They don’t work with you’re baby the way they suppose to . They don’t help with feedings or any of the sort . Medically they are good but they aren’t good for having a nicu babyJetya Wilson

Word of advice: try and transfer out of this ghetto school as soon as possible. It'll save you the headache. TAKE ONLINE CLASSES! That way, you will not have to deal with their crap. The only good thing you'll find about this school is the cheap tuition, some good professors if you can find the right ones. So far, I managed to have good ones. And a few nice students along the way. But the unprofessional, unorganized with the admins, staff, etc is a nightmare. I'm speaking from experience with the financial aid and trying to sign up for classes. They act like they don't know what they're doing. Not to mention, you try to be friendly and they give you attitude like you did something wrong. Plus, the staff and admins are incredibly immature and straight up bullies. When you ask for help, they will act irritated, rude or expect you to it yourself. You know that you are going to be around students all day long, and if that is something you cannot handle or deliver civil professionalism, then why are you working here to begin with? Oh yeah, because they just hire anybody, and just hungry for a paycheck. Oh and also, people just tell you different answers or just straight up lie to you. If I had the choice, I would not spend another semester here for another minute. They really need to do something about this ghetto, unprofessional, unorganized, low class school and hire better admins, staff, etc too. I'll be so glad when I'm able to leave this school because I will not miss it. I'm sticking to my statement that Virginia schools are better. Also, another thing to add is that the advisers do not know how to do their jobs! They are just there for the title, so know what YOU want and YOUR plan, because these advisers will just tell you anything. In addition, they will act so conceited to make you look stupid. That's why I'm going with my own plan, and I can't wait to leave this school in the spring of 2018. It has been nothing but very poor. They just want your money. This school is nothing but a joke. If I could give this school a zero, I would in a heartbeat.Jazmin M

I hated this college including all staffs, administration and president of this college I had many issues with back when I was attending this college. Yes, I graduated in 2004, made very high grades and achieve my goals, but the President of this college did nothing about my situation. She failed to do her job claiming that she will not bar a student for harassing me. She is very lucky I did not sue her before I graduated. Other people has complained about allowing non-visitors attending to this school for no reason. This brings a major concern about safety. I would advise no one attend to this school. It sure has very poor administration. I do not care what that president said, she is a very poor administrator. I am glad I am moving out of this state and I will be a excellent administrator this president of this college. We need to hire new administrators in this college and make changes in this college and other schools. I will do way better than this sorry loser president of this GHETTO and dysfunctional college.Joy Timmons

I wonder why there are so many bad reviews about this school. It's not as bad as I thought or as I read. Yes, I did have a bad impression at first because I was supposed to take four courses, now I'm taking three because of their carelessness. But that's the only problem I've encountered here. My professors are good. I read bad reviews about the financial aid also but there was no problem with my financial aid and everything went smoothly. Overall, this school is not so bad. I'll still be checking tho. Maybe I haven't seen the bad part of the school yet. LolVic Thoria

I was referred to this firm, George and Greg Psoras, specifically, by a friend, and I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and respectful attorneys. I had absolutely zero idea what to do/what was going to come of my situation and was incredibly anxious about my case, but George and Greg Psoras literally walked me through step-by-step with patience and compassion. I could not be more grateful. It was amazing watching them represent me. These guys absolutely 100% know what they are doing, and they will go above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome.Sarah Reckenwald

Mr. Rice is an amazing lawyer! I have used his services several times over the last nine years. He is highly knowledgeable in his field. He is always well composed and professional, and is respected by his peers. No matter what my situation was, he has never failed to accomplish an outcome that was beyond my expectation. I am more than satisfied with his performance. I plan to use him and his partners for other legal services in the future for any legal needs that may arise for my family and I.Jabin Savosik

Mr. Rice did everything we could have hoped for helping us get money for our accident. He did more for my family than I could have ever imagined. He returned all my wife’s and I phone calls and explained how the process worked and in the end got us more than we expected – if you need a lawyer that will work for your accident no better than Mr, Rice- he did the same for neighbor down the street who recommended we use him after he helped his family in a personal injury case.Scott R

From my very first conversation with Neil who answered the phone, I felt confident in his abilities. He was actually my third call after being rear ended by an uninsured driver. Neil was kind and relatable. The case took longer than initially expected due to the driver providing false insurance information, but Neil and his team was easy to work with. In this new world with covid and everything moves at a slow pace. They provided me with feedback and provided reasonable deadlines to all parties. I would highly recommend Neil and his team.Stefan Brown

