I Wish I Had Read The Reviews
On February 4, 2019 I pretty much lost my life. Definitely anything of value that I had earned up to that point was either gone or on the verge of being gone due to a stabbing at my business. I used reviews to find a good attorney and it seemed Jeff Reich
was the one. After I retained him strangely that very night or the next I ran into him and I guess a couple of his friends at a local restaurant and he met my wife and our five kids, even my mother and I thought at that point wow I’ve got the best guy because he sees I’m just a regular guy with 5 small kids. I could not have been more mistaken if I had tried! And as I sit here having just looked up his reviews again I cannot say how stupid I feel for missing some of the bad reviews that were already out there. I think I need an attorney so bad and I was stressed out I missed those very obvious already existing bad reviews. One reviewer mentioned he took the food out of her children’s mouthes, and that must be a true review because similarly Jeff told me today “what do you think I’m going to feed your five kids?” No Jeff. I just hoped you were a decent man. Without getting too much into how nasty the last two years has been including he and his staff lying to me. Multiple different lies but the one that hurt the most was a lie that he could get me a loan to help out with my business that turned out to be completely false. I also got a terrible taste of how shady people can be when he had me sit on a long phone call three-way with Stanford university where his assistant was trying to get me in but she was lying through her teeth to do it and win the Stanford person would ask me questions I told the truth and so we couldn’t get in. Did you guys really expect me to lie? Evidently you did. So my review would match several of the other reviews out there but unfortunately mind I feel took a real dark turn recently. All of a sudden out of the clear blue sky Jeff fires me. Gives me a couple different reasons that don’t make sense as to why he’s firing me. And then I find out I’m getting kicked out of my business because since he fired me and the other side of the lawsuit we are involved with now sees that I have no attorney they are attacking me. He has spoken highly of one of the attorneys on the other side‘s team and referred to him as hey friend. One really have to wonder just how good of a friend when I get kicked out without enough time to do anything about it. So what part of my life didn’t get wrecked on February 4, 2019 my attorney that I trusted with my life just decided to wreck the rest of my life. And when I tried to nicely speak to him today and show him the new paperwork I received he only made ugly comments such as I don’t do pro bono and what do you think I’m going to feed your five kids? So yes people I sincerely hope you do better than I did when looking at the reviews out there on attorneys. I cannot tell you how ignorant I feel sitting here seeing reviews that are saying basically what I said but those reviews were written five years ago! It seems the five star reviews with no comments are probably just friends of the staff or Jeff himself. Because the reviews with statements are all negative. And although I can’t comment on other peoples experiences I can say that the events that began my downfall were bad enough but it was what my own attorney has done or didn’t do that has really destroyed me. Furthermore I would be careful of hiring the other people in his office because they all review each other’s cases and so clearly those two other attorneys had an influence on what Jeff has done to me. Otherwise I don’t know why Jeff regularly said he had to consult with the other two attorneys. So please folks really take time when you study the reviews and don’t do like I did and hire an attorney to fast because you’re scared or stressed out like I was. Because I really wouldn’t wish my worst enemy to have happen to them what has happened with me while Jeff was representing me.
