Reviews

The law office avoids contact with participating parties of probate cases. When basic tenants of trust and respect are lost, no one makes any attempt to correct or reverse course. The senior partnership professionals (that’s what they are called, but don’t act the role) do not engage and make situations right. They circumvent answers to basic questions and fiduciary responsibility to all parties of probate. Mr. Jeremy Berg refuses to see through basic matters of probate settlement and the entire firm purposely drags out finality, especially if your not one of their “good ole boys” or prominent members of citizenship in the area
I trusted them because I trusted a certain attorney in the firm. I absolutely lost everything I owned! Including my bed and everything else during their representation during covid. Disregarded the law or my personal human rights. Not to mention my minor child. No law was observed or utilizedto defendme.. Not sure why? I was charged over $30,000 for the pleasure. I truly wish the bar association would look into this complete disregard of human rights. To follow it up... still had trust in Ben. He has a great salesmanship. Completely makes you believe he cared. A slam dunk case of conning the elderly during a storm . Turned into an epic loss. I personally collected all of the nails that where tossed off my parents roof. Doctored picture dates and lack of concern by the law firm. Resulted in my parents getting conned yet again! I truly need to pursue a lawsuit against my attorney for neglect. I haven't yet. Out of emotional respect for Ben. That respect was another missreprention he created for himself. Honest people tend to believe people are honest. That is why we will never succeed. The cons will always win with that mentality. My evidence and documented proof needs to go to the attorney General. That is the only way crooks and con men ever are held accountable! BTW... shame on you and I'm sorry for your children. We owe them better!
Jeffery A Grace responded to my inquiry but had no knowledge of my situation which I provided via email. He seemed not interested in investigating the situation in question. He had invested time in what my My MetLegal policy covered, which he stated was an initial consult not representation. Therefore, he could bill for the 18 minute 33 second phone call and follow-up email which was void of legal consult. He knew enough about my legal obligations to counter my statements but not enough to give legal advise without an investigation to which he never gave me a cost estimate. I would not be interested in any follow-up from this firm based on this review. I would request you not offer any estimate nor reach back out to me.
Attorney Alyssa Nelson helped me with my QDRO. I was extremely nervous about retaining attorney services because of the horror stories I had heard from others about being charged unfairly and ending up in debt, only to find their situation worse than it had started out. I made those worries clear and Alyssa assured me that she would work as efficiently as possible as to keep my cost down. She kept her word and everything went through without any problems. I would most definitally recommend Alyssa!
I have worked with 2 attorneys at Blethen Berens and have been very pleased with the results. Treated with respect and covid19 prepared. I wouldn't think of seeking other legal advice. Very friendly staff and atmosphere.