Neil is a professional, kind, & caring attorney who gets to know his clients very personably. He exceeds expectations in every circumstance & always puts forth his best effort. Neil is also a very intelligent attorney who will do anything to provide the best work for his clients. One of the nicest people & I would definitely recommend him to anyone. He knows what is best for you & works to make that happen day in & day out. I’ve never had a bad experience working with or in conversation with him. Highly recommend.Amber Parks

I have had many attorneys for many different things over the years … by far the service I have received from Dubo Law has been excellent. The care and communication they have provided to me has been exceptional. Thank you Neil and Jordan for caring and explaining things for me, being patient with me through that awful time in my life … I have and will continue to refer clients his way as a direct result… thank you again for everything ❤️ ❤️ ❤️Yavone Forby

I live in PA and got a DUI in MD in Dec 2021. Beginning with our very first phone call conversation, Bruce Robinson eased my nerves and led me down path to a successful outcome. His advice and guidance was invaluable. He assured me that I would be OK, while being realistic about potential outcomes, and he was right. Because I followed his lead, and did exactly what he said to do over the course of 9 months, I walked out of court yesterday with minimal penalties from the sate of MD. Throughout the process, he was ALWAYS responsive to my calls and emails. His communication is unmatched. If you want peace of mind, knowing your lawyer has your back, Bruce is your guy. THANK YOU BRUCE!!!!!Rob Miller

I went to court today for DWI, DUI, and resisting arrest. The DWI and resisting arrest charges were dropped. I received a PBJ for the lesser DUI charge. I am able to keep my job which is highly technical and requires no felonies or misdemeanors. Please listen to every piece of advice that Bruce’s provides prior to your court date. Also take the charges seriously so that you can make the necessary changes to avoid run-ins with the law in the future. This is my first and will be last encounter with the police. I would have been in deep sh#t if Bruce had not been by my side. My Wife and I are grateful for Your Help Bruce. TBTeckie T

Bruce and Lance are absolutely amazing. They answered any questions that I had. Lance even said if I needed to talk to someone before court which was a holiday that I could call him. He went into court when they wanted to give my weekends for my 3rd DUI and fought that. When they asked for a suspended sentence he fought that and I ended up getting a PBJ with 5 years probation. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome! If you need someone to represent you Robinson and associates are the people you want with you in court.Michele Bancroft

From beginning to the end, Hyatt and Goldbloom has taken care of me and didn't leave room for me to guess where everything was during the process. Staff was very welcoming and efficient. I was actually surprised with how quickly everything was handled. I'm so happy I chose them to take care of me during my process. I'm referring anyone I know to them. I spoke with Todd on the phone and got to meet Mr. Goldbloom in person and he was so sweet. Thank you for everything!!Brittany Sample

I was in an accident earlier in the year and I reached out to Hyatt & Goldbloom Accident Attorney's. From the moment they took on my case, they treated me with kindness and respect. I was kept informed every step of the way. Every question that I had they answered, which made me feel very confident that I had chose the right attorneys to represent me.I never felt like a burden or like I was given the run around. I would definitely use them again if I had to.Nakeysha Thompson

Thanks so much to the Hyatt & GoldBloom Law firm. As always they take care of their clients in the most Professional way and make sure all your Questions are answered when they take on your case. I was very satisfied with my settlement as well as having them represent me. Thanks again and if you need strong & professional Lawyers to guide you get them Asap. I have received over 30 years of their Excellent service for me and my family & friends.Freddie Branch

