Marshall Law Evictions

I sued his client and subpoenaed him as their representative (his client lives out of state) to provide documents I would need for the lawsuit. I was there when the subpoena was served and witnessed the papers literally being placed in Mr. Marshall’s hands so I know for a fact he got them.
As we were leaving, he demanded a $ 300.00 fee to come to court. I told him to read the paperwork he had just been given; he did not have to come to court, he was required to turn over documents. In the paperwork I gave him, I generously included a clause for postage and copies that allowed him to bill me $ 25.00 for providing the documents. He did not have to go to court, all he had to do was mail the required information (a 15 – 20 page contract that should be in his files) and he had nearly four weeks to mail it.
There is no legal requirement I pay him for postage or for making copies– lawyers bill their clients for those services and I am not his client – but I did it anyway to expedite things. Mr. Marshall never showed up in court and the documents never arrived… yet he had the NERVE to bill me nearly $ 80, not $ 25.
Before paying the bill I asked him to produce some sort of proof he actually sent what the court ordered he send. I told him the certified letter tracking information or a fax receipt would do. I assume he could not provide anything because he vanished at that point and never produced any proof. He vanished when questioned and two months later neither me nor the court have received the documents he was required by law to send. For those reasons I never paid his bill… but that is not the point. THE POINT HERE IS THIS:
MR. MARSHALL BILLED ME FOR SERVICES HE OBVIOUSLY DID NOT PERFORM. AS FURTHER EVIDENCE THAT HE DID NOT PERFORM THIS SERVICE, HE DISAPPEARED WHEN CHALLENGED TO PROVIDE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION FOR THE BILL.
IT IS A CRIME TO BILL FOR SERVICES THAT WERE NOT PROVIDED.
What kind of crooked lawyer actually BREAKS the law?

We hired Daniel Marshall to represented us as landlords, we had a completely nightmare. We could not have choose better than him!
When we were feeling hopeless, He gave us confidence since the first moment. He knows his business
He is very professional and helped us through the entire ordeal, always very helpful, available and fast to respond, with a lot of acknowledge about evictions, very affordable and best of all he negotiated our case so well that he avoid us to go to trial and prolong our nightmare. He gave to us the best, fastest and easier solution to our problem.
We highly recommended Daniel Marshall and his legal team, He exceed our expectations and saved to us a lot of money and headaches
And for all of that we will always being grateful!!!

I had a real problem with two tenants. It was difficult to find someone I could trust and feel confident in; I found that in Mr. Marshall. After reading many reviews and sites for eviction attorneys I initially chose a different attorney. After not hearing back from my first choice I emailed Mr. Marshall at 9 p.m. on a Friday; he responded within an hour and we had an appointment set for Monday. I instantly felt confident in Mr. Marshall and never lost that confidence through my entire experience of evicting two tenants. I don’t like to feel helpless in any situation, but an eviction can definitely make you feel that way. So all I can say is «THANK YOU MR. MARSHALL» for removing my concerns AND TENANTS!

I had a very unfortunate situation with the worst tenants ever and I am so happy I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Daniel Marshal. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and known by the court. I felt very comfortable to be represented by him. He is very down to Earth professional and at the same time very aggressive which I was hoping for. He was very approachable and easy to work with. Mr. Marshal took all of my calls and text messages and responded to all of my e-​mails on a very timely manner. Thank you very much Mr. Marshall! So glad I had the opportunity to work with you. Time is money and for us, landlords can be really detrimental. Good luck, everyone!

