or full out wanted a war with the other party. I SHOULD HAVE READ ALL THE REVIEWS FIRST. (I also hope that The Valley Law Group doesn't DELETE this and spares me the "I'm sorry you were not happy..." spiel. The info below is just my own real world advice and experience. I was charged even before I replied to the first formal request from the attorney. The free initial consult was with someone who was not even a paralegal. While he was very professional - BEWARE the info you send to this initial contact will be used to "proactively" start running up a huge bill. This is the word of Attny Corey Keith (witnessed by Elda) when I asked why I was charged a $150 paralegal fee after just speaking to the actual attorney for the first time. The attorney asked me to send her specific info (purportedly different from the "free" consult list of info request), and at that point, I decided to simply end the process and see if I would be charged only the attorney fee. NO. I was actually charged for "proactive work" done by the paralegal which was largely from text with my data entered that I shared during the "free consult". So even the consult led to a charge of $150. Unfortunately, my worry that the approach to walk me up to a high bill was realized. But not before I recognized the approach. I spoke directly with Corey Keith to request to end the relationship and get my $4229 deposit back minus the time with the attorney. I was charged an additional $150 as noted above. They held to this tightly and noted that they could not refund my funds to my credit card and reserved up to 30 days (likely in an interest baring account). I was told that they would make a request to expedite my check in the mail. It's been 2 weeks and 4 days and no check. They did honor my request to at least get the $150 worth of text in the form filled document (where they appear to have deleted and highlighted in areas) then sent in a pdf format (which is readily reverted back to word). It is so hard to trust many anyways. Family court issues are already a challenge and I simply cared to have a peaceful establishment of joint custody. The world needs drama because drama costs MORE money. Other law firms offered to charge less in an amicable agreement to simply file the paperwork and assist me. They even said you don't need to pay for the person to "serve" the other parent if you were on great terms and could simply use a notary! Valley Law Group told me the charge to serve would be between $150-300 depending on the city/state! Do your research. Peace is cheap. War is expensive. Take a word of advice. Look for people who match your energy with the other parent. If you want a war, Be prepared to lose the money to put their kids through school that you could use to put YOUR OWN child through school. Still pending my refund. Oh, and you could have refunded it back to my card as requested. I guess it's an interest free cash withdrawal from my credit card they way they did it. Hmmmm. Wonder how my credit card company feels? Valley Law Group Phoenix - please better prepare your potential clients for this after the "free" consultation with a non legal professional. Also warning to potential vulnerable parents, don't send any info UNTIL AFTER YOU SPEAK TO THE REAL ATTORNEY to avoid proactive expenses which don't seem legal. AND DONT SEND MONEY TOO EARLY, you'll never be in control of your cash.