Monica Scherer is an attorney beyond expectations one could ever imagine. We focused on finding an attorney who had the seasoned experience of seeing the problem through various lens beyond just your own view but a true champion, who was highly respected by those who were opposing attorneys, collaborative attorneys, judges, and all. We focused on finding the right person who has made a successful reputation for themselves through dedication and professionalism while also delicately helping you work through a system that works and does not work at the same time. Monica Scherer has all those skill sets and most importantly she is an amazing leader as a Sr. Partner in her firm. As a person she is a kind, caring, funny, empathetic, delicate, honest, professional, extremely responsive and knows what to do and more importantly when to do it. She is tactical and she understands factors beyond just the case itself of how those factors could play into the case. We cannot say enough positive things about Monica and how she has helped our family through some exceedingly difficult situations. She is extremely wise in understanding how clients’ emotions can play into their decisions and provides her time to allow you to process the feelings – while yet, saying “why don’t we let this set a few days and let’s come back and see if you still want to pursue.” Again, wise in her full understanding of the entire process which is beyond just legal skills, but her personal skills and connection going through “with you,” vs just “for you” is what sets her apart. We will close by saying, once you have worked with Monica regardless of the outcome in your favor or not, you will find yourself missing what you found as a friend when the case is over as she really does become part of your family going through a nasty and often heartbreaking case. Below are the specific call outs from her bio that drew us to selecting her as the right fit for our needs, we share these as they were the start of us selecting her but had no idea the impact she would have touched on our hearts and lives through her true commitment and connection she establishes with you as a client. • She concentrates representation in divorce, child custody, parenting agreements, child support, jurisdictional disputes (including international child custody disputes), and interstate child custody and child support matters. • She has successfully argued cases before the Maryland appellate courts resulting in published and unpublished opinions. • She is also trained in collaborative law, which is a commitment to recognizing that divorce and other family matters are multi-dimensional and often require assistance from other collaboratively trained professionals such as child specialists, financial specialists, and/or a divorce coach. • She is also a trained civil mediator and is regularly appointed by state courts to serve as a Best Interest Attorney or Privilege Attorney to represent children in highly contested cases. • Professional & Bar Associations o Maryland Association for Justice Family Law Section o Maryland State Bar Association o Federal Bar Association o Baltimore City Bar Association Family Law CommitteeRochelle Vargas

Laura Simmons was our guardian angel throughout a stressful and emotional time. The consummate professional. Thoroughly prepared, knowledgeable, personable and compassionate. Laura was as concerned about the physical recovery from the accident as the monetary one. Her representation exceeded our very high expectations. Laura never cut corners, nor were were we ever rushed into any decisions. We were kept informed of all important developments on a timely basis and all calls, text messages and emails to her were answered the same day. She was able to speak to us in layman’s terms and never responded to a question with legalese. We never felt like we were just another case in her office, we were treated like we were her only clients. Our grateful best wishes to you Laura. You were truly a godsend at a difficult period in our lives and it was our pleasure meeting and working with you.Eileen Greenberg

Let me start by saying, this firm is truly professional and I would never use anyone but them again in the future! I was involved in an automobile accident recently and my personal injury attorney assigned to handle my case was Laura Simmons! She was on top of things from beginning to the end! I never felt as if I had to ask her any questions because she covered everything during our conversations. Always kept me informed and was organized and professional all throughout this process. She worked hard on my case and we even got more than we asked for at trial. During the trial, as I watched her work, I felt at ease because she handled herself like a seasoned veteran. The thing I admired the most about Laura and her work is, she truly cares. She is simply just a great person! Thank you Laura from the bottom of my heart. Forever Grateful, Bill PainterBill Painter

In the middle of the night, I received a call that all mothers dread. My son had been arrested. I went into panic mode. I live over 700 miles away and felt absolutely helpless. I called several attorneys from different law firms to no avail. At 11:30am, that morning, I found the Law Offices of Thomas Maronick Jr. LLC on Google. I called and was connected to Attorney Michelle Murphy. She immediately began to calm me. She assured me she would represent my son at his bail hearing at 1:00pm. (Yes 1 hour and a half later) and do everything in her power to get him released. She worked quickly to gather as many details as possible and presented them at the hearing which allowed my son to be released bail free. I cannot thank her enough. She has been responsive and empathetic every step of the way. I will refer everyone to you. Thank you, Mrs. Murphy! You are a life saver.Carla S.

Mr.Thomas Maronick is SIMPLY AMAZING at what he does! From the very beginning that he started working with us, he sounded confident that could win our case. The way he carried our case was like no other. He made sure that we were informed of any possible outcomes and made sure to advise us in a way that made us feel that he GENUINELY had our best interest at heart. Even though the case took months, multiple court dates not once did he let us loose hope in him. He always sounded confident any time we had to be at hearing but he was even more confident and amazing at the day of our trial. The fact that other we heard other attorneys talk nothing but good things about Mr. Maronick, speaks VOLUMES. Mr. Thomas Maronick will be the person we contact if we ever need to him again.Jackie Avalos

Tom Maronick Jr was recommended to me by a friend. After reaching out to him and discussing my situation, I could immediately tell that he was the right lawyer for the issue I had. He was very knowledgeable about the laws and processes in Maryland and made sure that he conveyed everything to me in an easy to understand manner. He always made time for my questions both before and after representing me. He maintained a professional attitude at all times while still making me feel like we had known each other for years. I would highly recommend his services as he delivers the best results.Eric Feazel

