Atlantic Coast Law

UNETHICAL!! RUN !! Addison settled my case without consulting me. Then didnt tell me for MONTHS! RUN!!!! Ethics violators!!! Just found out 5/29/19, that Addison settled our 1yr old lawsuit against a former landlord. We had video of said landlord pumping raw sewage under our rental and into a public waterway!!! We had video of him admitting a few illegal things. We had his health dept. Violation info. WE HAD WON at the lower court level. We were asking for (and received, but never notified of) a JURY trial like we wanted!! We had former tenants disposed and ready to testify. BUT GUESS WHAT!? AFTER CALLING AND CALLING ATLANIC LAW FIRM FINALLY decided to take our call to update us on our case. When they showed us the settlement check (which was our deposit and rent, no damages, no port-a-potty rental fees, no moving expenses) the check was DATED APRIL 8, 2019. Now, keep in mind, it's now May 29th,2019. So they settled at least 2 MONTHS AGO!!!!!! We we're told when we asked why we were never notified? "I must have called the wrong number". WHAT PROFESSIONALS DO THAT!!?? They had 4 (FOUR) numbers to reach us at and 2 (TWO) emails. Funny, they never had a problem calling or emailing before. I will be filing a GRIEVANCE with the NC State Bar, and hiring a NEW attorney. Oh, and when I went to the office and was (admittedly upset) Addison kicked me out. Told me "get out of my office, get out of my building." His receptionist "Sue" walked by and made nasty comments. That woman is a disaster and cant get her job right either. Why didnt SHE advise of the court date!?!? IT'S HER JOB. Addison has thrown temper tantrums before, going as far as implying a threat to me. I am disabled and dont hear well, I have to record my phone conversations to replay because half the time I miss quit a bit. When I called Addison out once for his questionable behaviour towards our case he told me "If you've been recording me, we're gonna have a problem." Run! RUN! RUN! Addison is a green attorney with an atitude. We are a Marine family, 27yrs, and our "brother" sold us out!

I hired Nick as an defense attorney recently and initially we had a consultation first. He seemed to be mostly on the same page as me his potential client at this time. Two weeks later after hiring him and only having one (1 hour and 15 minute) phone call and just a few emails that we sent back and forth. He talked to me like he was working for the plantiff. Also I feel that I was taking complete advantage of by the outrageous charges for his very brief time spent on my case before I removed him as counsel for me.

When I called with a couple questions, Susan went above and beyond to help me even though they did not charge me for the time she spent helping me! Unbelievable and unselfish customer service! Would highly recommend Susan and Atlanta Coast Law to anybody!
