I had an extremely disappointing experience with King Spry Herman Freund & Faul LLC. In my case, their level of incompetence in family law, particularly in divorce proceedings, was astonishing. Donald Spry drafted a painfully convoluted and confusing divorce proposal that smelled of purposeful intent to advance their billable hours. Despite being highly recommended by a reputable firm in the Lehigh Valley, their law firm has little regard for their clientele’s needs. Since I had come into money, they thought I would be a mini-cash cow for them. Granted, I have my MBA and have worked in contract management in the telecom industry for years; I certainly wasn’t going to be taken for a ride. It came to a point where I had to challenge their overall strategy, as he was often unavailable, due to being tied up in court. I had asked Donald directly several times if he had the bandwidth as he wasn’t connected to my case in the least. Note, he NEVER once addressed any of my concerns including his lack of availability. Upon being challenged and taking no accountability for his failures with my case, all he could do was do the cowardly thing and email me saying, “I think there has been a breakdown of our attorney/client relationship, and you need to move on with another lawyer.” He knew he was being called out and couldn’t man up and own his mistakes. Sadly, I’ll never trust a reference until I thoroughly vet the party. It’s taken me a few years to address this, but others need to know what you're dealing with. The story ended with finding another attorney, who wrapped up the divorce for 85% less than what I had already paid out to Donald Spry and Co. And no, Spry didn't get me halfway there, though they like to think they did. The real work and negotiations needed a reboot, and luckily, it ended much better than it had started.
Attorney Jessica Moyer has been used by my family several times. She is extremely professional, returns calls promptly and is excellent in the court room. I cannot speak highly enough of her skills.
Ignored the rudeness, insults, questionable questions and their strategy only because, they came so highly recommended. I kept telling my self what others said to me "They are the best!". However, I kept asking my self "Do they treat all their clients like this?". Finally I had enough when I was shouted at and bluntly told they didn't care about my case any more. I was forced to fire them days before trial. I was never treated like the valued paying client like I was. Very disappointed.
This review is long overdue. I entrusted the closing of my property to Matt Tranter esq. - Partner, upon many glowing reviews from well respected local residents and business owners. My closing could not have gone more smoothly and Mr. Tranter was the guiding voice I needed when handling such a complex transaction. The amount of constant moving parts during this unique closing would surly throw of an inexperienced attorney but not Mr. Tranter. It was like a walk in the park for this well seasoned attorney. Can’t wait to work with him again.
This law firm is only for rich people with fake nails et Armani suits. My own cousin is a partner! Seven years ago, his fake-nailed secretary messed up my correspondence and I had to contact my cousin at home. A taciturn letter was sent to me regarding a divorcement and that was the end of it. ONLY GO THERE IF YOU ARE AKIN TO OUR PRESIDENT!