On January 27, 2020 my cousin William Green was murdered by PG County officer Michael Owen. This horrific crime changed the lives of many in our family. Boo Boo, William's preferred name, is a very loved and cherished member of our family, always the life of the party with a joke to tell. Absorbing the impact of this loss was very difficult not only because of how he died, but mostly because of who committed the crime. This was a crime that we were seeing happen all across America, and in most cases the victim rarely received justice. This crime against Boo Boo was bigger than my family, this was a crime against Black Men, and we needed help to ensure his death was not in vain and that justice was served. I reached out to MFM on the morning of January 28th. The response to our call and their advocating for our family was immediate. From the very first encounter we knew they understood our needs and had the knowledge and resources to help my family navigate this very difficult situation. MFM treated us like family, they fought to ensure PG County took responsibility for the actions of their employee. We were always informed, all calls were answered, and what was most helpful was having someone that understood our pain and needs during this time. MFM provided us with a service not afforded to so many other families. They provided a personalized experience that I don't feel we would of received with another firm. They understand the current issues our Black Communities and people of color are facing in America. They are willing to take on these issues and fight not only for us but with us! I will recommend them to anyone who is in need of exceptional representation with a firm that takes a personal interest in your case.Nikki J

I remember when I first started my case, the first visit being constantly reassured that My people would be taken care of,and being told just hang in there. I don't usually put my confidence in many people but something told me that we were in good hands especially knowing what the firm had done for people like myself in the past and coming out of it with a win I believed in them. At the same time not really worrying too much about winning just being able to fight for all the right reasons and my people with dedicated people behind us was enough for me. The fact that myself and many other relatives came out with the win after all we had been through living in such undesirable conditions and actually be compensated made it more than just a victory it gave us a voice and allowed those who wronged us know we were human and we deserve to be treated as such.Thanks for all the residents who hung in their and also trusted the progress and Thanks so much Murphy, Falcon &Murphy for your time and Dedication and giving us back our dignity we rightfully deserved. Zaire ❤❤❤❤❤Zaire Boyd

I'll just say… Police are to blk men as Drs are to black woman. No justice. No one to fight for my rights a patient. A cooked knee cap and a knee replacement that is to big has nothing to do with a common looseness in the replacement put in by a Dr who didn't care and even after multiple complaints. Dr. Neubouer Mercy. his pitiful. His mistakes were pointed out by a better ortho dr. I have to have revision surgery after 2 yrs 5 months of pain. But I have a referral number. Thanks Andew.Marlene Hamm

Something unusual and unexpected happened. My belief in the good in humanity was validated. I was sure there were few good people left in this world. My son was in court unrepresented, when Attorney David Shapiro stood up and said, “I will represent him”. He knew nothing about my son, his background, or his case, yet he saw a human being in need of support, and he stepped in. In a few minutes of hurried conversation, he was able to grasp the situation, humanize my son for the court, explain his case, and get to a resolution. I remain amazed and forever indebted to Attorney Shapiro. Before this if you asked me, I would not have had a single attorney in Baltimore I could recommend. Today I can highly recommend Attorney Shapiro. May God richly bless you.Cheryl Molyneaux

I had a very good experience working with Mr. David Shapiro on a car accident case. In fact, when the accident occurred, a friend of mine provided me with Mr. Shapiro's contact and gave me a very good testimonial about him, which encouraged me to go to him. Mr. Shapiro handled my case very well and gave me a lot of advice from the beginning to the end of the process. He was always ready to welcome me to his office when needed. In the end, the case was resolved and I am completely satisfied. Overall, from experience, I must say: Mr. Shapiro knows his job very well and is very reliable !Romario Gildas Foko Tiomela

This office is extremely unprofessional when it comes to communicating.My cases have been pending for years.I do not receive phone calls from this office in regards to my cases.When I call I am met with the Voicemail, the Secretary, or a paralegal that never calls back. I have called 3-4 in the last 2 week and still haven't received confirmation that they received photos I emailed.After my cases settle out I will never use this office again, Nor will I recommend them to anyone.Won Understanding

One of the best schools i was fortunate to attend. From Bachelor's to Master's and after completion of my master's in spring 2020 i'm seriously considering law school. Great school, great staff, world class Professors, without a shadow of a doubt.Benjamin Parry

The law students doesn’t deserve this building they forgot where they started out from. But, they should be glad for having itCozy Darkness

