Barron & Engstrom PLC

Reviews

I was treated as a low life, I believe, because Engstrom knew, he wouldn't earn a significant amount of money off of my case. I was at an appointment and waited 15 minutes and he came out and said, "I thought you were a "no show " I was never late for any appointment nor did I ever cancel an appointment. He would not listen to me, when I explained two mortgages on one account at a Credit Union. He should of put stipulations in the Divorce papers. He did not even sign my papers! The other Law office, did it for him. I was very disappointed. I gave him the respect I thought he deserved, but I learned, I was very wrong about him. I believe I may of taught him something, the other Law office bullied me and he let them do it! If you are a woman, do not hire him. I have keep my word to him, I will have him paid off next month! Because God is the Best Husband I have ever had!
Can I give Ed Engstrom negative infinity stars? Ed Engstrom was my attorney; in six weeks he never interviewed witnesses, never interviewed me, never interviewed the "victim." Never sent me any court documents. Never told me when my court date was. Never gathered exculpatory evidence. Never pointed out blatant errors and/or lies in charging documents. Never gave me a list of exhibits. Never gave me a witness list. Never pointed out contradictory witness statements. Never tried to dismiss on basis of inaccurate/altered reports, rules of evidence violations, police/prosecutorial misconduct, not meeting legal definitions. Waived preliminary examination despite my objections. Did not try for bail reduction. Did not attempt to obtain medical reports. Did not report police misconduct seen repeatedly on video. Did not report witness' post-incident crimes against defendant. Ed did absolutely nothing to prepare for trial, dismiss charges or get them reduced for being totally unsupported by evidence. Blamed his secretary when he failed to give her paperwork to send. A cat would be a better attorney than Ed Engstrom.
I hired Ed Engstrom to do agreements for a shared driveway with 5 lots. Wanted it to go for life so no more problems. It started September 2015 and finished January 2016. I was under the impression it was done. I found out this year 2018 that a foreclosure law cancels out the agreements. So out of the 5 ...2 are no longer part of the agreement. Lawyer Ed Engstrom was suppose to have the owners and banks sign off if there were loans on the properties and that failed to happen. So now I am out 12k for no reason. I will file a grievance against him since he refuses to to fix It. Be sure you hire a lawyer who knows real estate laws. Not one that says he does.
I came to Mr Engstrom with a aggravated assault case, after 2 pretrials there was no deals that were favorable. I was kept in the dark with my case and felt very sad and defenseless. Had to turn to another attorneys to finish the job. I do not recommend for criminal defense.
Does a great job on Will and Trust work. Amanda and Ed Engstrom seem to be a great Team. They both are very responsive and accommodating towards our needs. We're very satisfied and will use them again in the future.
