Southeastern Law Group PA

Circling back for an update on my previous review. I stated that I ended up taking my case to a different law firm, who I felt was more equipped to handle my case. I’m leaving another review because when I first signed my contract with David, he stated that I could fire him or vice versa AT ANY TIME throughout my case at no charge. I ended up doing just that. BUT, my new attorney had to follow up with David for some documents on my case that I did not have and David ended up stating that he needed to be compensated for the progress and work that he made on my case. I found that to be very odd, as there was no progress on my case from the moment he took it up until the day I fired him as my attorney. Once my new attorney informed me of this, I contacted David’s office requesting the document I signed stating that we could fire one another at no cost and they acted like they had no idea what I was talking about. It was a lot of misrepresentation while I worked with David and a bunch of lies were told. Not to discredit his work but I was not pleased at all. My new attorney took my case, and got it settled within months and David demanded to be paid for absolutely nothing. He definitely left a bad taste in my mouth after dealing with him. Clearly just money hungry and wanted money for a case that he did no work on. Like I said, I would go months and months without hearing from him. I was always the one who initiated contact while he “worked” on my case. David took on my case in August 2022 and by the time I fired him in July 2023 we had gotten nowhere. It was like my new attorney had to start from scratch and STILL was able to get it settled less than 6 months. David had not sent out a demand letter or anything to that nature to the at fault party, but lied and said he did to my new attorney. When proof of that was requested, we never got anything. My new attorney even stated all David did was send choppy emails to the at fault party not really demanding anything. So what did I pay David a portion of my settlement for? Idk, definitely wouldn’t recommend for a personal injury case from a car accident. If you can, take your case to another law firm.

After I spoke with the people in this practice in the beginning, I thought I was in good hands. Until months and months went by and there was 0 communication and no progression in my case. I won’t go into too much detail but I wasted a whole year after getting in my accident with no progress. I would wait months after not hearing from them, finally give them a call and would be told the same thing I was told previously. I was more than patient with them due to the type of car accident I was in. They’re nice people but don’t take on someone’s case if you’re not equipped on how to fight for it. Me personally, I don’t think they would be the right pick if your case is complex and requires actual investigating and fighting for. But again, during my consultation he made it seem as if I was in such good hands. Once he took my case, he cane up with every excuse in the book as to why we weren’t making progress after going MONTHS without communicating with me.Thankfully I was able to find someone who was able to take my case and has made a complete difference in only a matter of weeks after taking my case. Thanks for nothing Southeastern Law!
