One-Star Review

The only negative review comes from Gayle Jenkins, who rates the firm 1 star. She states that Mr. Schweitzer handed off her case to a junior attorney, Brooke Mulligan, who was incompetent. Gayle claims that Brooke made multiple major mistakes and argued with her twice. She also accuses Brooke and Don of not responding to her concerns and continuing to bill her despite the incompetence.

Yuko Sano also mentions that the firm answers questions quickly and is compassionate, but Natalia criticizes them for charging for every email, regardless of length.
