Michele Loughrey was pleasure to work with and was an effective quarterback on our case. When there were questions that weren't in her specific area of expertise she brought in the right people so we always had the right set of eyes on the issue. It is definitely a team approach at H&J!
Not impressed with the professionalism or the lack thereof. Went through multiple lawyers on my case having to start from ground zero each time. A few even left the firm in the middle of it. Strange. Seemed very proud to write up fees without anything in return. I would Not recommend.
When I needed an attorney over the last few years I always turned to Hellmuth & Johnson. I have used them for both personal or business manners. I have also referred many friends, relatives and colleagues to Mr. Hellmuth. I highly recommend them for any legal issues you might have.
Great company. I have used them a couple of times and it is nice that they have lawyers with different specialties.
Similar experience to the one Alex had. These guys do not work in your interest.
The lawyer was communicate me via phone calls 2 or 3 times a day.
after signing a contract and got paid for his retainer he talk to me 0 times.
i had to find different lawyer that not ignore your phone calls after getting paid.
We ve used Hellmuth & Johnson for both personal and our three businesses. Friends who I ve referred to them have thanked me and raved about their work. They are great people, professionals and their responsiveness is the best I ve experienced.
H&J has done exemplary work for both my company and myself. They have developed several corporate documents for our board, and reviewed several contracts for us, limiting our legal exposure. On a personal level, they created an estate plan and revocable trust for me to ensure my family/assets are protected and my final wishes are carried out when that day comes. I recommend them on a regular basis and will continue doing so.
I have worked with Hellmuth & Johnson for years. David Hellmuth is very responsive and will make sure the situation you are in, gets handled timely and effectively. I most recently have had them put together a Family Trust, the process was very clear and professional.
I highly recommend reaching out to H&J for any legal matter.
Great construction seminar! So informative. Every speaker was very good at what they did! Thanks for the breakfast and lunch and for the resources and 7 contractor credits!
Hellmuth & Johnson helped me review a non-solicitation clause as I was transitioning in my career. I was very happy with the timeliness and knowledge that they shared with me. They made me comfortable to pursue my next career move. I plan on using them again for any legal issues I may run into. Thanks H&J!
Have only visited and it is a beautiful building. Very friendly staff and attorneys.
Unfortunately, I had to close my business due to Covid-19. I received a recommendations to H&J law firm from a trusted professional I work with. The person he recommended passed me off to EC. I was told they could help me reduce my liability with my commercial lease by 72% and it would cost me between 2.5K and 3K. The communication and response time was non-existent. I sent emails and made phone calls that did not ever get a response. My landlord filed an eviction which I notified the firm of and they almost missed it and put me in a bad situation. It was handled but not without a ton of stress.... The amount I paid out was not reduced at all by the help of this firm. I paid 77% of the remaining lease and gave my keys up 7 months early and I paid approximately 7K to the law firm. That being said I could have just as well used legal zoom and represented myself to the landlord. Not impressed and not happy with the outcome. Very poor quality considering what they charge and what their building looks like.
Blake Nelson was very generous with his time and resourceful .. Much appreciated his knowledge and detail
Very inattentive at this location. Staff is quite rude and take serious matters very auspiciously. I would go with someone who takes a shorter period of time in-between the messages that they charge so much for writing.
I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Alex Mueller on multiple projects in differing fields; namely the film industry and the nonprofit sector. Whether it s writing clear and concise contracts for Emmy-nominated directors or nondisclosure agreements for board members, Alex Mueller embodies integrity, accuracy, and efficiency. Alex Mueller is brilliant, provides terrific advice, and always uses sound judgment.
Personal injury lawyer Christopher Sall backed me into a corner, did not accept their low settlement offer and then he dropped me. Bad lawyers that will screw you.
Great and responsive firm. I have worked with Hellmuth & Johnson both personally and professionally. They put a Trust together for my family several years ago, and have been instrumental in bringing value to the townhome and condo associations I work with.
I hired this law firm to represent me in a forced sale. I nearly fired them very early on. I asked my attorney to file the paperwork he advised me that he did. I was able to check the court filings on line and didn't see any filings on my behest. I contacted the attorney and he had assured me the case was filed , This happened twice finally telling him three times and 2 or 3 months later the case was actually filed.This showed me the ethics of this attorney were not very good. I had contacted several law firms to get a replacement firm in sight. Most of them said it could be detrimental to my case to change firms. I was advised prior to beginning the case the cost would be about 10,000 to 15,000 dollars if the case went all the way to trial. The case stopped way short of trial and it cost me over 17000.00. Even on the months that there was no or very limited contact between my attorney and i or my attorney and the opposing counsel, I was charged between 4 and 5 hours of attorney time (approx $1500- $1700). I have a strong background in auditing so I asked my attorney to send anything that would show a paper trail of the cost. All that I received was copies of previous bills and nothing to substantiate their bills. I was also billed for a filing fee and was told that that was for a previous case that my attorney represented me in for a case that was prior to him joining this law firm. I would never use this law firm or law firm again. I would advise anyone else to steer very clear of this firm also.
I have worked with Hellmuth and Johnson many time, and in particular with Joel Hilgendorf. I can't say enough good things. He is well versed in our ByLaws and Policy documents and always provides concise, relevant, matter-of-fact information in relation to our COA procedures in a friendly way. Highly recommended.
Hired Earl Cohen to do a simple transfer of a trust to a new trustee. He somehow though I was stupid and tried to charge me SIXTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS for basically boilerplate paperwork.
I got it done elsewhere for $1500.
Calling this Jerk a Scumbag would be an understatement.
RUN!
For those looking for business transaction services, Helmuth & Johnson are top notch. From sell side representation, buy side representation or neutral closing services, H&J meets the needs of my Clients every time. Chad Johnson and Kristin Mickelson are particularly exceptional however, I've heard similar statements for all their attorneys. I strongly recommend using H&J if you are a buying or selling a business and need legal assistance.
I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with David Hellmuth, Chad Johnson and a number of their legal staff over the years. They are experts in their fields and incredibly well connected in the local community.
