      Complaint Type:
      Sales and Advertising Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      1. On October 10, after spending 20 hours collecting and organizing data, I had a free consultation with the law firm. 2. During an hour long conversation in which I was told for between $1000-2500ish I could expect a demand letter and it would be reasonable to ask / settle for approximately $75,000ish. I made it clear, that cost was important and that I wasnt that interested in litigation.3. Based on the math presented, I thought it was reasonable investment, so I paid the retainer.4. When paying the retainer I was under the impression I had a strong case.5. Between paying the retainer in late November 2023, and February 1, 2024,I had zero communication with the firm. This is neither customary or reasonable. 6. On February, 13, almost 3 months later, I received a copy of a demand letter with numerous errors which do not justify the billable hours.7.When I have tried to resolve the issue directly with the firm, I have received no emails back. As a result I have filed complaints with this office and the ******* Bar.I can email more information along when the case is opened.