I had a roommate issue arise while I was deployed to the Middle East and sought out legal assistance to file my Unlawful Detainer and to evict her from my home in August 2014. Being on the other side of the world, I was desperate and looked to Unilocal for a lawyer who would help me. Unfortunately, all the reviews must have been false. All the negative reviews about Daniel Marshall are 100% accurate. When it came to getting paid, he was all over it. When it came time to settle the case– he was no where to be found.
When I returned from deployment in November, I informed him I was back and would like to settle this case as soon as possible so it could all be water under the bridge. The first meeting he informed me of wasn’t until March– after multiple attempts at phone calls and emails for updates– all of which were unanswered. I emailed him on the way to the meeting in March to inform him I wasn’t able to print out the requested paperwork– and he promptly sent me this email: «I have 4 court appearances today. Opposing counsel knew that– Don’t worry they did NO FORMAL NOTICE OR SUBPOENA so if you are there you can leave.» This was all a ruse– the opposing counsel DID all her due diligence– and he made me look like the one who was being difficult.
My old roommate and I spoke in the parking lot this day and she ask why I was dragging everything out and being difficult. I explained to her what my lawyer was telling me– and she responded he was telling her lawyer I was still on deployment– 4 months after I had returned– and he missed ALL the court appearances regarding our case.
After all this headache, I sought the counsel of an attorney friend who helped me fire him and continue on the case on my own. When I emailed him with my dissatisfaction on April 1^st, this was his response: «I am sorry if you feel this way. I am changing my QC on cases that are converted. I also plan to not to take on smaller cases that are no longer in dispute as to possession, as I am in court too often on possession cases. The date of your depo, I had 4 court matters. I HAD asked opposing counsel NOT to schedule on Fridays as the bigger Hall of Justice case judges have their scheduling conferences in the morning. She is not a civil litigator, so she just went forward with a Friday.» Nothing but excuses from him. I sent him the paperwork for substitution of attorney on April 2^nd and he sent it back the same day– showing how ready he was to be rid of me after taking over $ 1200 of my hard earned money for nothing. My new counsel filed the paperwork the same day– April 2^nd.
On the 22^nd, I received this email from him «Your legal services assistant or you failed to file a substitution of attorney with the court. As you were previously informed and papers were provided and thus you know there is a motion hearing today at 1:30. I have filed the substitution of attorney and have provided the substitution of attorney to the department clerk.» regarding my substitution– which was ALSO a lie.
So to make a LONG story short– NEVER use this man or you will be drug through the mud and will be out a lot of money for no work. He’s a crook and should lose his license.

Mr. Marshall can get you furious very fast. Once he has your money, he’ll not answer your calls. In the trial day He got late to the court. After the judgment, he fail to file the papers with the sheriff. Finally we decided to take our question and concerns to another lawyer.

I won’t go into detail because the review will get taken down in a couple days, but he hasn’t done anything useful to help us. Under-​quoted and overcharged, so can pocket our money and not do his job.

Strongly caution: In my opinion whenever I see allot of positive revues for someone like this its proof that the lions share of the reviews are fake, posted by friends or family or in most cases by the person themselves.
If you like being led by false promises, wasting your time & money, being lied to & not completing your objectives. Then look no further you have found your dream representation.
The worst court representation I have ever seen. He didn’t bother to show up himself so he sent his under study (absolute joke). He was reprimanded by the judge several times & it was clear he did no preparation prior to court and has zero dedication to his craft ! He was stumbling over his words, looked nervous and couldn’t answer direct questions from either the judge or defendant. It was like a scene right out of a movie, so laughable your saying to yourself ‘this can’t be real’ ! He was dressed very UN-​professional for court, I feel he was even under dressed for a parent teacher conference !! Also, like others have stated in their reviews ‘Do not pay upfront’, I have a feeling you will be eternally regretting that decision. I feel a common house fly could have represented me better & I wouldn’t have been relieved of so much money in the process, not to mention time, stress & aggravation. The only way someone could do a job that bad is if they are trying to do so, even a bum off the street could formulate better sentences & appear less ridiculous !! Needless to say I walked out of court shocked and in total devastation.
I wish I would just lied to myself, set fire to my cash & just left the tenant in place, I could have saved myself a ton of time & stress. Because that essentially was the end result.
Looking back I wish I wouldn’t have made an emotional decision & allowed myself to be led by false promises & used car salesman tactics. Its like the old saying ‘let the buyer beware’ !! Do your research, get proper referrals, sift through all the fake revues and read between the lines so to speak. Do not make a hasty decision like I did thinking & believing a bunch of BS, there are good attorneys out there, in my opinion this is not one of them !

CAUTON !!! CAUTION !!! CAUTION !!!
I was forced to rate him with one star otherwise I would give minus 200 rating.
DO NOT PAY THIS PERSON THE WHOLE AMOUNT UP FRONT, pay partial see his performance then pay the rest.
I paid the full eviction cost $ 850 and I was promised that if my tenant leave I will get $ 250 back.
paper work took forever to serve and my tenant left before they get to serve her so I called to get my $ 250 back NO ANSWER, I sent so many emails NO ANSWER, I left 4 messages with his assistant NO ANSWER, I had to take a trip to his office to ask him to refund my money, he said I DONT HAVE $ 250 in my bank account come back tomorrow I got so mad, I told him NO i need my money now he screamed at me saying I DONT HAVE MONEY come back tomorrow and I will pay you $ 300 because you seem a very trouble lady, I made him write a signed letter that he will pay me the next day $ 300 and I got my refund the next day.
I believe all people who rated this person with negative reviews are telling the truth about him, and all people who wrote the good reviews are either his family or he paid them to write nice review about him.
I will be filling a complaint against him with the BAR association tomorrow just to teach this person how to respect his clients.