Allan Rombro is professionally outstanding and so well connected with the legal system and it's challenges. He represented our son twice within 18 months. The first time he was able to resolve a very difficult case involving multiple felony charges by securing a reasonable and fair probation. He is so understanding, patient and caring that I grew to trust him and always count on him to field my numerous anxiety calls during the process. I felt he was always one step ahead of my questions to provide detailed explanations for everything that was happening. His confident assurance made me feel less anxious and blessed to have him working for us. The second time involved breaking probation with criminal issues in another state. We contacted Allan immediately and he was ready and willing to represent our son again knowing it was going to be even more difficult to resolve. Even before his extradition back to MD, Allan already had his plan together and everything he said would happen actually happen only much better that we expected. At the bail hearing he was able get the judge to allow him to be placed in a 30 day inpatient rehab program. Six weeks later at the final probation violation trial, he was told he could receive 18 months incarceration. Amazingly, Allan Rombro was able to convince the judge that incarceration was not going to be the right thing for permanent recovery. I believe his reputation as a fair and honest lawyer within the legal community helped the judge take his recommendations. Having received a perfect record from the rehab facility, Allan was able to position this achievement with the judge so she would rule in favor of him being released. The outcome was beyond our expectations because he was released! He is currently living at an extension of the rehab facility. He choose to start his life over with good accountability, attending meetings, working 2 jobs and going to church. He even has plans to work as a rehab counselor. None of this would have happened without Allan being so successful and inspirational. I went into this much detail because I wanted everyone to know that what Allan did was so much more then we ever believed possible. No matter how difficult the case, Allan Rombro should be your first choice. He is simply the best !!judi voss

So two very serious and upsetting legal problems happened in my life in the past year in quick succession, leaving me facing the possibility of serious consequences. I knew I would need good legal help to hopefully not have my life ruined, keep my job and my license. I found Allan Rombro as a top rated lawyer in my area and after reading his many glowing reviews I decided to hire him. This was a very good decision. He got one of my cases dismissed which was an enormous relief, got me probation in the other case and I had NO ACTION taken against me by the MVA which was frankly astounding. He also took all my panicked phone calls, talked me down and acted as emotional support which I appreciated very very much being an anxious person. He also let me know what was going to happen at court before I walked into the room which was amazing. Everything could have gone very poorly for me in this whole process, Allan gave me the best outcome possible and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend him.Nicholas Davieau

If you ever need an Attorney to represent you in any matter,Allan's the one to contact! He's highly confident in what he does,never lied to me and kept me informed of what the possibilities and the outcome would be in my case.Allan answered all of my texts and phone calls and never once had me feeling like I'm getting on his nerves,he delivers what he promise and I were extremely satisfied with everything. His paralegal has also kept me very calmed in the process as well and also told me I'll be fine and have nothing to worry about! Allan knew what the outcome were going to be a few days before the case and I couldn't have asked for anything better than being able to walk free! If you ever need an honest Attorney please don't hesitate to call this Awesome guy asap because he would never ever let you down and would fight until he get you what you deserve! Thanks Allan!Ashley Serrio

Mr. Jason Plotkin and his team were a beacon of HOPE to my family and I as we navigated through a difficult time. Prior to meeting with Mr. Plotkin, we had gone through a series of nightmare while working with another lawyer's office. Pinder Plotkin came in highly recommended and we were willing to take the leap of FAITH. When you talk about excellent communication and world class client relationship, this is your ONE STOP SHOP. In our first consultation we were reassured of the steps that would be taken to achieve a satisfactory resolution. Mr. Jason Plotkin and his legal assistant Ms. Nancy are the dynamic duo. You can always expect to get the latest update on what is happening with your case and the likely next steps. During the instances where we had to be represented, Mr. Jason defended us in the highest regard. My family and I are eternally grateful for your stellar service and hereby unreservedly recommend Jason Plotkin and the entire Pinder Plotkin Legal Team for a world class experience. We received a favorable outcome and it would not have been possible without the skills, competencies, experience, effective communication and collaboration from the Pinder Plotkin Team. Thank You!

