Do Not Hire Jeff Frasier! Please Read Our Review Before Considering Hiring Him
Jeffrey Frasier was with this firm when we first hired him to represent us.
When my husband first contacted Jeff Frasier about our situation, Jeff told us that “we have a strong case.” Based on the information and confidence he provided during that initial phone call, we decided to move forward with him. Unfortunately, we felt we were led on for nearly two years before going to trial. Throughout that time, Jeff repeatedly told us that we would “get something” from the case. He continued contacting us by phone and email asking for additional information about the situation, and we continued being billed for his time. Nearly a year after the lawsuit began, we met with him once to go over what to expect during the arbitration process. As someone with no prior experience suing anyone or working with an attorney, I relied heavily on my attorney to properly prepare and guide us. Unfortunately, that meeting left me with even more questions and did not make me feel prepared for what was ahead. Jeff then sent a junior attorney to handle the arbitration. In our experience, she appeared inexperienced and unprofessional. She essentially sat in the room with us during the arbitration, and we were billed for her time and presence, which was very concerning to us. After nearly two years of legal bills, we finally went to trial. Unfortunately, Jeff did not appear prepared or knowledgeable about our case. During the trial, he stumbled through his presentation and became frustrated. At one point, the judge even told him that he was repeating himself. On the second day of trial, the judge issued a directed verdict, meaning the judge ruled in favor of the other side because our side had not presented enough evidence to support our claim. The outcome was extremely devastating, especially after being told at the beginning that we had a “strong case.” After nearly two years, substantial legal fees, stress, and time invested in this case, we were left feeling that we had not received the preparation, guidance, or representation we expected from our attorney. In the end, we walked away with absolutely nothing except huge legal bills. I am sharing our experience because potential clients deserve to hear what our experience was like before deciding whether to hire Jeff Frasier. Based on our personal experience, we do not recommend him.
Mike and Natalya worked diligently and effectively on a clients estate sale. Their efficiency and attention to detail did not go unnoticed by myself or the client. Highly recommended!
My attorney was fired by the group, then they replaced him for my case with another attorney. The replacement attorney is very unhelpful and adversarial. I think he’s irritated that he got stuck with my case. He didn’t even know what state my case was in and sent me case law that was not even correct. but happy to charge me! Not pleases with this representation.
