Laurence A. Deplaza - DePlaza & O'Connor www.deplazafamilylaw.com SCAM ARTISTS FRAUD ALERT REVIEWS

This law firm located in Plano, TX are total fraud artists, they don't pay there bills and lie through there teeth to people.

They hired our company on May 20, 2013 to do some legal services work on behalf of one of there clients, payment was was due on receipt (we went against our better judgement and didn't get credit card payment upfront since we have never heard of them and had no relationship with them).

We have called and emailed them, they have ignored us and haven't paid us. They give us excuse after excuse and totally unprofessional as you can be.

We have reported this law firm to the Texas Better Business Burea (BBB), Texas Attorney General's office, Texas Bar Association and filing small claims case against them with our own lawyer. We hope lawyers like this get disbarred and it's why 90% people can't stand sleazy no ethics lawyers in this country!

We hope this review helps people looking to hire or get hired from this firm to stay away. Thanks

I love this Firm, and I couldn't recommend them more highly! I found them to be very ethical with their billing practices as a client. 
 
I'm not sure what the other review is speaking of. Sounds like a dispute over nonpayment for services that may or may not have been rendered, or something? I know, I've not paid when I've received horrible service. I can't know if that's the case, but it certainly is possible. 
 
I thought it only fair to post my review of this firm here. I can only speak as a previous client of the firm. Yes! I'm gushing, but that's how pleased I am!:) 
 
 DePlaza and his staff are outstanding!
 
I think the most important thing I can share is how very experienced DePlaza is, and that he's phenomenal in the courtroom.
 
If you're in distress because you have had incompetent representation that has made your case a disaster, you can expect a "Hail Mary" turnaround with Deplaza on your team.
 
From the very beginning, it was evident that each and every one of DePlaza's staff, sincerely cared for the interest of my child, and not just about me as a paying client.
 
I cannot begin to express my gratitude to Mr. DePlaza, and his staff.
 
I've had the unfortunate fate of being in serious litigation, that spanned over a decade. I've had more attorneys than any poor soul should ever have to have, and our case was likely one of the most complex cases one could ever choose to represent.
 
Hands down, DePlaza was "BY FAR" the best attorney I've ever had!
 
In the past, I was often in despair, because attorneys would neglect our family's very serious case, to give their entire attention to their high-profile cases. We sadly discovered that division of millions was more important to them than a hurting child.
 
With my past attorneys, I felt very alone, as if I was simply a paycheck. Past attorneys were inaccessible, with a complete lack of empathy or concern.
 
In stark contrast, DePlaza was the most accessible attorney I've ever had, with a cheerful office manager that answers immediately, directing your calls accordingly.
 
DePlaza never goes on holiday when your case needs attention. I remember when he was in his office on a Sunday working on my case, and that was on Thanksgiving weekend! I really teared up when he called during the Thanksgiving Holiday. I was so moved by his devotion. It was more than I could've ever thought possible. I had never had an attorney that actually cared before, I had come to believe they didn't exist.
 
DePlaza is the only attorney that has ever given me their personal cell phone number. DePlaza even answered an urgent after hours call, while at dinner party. That's how much he cares about his clients!
 
DePlaza's legal secretary is spectacular! Lisa is exceptionally gifted at what she does. Lisa does most of the paperwork and orders. Lisa is fast and efficient, which saved me money! Lisa is the warmest, most kind person you'll ever meet, and that really meant a lot to me, because we had to work together on some difficult issues, and her calming nature helped keep me calm.
 
DePlaza has decades of experience, and he is the most efficient attorney I've ever employed. He knows what he's doing, and he works with precision and speed. Thus, I didn't get charged the ridiculously, long hours other attorneys often charged me to research what they should have learned in law school, and that saved me a lot of money!
 
DePlaza is a machine in the courtroom. Deplaza has a powerful presence. He's an intense and aggressive individual, with incredible litigation skills. You'd be hard-pressed to find anyone with more passion or intensity when fighting for their clients.
 
DePlaza was emotionally invested, and deeply cared about the wellbeing of my child, and that zeal and passion made all the difference in the world.
 
This protective mom is forever grateful for our champion Laurence DePlaza, and our family is so very thankful to have found such an incredibly loyal, devoted and skilled attorney.