Excellent Law Firm. My lawyer Angel who is employed here was absolutely amazing with keeping me informed and involved with my case. She did whatever she could to get me out and back home. She proved my innocence and showed the law how I was wrongfully arrested and how it went against my rights. If you need a good hearted, honest, will fight for your innocence and has only your well-being in mind. Then I highly recommend The Law office of James E. Crawford and I highly recommend, Angel Campbell. I respect and appreciate Angel Campbell more than she may ever know but I am also very grateful and thankful that she was able to prove my innocence and get my case dismissed. It was a pleasure working and meeting with her. Thank youAlana Kay Waters

I highly recommend James Crawford Law Firm. If you have any legal issues, please use them. I enjoyed working with Attorney Mark Sobel, he worked really hard for me and kept me informed all the time. I like the fact that I was able to talk to him directly. I'm greatful they were able to assist me, and I'm very, very happy with the outcome. Thanks again Mark and the entire James Crawford Law Firm. Also their fees are reasonable and affordable, I believe they really enjoy working for their clients and helping them. Thanks again Mark. Shirley Chisholm.Shirley Chisholm

I can’t say enough about how unbelievably Amazing this firm is. From the first phone call to scheduling with the Best Attorney possible related to my case. Mark Sobel was incredible. Very patient and understanding and extremely thorough in explaining everything from Step 1 what to expect. He reassured us all along that everything would be okay and to just trust him. As hard as it was at times, that is exactly what we did and it was the Best decision we ever made hiring him. I’d highly recommend anyone at this firm for any of your legal needs.Linda Ancillai

RE Owner Response: As previously stated, this review was updated. There were no "fake" reviews, as owner claims. ——- Be cautious if you are thinking of engaging this firm, or Eric Fifer, to address the needs of your loved ones when you are no longer present to speak. TAKE NOTE: other reviews of this firm don’t speak to your estate after your passing, and the plan you created with this firm comes into effect. IN STEPS, TAKEN AS TIME ALLOWS, this review does. TLDR: If you have already used this firm to create an estate plan, have another firm review it ASAP. If it happened to be "suggested" you sign an attorney from this firm as a trustee, and you did – find someone else IMMEDIATELY. Upon your passing, your trust merely becomes an income stream for the attorney and firm; your wishes, in writing or not, along with the Maryland Laws mentioned below, are not followed. The partners at this firm are aware the steps needing to be taken for a change to happen after your passing are unlikely to occur. They will not inform your beneficiaries of the role or steps they have taken, until deadlines have passed – if at all, regardless of Maryland law – they will find an out for not doing so- even if that "out" is dependent upon beneficiary lack of funds (despite your wishes they will block access to a trust, if you have set one up through them, or assigned one of their attorneys as trustee), lack of legal savvy (beneficiary not becoming informed prior to deadlines passing), or the firm/specific attorney's lack of disclosure. Eric Fifer, a partner at this firm, who my mother unwittingly met – many years into dementia (well beyond the point to have met all five of the Maryland requirements to be a party to a contract (i.e., changing a will, instituting a trustee – or a trust, etc.), after her death, refused to discuss changes he made under my mother's name with w/ her beneficiaries – and does not take calls from, or otherwise respond to beneficiaries trying access to trust funds. In the beginning, Eric Fifer presents a professional demeanor – and when he was speaking courteously with me – it was an extended year plus manipulation. Once I figured it out, his demeanor immediately changed, and the trust was blocked. It was not until I hired an attorney after too many things were not adding up – that I found out the vast changes Eric Fifer made to her will, including, the insertion of himself – as lifelong trustee for millions of dollars in trust funds. To be clear, if you are not familiar with the five requirements to be party to a Maryland contract, the main element in question here, and I suspect for many others, is competence. My mother would not have known to even request the changes that were made. While she was a very smart woman, at that point in her life, she lacked the capacity to know what to request to have made the vast changes Eric Fifer made. While it is against MD law, Will and Estate laws are enforced by complaint only, within limited time constraints. Basically, the two items upon which Hassani, Focas and Fifer rely, are: 1) they need only to keep their mouths shut for 6 months, to allow the timeframe to contest a will to pass – and, 2) dead people don't speak, and can't complain when their wishes are not followed. Still uncovering various unethical and unlawful actions per MD code, standards and law.. This firm, knowing these "missteps" likely will not be discovered until the manipulated, vulnerable victim is deceased, and options of recourse become limited, costly and nearly impossible to reverse, effectively gives themselves carte blanche to your trust funds. Then, as beneficiaries struggle to access those funds, Hassani, Focas & Fifer continue to pay themselves as "trustees", skirt the law and create second generation victims. It is a sickening shock to learn your parent or child was taken advantage of in such an extreme way, to have been coerced or manipulated (after-the-fact manipulation and coercion are difficult to parse) to ends they never desired for themselves, or for their loved ones.G

