McLeod Philip A Atty

I worked with Ross Kaplan and his office on my claim. Communication was always regular and clear. It was my first interaction with a lawyer and I'm very pleased with both the process، and the outcome.

Have worked with McLeod Law in the past so I went to them right way for a simple request regarding title insurance. Left voicemails with two lawyers (at two different times) that، according to the receptionist، could do the work. Neither responded. Unprofessional and insulting. No problem if you are too busy or feel there are not enough billable hours involved for you to bother، but at least give a past client enough respect to return their phone calls and let them move on. Arrogant and condescending. Will not work with them again.

Used them for what was supposed to be a straight forward separation agreement. I felt the opposing counsel dictated the terms of the agreement and my counsel simply followed suit with hardly any push back. Often communication to them would go unanswered and I would need to follow up constantly. In some instances I was doing the research work my counsel was supposed to be doing. I'd recommend people go elsewhere for a family lawyer.

My experience with Lucy as opposing counsel raised concerns about professionalism and file management. Court documents contained copy-and-paste errors، including an incorrect name that appeared to belong to another matter، which I viewed as a confidentiality concern. After sending four follow-up emails، I eventually received a response advising me to disregard the error. In a legal context، accuracy and confidentiality are critical، and this experience does not reflect any of the above principles.

Three years ago، I made the decision to work with McLeod Law—specifically، Shane King. I was pretty nervous at first; I’d never needed a lawyer before، but an unexpected departure from my job led me to seek some professional help. Shane was incredibly thorough، walking me through the pros and cons of taking legal action، while still being confident that we could reach a positive outcome. Fast forward to today: the file is officially closed، and both parties can finally move forward. It was definitely a long road with plenty of highs and lows، but not once did I doubt that Shane had my best interests at heart. Lawyers sometimes get a bad rap—probably because of the price tag—but some things are worth paying for. Having someone in your corner who genuinely goes to bat for you is one of them. I’m giving 4 out of 5 stars… only because I feel obligated to maintain the classic “lawyer stigma.” Sorry، Shane!
