My experience with THE LOBB LAW FIRM…read more
Id give them zero stars if I could. I was referred to The Lobb Firm by another attorney, so I did not do any research before signing their contract. THAT WAS MY MISTAKE.
However, now knowing what I know about this office, I certainly can NOT recommend them to anyone (specifically Daniel Groves) . Mr Lobb and Cheryl Lobb were quite nice and seemed skilled in the legal arena, so I agreed to hire them. Cheryl informed me that they have skilled attorneys in their office and that all of them were qualified to handle my case. After being passed around a couple times, I was eventually assigned long term to Daniel Groves.
Initially Mr. Groves was pleasant and professional enough, but as the months of legal process went on, words cannot express my building frustration with this man (and half of his staff.) The more I asked for answers and explanations, the more indignant he became with me. He and I had multiple discussions about my concerns with how my case was being handled to no avail. Then, about one week before our court date, he ended up quitting my case. YES!, he actually dropped my case a week before our court date. (AND also note: THEY STILL GET PAID if you win, EVEN IF THEY QUIT/DROP YOUR CASE! )
I believe he quit because he didn't want to (or did not know how to) justify the expected outcome of my case.
Mr Groves made it clear that he didn't like that I was asking questions about the process and/or his work. He called this " micro managing". However, I called it looking after my own interest.
In addition, After he gave notice of quitting, but before the judge actually released him from the case, we still both had to go to court in a client/lawyer relationship. At that time, he was rude to me in the court room and also in the court house lobby. I was shocked any attorney would behave this way.
Note: My concerns about Mr Grove were also addressed to Cheryl Lobb and Mr. Lobb, "during" the course of my legal process. However, the concerns were not resolved at those intervals. Unfortunately, because these legal matters involve multiple years, I felt I was too far along in the process to try to leave the Lobb firm and find a new lawyer. Therefore, I felt I had to finish what I started with them.
BOTTOM LINE: I am done with them now, and I believe my cases were poorly handle. Because of my personal experience with this office, I can NOT offer any recommendation to use their services.
Reminder: If you are considering hiring a lawyer (or any service provider), do your research and checks references BEFORE you sign a contract with anyone. Don't get stuck, like I did.