I contacted HF&F PA when I was given a link to their EZ Estate Plan. We just needed Powers of Attorney, Medical Directives and a Will that would state the basics. The EZ Plan was PERFECT. I have started a Will and POA's online before (on websites like legal zoom) but I never felt comfortable hitting the save button. I am not a lawyer. It made me so nervous to make my own legal doc and have it in force. I was also hesitant to contact a law firm to do it b/c I figured it will be thousands of dollars. The EZ Plan lets you speak to a local attorney, tell them exactly what you want, and they draw up the docs. It can be done mostly over the phone with the attorneys, than you go in and sign the documents. VERY reasonable pricing, and made me feel so much better than doing it alone!! Would recommend to all my friends.Rebecca Yates

Outstanding Law Firm. The Firm has been in existence for several decades because the attorneys provide solid legal advice at a fair price. I always refer family and friends to this firm for legal work, including but not limited to, Estate Work and Business Planning. Jerry Focas, one the partners, has an outstanding reputation with other Attorneys, Judges, and Business Leaders in the area….a true testament to his character and skill level. One of the best Law Firms in Baltimore County.Bruce Hechmer

Jim Hock represented my wife in a worker's compensation claim. The fact that it was a worker's comp claim was never challenged by the opposition, but of course the amount was. We were referred to Jim by a dear friend, who also happened to be an attorney. He recommended Jim as an expert in this field, and he wasn't wrong. While Jim's expertise was important to us, equally as important was having an attorney we could talk to and to whom we could relate. We found that. Jim never "sugar coated" things, but instead kept us informed every step of the way, accurately letting us know, in our terms, what to expect and what challenges we would face. In the end, the settlement was at the high end of what Jim had told us we might expect. Jim spoke in real terms so that when we did a little better than expected, we were thrilled. We have found a family lawyer and highly recommend him to anyone else.William Kraft

I just recently got into a 4 car collision and I was calling around for a attorney and no one wanted to take on my case . After a couple of days of searching I came across this firm . I had a chance to talk to Rachel and it was like a match made in heaven . Rachel gave me reassurance from day one ! She made it easy to become comfortable . She has been walking me step by step this entire process! Going over and above ! I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone one in need of legal assistance . Especially Rachel she’s a great .Jasmine Allen

Contacted immediately after receiving a DUI last December. Met with Craig Ross and setup a plan moving forward to best present myself to the court. Offered sound advice and a plan which resulted in a PBJ and minimal fines from the court. Craig was very reassuring during the process and the administration team at the firm kept me up to date with all information and updates to my case as it went through the process. I could not have asked for a better team to legally represent me.Bryan Witt

This is the best law firm to go to if you feel you need help! Mr. Turnbull wins our case everytime….and he responds quickly if you need an answer to something. It makes me feel very secure to have him stand with my son in court knowing he will go above and beyond helping him. I would not think of getting anyone else neither would my son. In times of trouble the first thing my son say's to me is get John!!! If you landed here looking for help…..look no further because help is right here! John is the God of all attorneys…..although my son is eligible to get public defenders we get John Turnbull we would rather pay then get someone who does not know what they are doing! The Best in Maryland!!! John is one of the best…you get what you pay for and he is worth it! I hope we don't need him for awhile but next time my son is paying for his own trouble….I just hope he stays out of trouble. John does have assistants that work in the office (other attorneys) my son got Chelsy Segar….she was great my son said but I never met her only talked with her briefly. I guess if you want John himself you need to ask for him, my son prefers to have him but they are all capable of winning and dealing with criminal charges and such. If something ever happens trouble wise we're like….John Turnbull! So funny….I refer to him as Jesus Christ Turnbull cuz when he walks into the court room it's like Jesus has arrived.allyson trionfo

I had a great experience with the Turnbull Brockmeyer group. I was so nervous looking for a lawyer, I’d never needed one before. Jack was the third lawyer I had a consultation with and I knew the second I got off the phone that he was the guy. I even cancelled later consultations because I was so sure. Jack took care of everything for me and went above and beyond helping me with my case. Everything with him was so smooth and simple, and I’m so thankful that we connected. He knows what he’s doing, he’s great at it, and he’s such a good connection to have. I highly recommend the Turnbull Brockmeyer law group and will absolutely use them again if I am ever in need of a lawyer!Ana Loukas

I was so nervous looking for an attorney because it was my first time reaching out for one. My first time meeting Mr. Turnbull made me feel even more calm and gave me reassurance. He returns phone calls in less than 12 hours time period and makes time to discuss your matter over the phone. I made and appointment to meet with him and my husband came with me. I consulted him in regards to a situation that happened to me at a Private School. He explained to my husband and In detailed and step by step what we have to do. We definitely received critical advice and honest information. Very professional and I Personally recommend his services to my friends and family.claudia miranda

