I am quite positive someone who works or represents this firm will write and post a rebuttal to my review but oh well. I feel it needs to be addressed. This was a costly lesson in you get what you pay for. If you are looking for half price legal services with good proper representation, keep telling yourself over and over you get what you pay for. My fiance was going through a very hard post divorce conflict with her ex husband and needed help with a modification. We met with an attorney and paid the retainer. The initial meeting went well it lasted almost two hours and we laid out a plan and the attorney was very confident with all we had that we could have a very favorable outcome. For the next three weeks the attorney we met skirted us and basically did nothing. We then receive a email from him stating he was taking another job and would be handing the case file off to another attorney who would be in touch. Two more attorneys later passed around we where back to where we started. At this point its been a month and they have done pretty much nothing. We set up a phone meeting where we spent the next hour+ explaining and going over every detail as done before. What basically happened next was they decided the case would be to in depth and complicated for their scope to proceed like we where promised initially. So basically what happened in my honest opinion was they legally stole half her retainer and did nothing for her and wasted a month of her time. Its sad we live in a world where people like this can take advantage of a single mother and frivolously squander her hard earned money.

Worst experience ever by incompetent Para legals and Lawyers !!! Took my case I spent 2 hours with Blake the Para legal , we went over every detail during that 2 hours , and then 4 days asked me again to give her a list of those items we went over , they set up a mediation date without even consulting me , when I tried to call them to find a better date they accused me of being a difficult client and said I called 2 times in 10 days which means that I am abusing there time !!! Then after they tried to charge me 500.00 they then said they did not have the time to take my case and resigned from representing me without my knowledge , I found out from my ex and his lawyer that they resigned !!!! I never even met the lawyer when they took my case he was to busy , the paralegal and lawyer did not ever communicate to each other . They do not help you at all. Stay away , they will cause more problems and keep charging , and if you have questions about your case and ask them to explain things they will call you confrentational.

My wife and I recently used Open Legal Services for a termination of parental rights, and adoption by my wife of my biological son. Throughout the whole process the entire staff was professional and always quick to respond to any questions we had. They were both friendly and informative. I would like to mention in particular Mr Chase Ames who was our attorney through most of our case. Chase was absolutely amazing! He kept us informed of what was happening with our case every step of the way. He also let us know what to expect going forward throughout the process so we were never confused as to what was going on with our case, what was expected of us, or how our case was progressing. Chase, and all of the staff we dealt with were phenomenal.

Open Legal Services has started a movement to offer affordable legal services to those that traditionally did not have access to attorneys. As consultants to my practice here in Philadelphia, it is clear that the attorneys at OLS have one goal: to serve low to middle income families to the best of their ability. They have also been a resource for many attorneys across the country venturing into this new business model trying to revolutionize legal services. Kudos to all the attorneys at OLS for trying to make this work for their clients and for making the business model accessible to other attorneys as well.

I was grateful that Staci followed through when I needed her to! I had retained a divorce attorney, who was handling a criminal case for me as well. There was no follow through on his part. In counsel with his firm, they tried to convince me there was nothing they could do to get the criminal case dismissed! They would have allowed a negative judgement to be placed upon me unjustly! I fired them and retained Open legal services. I was given Staci Visser to represent me. Staci did her job, and my criminal case was dismissed!

Bad people work here, I paid money and they took all of it for nothing i want full custody of my son so i can get him away from a bad situation and all Ari did was nothing if i pay you my hard working low in-come money. I want someone to tel me this is what we are going to do . THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU THEY WANT MONEY THEY ARE LAWYERS WHO LOOK DOWN ON PEOPLE AND LIE IF YOU ARE POOR THEY WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU. THEY HAVE THE DEGREE THEY BETTER THAN YOU.

Open Legal Services provided our agency with expert consultation and guidance as we evaluated an opportunity to start a similar business in Florida. Their compassion for the clients they serve was most remarkable and their commitment to providing world class legal services at an affordable price was nothing short of inspiring. While we struggle to meet the standard Open Legal Services has set I can recommend this organization with complete confidence.

Shantelle and David were extremely responsive and helpful! Setting up an appointment to learn how to add a sliding scale to my business plan was quick and easy. Shantelle was incredibly helpful and gave me information that was easy to grasp and very relevant to my current practice. I learned so much in a short time. Thank you so much!! And thank you for the work you do!!

You have a better chance at winning your case by throwing dimes down the drain. In the eight months that I was with this firm I was tossed back and forth between four different attorneys. I waited weeks for a response to simple questions. I asked on six separate occasions that my ex be drug tested and it never happened. I will not use this firm again.

If I could give 0 stars I would. What a waste. We ended up getting a new attorney and everything that took months with OLS took 2 days for our new one. They will jerk you around. No answers. File late. Charge more and more with no explanation or itemized summary. Please do not go to them for help, no matter how desperate.

Open Legal Services accomplished what I needed done and at very reasonable rates (based on income). My attorney responded to my questions in a timely manner and made sure everything was done fairly, and properly according to my situation. I would recommend them to anyone.