Marshall’s «representation» cost me a ridiculous amount of money due to what he called «court delays.» I feel so betrayed. You try to hire a lawyer to HELP you, but Daniel did just the opposite. He sabotaged my case so that it would have to go to trial, so that he could make more money off of me. He told me he was going to default my tenants when they didn’t answer, but he didn’t get around to it in time. When they filed the answer two days late, we had to go to trial, which meant more money to Daniel. I had to badger him for updates on my case, sometimes not even hearing a return response for almost 2 weeks. He was also late to the trial and did not file my final paperwork for almost a month after the judgement because of his «court delays.» Unfortunately I did not find out about all of his lies until I went to the Court to see what the hold up was. I found out he never filed my papers. Also, when I tried to make an appointment to discuss my case with him he said, in his own words, he is «a trial lawyer not on call.» If you have already hired him, please verify at the Hall of Justice anything he has said he did for you, because likely it did not happen when he promised. Do not make my mistake of trusting him. He is the reason lawyers have a bad name.

I posted a review some time ago, and I see it has been taken down — how does that happen, Unilocal?I am a senior citizen and used no profane language nor overly derogatory remarks and only wrote about facts as I had observed them in writing or confirmed them, in person, at the courthouse. I gave my opinion regarding performance and fees based on my prior experience working in a law office. I prepared the review honestly and thoughtfully about the poor performance of this attorney. I take the time to write good reviews when they are warranted, but balance them with poor reviews when they are deserved. If you find my unfavorable reviews unsatisfactory, then please remove all my reviews — favorable or unfavorable — because they have all been written with the same thoughtfulness.

++++++ UP FRONT & REASONABLE PRICES +++++
— The job gets done !!
— Communication has never been a problem with Mr Marshall.
— I have used this Law firm and results were exactly what I was told by Law firm — No hidden fees. Thank you

The only reason this Hack is getting my one star is because there isnb’t a star lower on the scale. This thief cares more about taking your money than he does winning a case for you. I’m not sure why there are 5 star ratings for him other than it could possibly be reviews from his friends. Sorry I thought this imbecile could be of help to an issue but at least I can warn others to keep far from him. He’s worthless other than taking unearned money.

This lawyer cost my friend lots of money due to his inability to complete paperwork. He has refused to refund lawyer fees. I would not recommend him to anyone.

I recently had to do an eviction, and when I needed to take it to court Mr. Marshall was highly recommended to me.
Mr. Marshall accepted my case and was very professional in handling all paper work and was very good at keeping me informed. If I had a question of any kind I got an answer promptly.
I can not Thank him and his team enough !
If I ever need to do this again, I will with out hesitation call Marshall Law Evictions.
I would recommend Marshall Law to anyone looking for someone you can trust.

Daniel,
It is easy to see why Marshall Law is so successful. From a vantage point of the tenant, your willingness to support the under dawg has proven to me and I’m sure many others, you are– indeed a man of Character. Knowing all aspects of the eviction ballgame, Marshall Law is a ringer for those who seek a true professional.
I highly recommend Mr. Marshall, Daniel is the kick-​butt attorney that you need in your line-​up! Simply put «Homerun»!
Thanks Again,
WMH

What do we look for as owners or management companies? when it comes to evictions?
* Risk Management (it may not seem like the path you want to take but «risk management» is paramount) however, you have to believe in Mr. Marshall’s path as his vast knowledge is in your best interest.
* To be kept up to date on your case
* Fully understand through communication — You know when you get that feeling where you need assurance, an e-​mail and you will be getting your question (s) answered.

The steps to getting back what’s rightfully yours is a process that has to be respected and I was able to take the next step as I sought guidance to the end of knowing the process.
* Marshall Law Evictions stays tuned in to all changes that occur in the Court System and it changes often and not always the way you want it to. so cut your losses and allow Mr. Marshall to provide you with the absolute best Risk Management in the County.

Marshall Law is outstanding, exceeded our expectations as a landlord in an eviction. Daniel is easy to work with, he follows through and returns phone calls immediately and his fees are very reasonable. His representation in Court was professional, he was respected by the Judge. We highly recommend Marshall Law.

I had a great experience. It was very inexpensive to evict a tenant. Had a terrible situation where someone was staying at my place and I couldn’t get them out even tho the person wasn’t on the lease. So I called Daniel Marshall and charged me $ 150 and the person was served that very same day. Great experience !

Marshall Law Evictions is an excellent resource for those homeowners and landlords who have delinquent or troublesome tenants. Daniel is a respected and experienced real estate lawyer who works hard for his clients and gives them the attention and results they deserve. Daniel has superb communication skills and gladly walks clients through the tedious and complicated litigation process. I would recommend Marshall Law Evictions to my clients.