This school wasted so much of my time. I was using a veteran's program that ends this year, and I spoke with their admissions, the VA rep, and academic advising and they put me thru the whole process of enrolling, having transcript sent, etc. Then I was told by the VA rep to enroll right away, but I was not allowed to until I spoke with Advising. At that time I was told I was good to go and could enroll on Oct 24th. I called the school to enroll on that day and was told I was too late. The classes I would be enrolling for start the following January. I was given contradictory information at every step, and now with such a time crunch on my hands I have to start at square one talking with a bunch of other schools to see who can fit me in. Meanwhile I've wasted a whole week waiting for this school's "first day to register" and paying to send my transcript. I am not at all a happy camper, and will never do business with this school again. Very disorganized and not very professional in their dealings and customer service.Christopher Hinton

My daughter took a class with Professor Yvonne Chaney. There was poor communication, minimal instruction, and unfair grading. My daughter has been a straight A student her whole life. Taking APs and honors classes. Never below a 4.0 and she currency has a 5.3. She has been doing very good in English, which is why she chose to take this class. The grade given was unfair and incorrect. I am incredibly disappointed and frustrated with the result of this class. I don't think this teacher knows what is she doingh T

This school treats me like trash. A lot of things they have done since going here is sneaky and weird and if it continues I’d have to report them to the real government. This campus plays games, jokes and gossips about students, and acts weird about everything and I mean EVERYTHING I try to do. It drains me to the point that I want to drop out of school indefinitely. No one in this school has offered actual help while I’ve been attending and when I ask for help they’ll do everything but that.Princess //

The staff at Richard Klein law firm is outstanding!!!! This is my second time using this law firm. There was no hassle, no delays, and no getting the information that they needed on my end. Their first concern was my well-being and immediately set me up to have physical therapy. My settlement was more than what I expected. And it did not take a year for me to get my money. I did not have to deal with the other guys insurance company at all. Except for the initial contact. I will recommend Richard Klein's law firm to all my friends and family. I am willing to do a absolutely free commercial to represent them! Mr Klein you have a client for life. Mrs Adrea Witherspoon. Very satisfied customer 😇Adrea Witherspoon

I am very grateful for the help I have received from the Law Office of Richard R. Klein/ Attorney Big Al. I was in a car accident which mine was totaled. I needed their services and as always the service exceeded my expectations. At any time I need them as far as emailing or making a phone call they are always available to help quickly and with a high level of professionalism. I just want to give a big shout out to Numi. She was awesome and great to work with. She explained everything in detail and made the process a better learning experience for me. If you need an attorney and have no idea where to start I recommend to you these are your guys.kaya johnson

Ms. Shay is awesome. Always pleasant, a kind listener, and if she doesn't know the answer, she'll find someone who does. She's exceptional. And Mr. Orren is one of the nicest Attorneys/Case Managers I have met. He answers my questions with patience and keeps me abreast of what is going on with my case. If the staff at the Law Firm of Richard Klein is genuinely invested in the client, that makes me even more confident in the law firm's ability to fight for my best interest.Tamara Smalls

I can't speak to the Phlebotomy class but I took the IV training class and it was truly a huge waste of money. If you are reading this – be warned – you will learn nothing in this class. You are better of reaching out to a coworker or your manager to help you with your IV skills. This class consisted on 2 hours of antiquated movies on IV access, followed by 30 minutes of "lecture" aka reading word for word from a handout, then all of 10 minutes "practicing" IV skills. We practiced on a fake arm clearly practiced on a lot because there were streaks on the arm exactly where the IV was to be inserted. We didn't practice any techniques for difficult veins. DO NO waste your money. You can search videos on YouTube which would be way more helpful (and less money!) then this scam.Katherine Goodfellow

I took the Saturday phlebotomy course and I loved it. The teacher was very professional and gave us as students the best experience. He made himself available to answer questions both inside and outside the classroom. During our practice hands on skills he also made himself available for draws. I would definitely take another course at this school. The value you walk away with is priceless.laneal adeyemo

Great training. I took the phlebotomy course, which was thorough and provided plenty of opportunities to learn how to draw blood. The best part was the intership, where you have an opportunity to go out and draw on real patients and become comfortable with your new skill.Cynthia Jefferson
