I retained council from KEL Attorneys on Jan. 11, 2016 for a property dispute between me anad co-owner, Debbie Mazzochi.

 

I paid KEL a retainer fee of $950.00 which was debited from my bank account on the same daay, ( 01/11/2016). Since that time one Demand Letter was SUPPOSELY sent out by attorney, Trenton Leigh on January 26, 2016 as CERTIFY, RETURN, RECEIPT, which means it must be signed for before delivery.

In the meantime, I receice a letter from KEL, written on March 1, 2016, informing me that my, attorney Trenton Leigh has left the KEL firm and do I still wish for KEL to represent me.  And I said yes and returned the form letter to them on 3/5/2016.

 

Also on March 5th, I spoke with a Crystal Joseph, para-legal, ( #813-386-6251 Extension #7323 ) and she turn the phone conversation over to a Mr. Garrett who said in order to pursue this case I would need to send the $2,500.00 more to begin ligagations.  I asked if the "Demand Letterr" was sign for and he couldn't  tell me . I ended the conversation and asked that this be investigated before anymore monies are sent.

On April 5,2016, I spoke with a Shakena Lester, para-legal, (#813-386-6251 Ext. #7323) and she informed me that Mr. Garrett has also left the firm and that she would have to read the physical file and would call me back the next day and advise me as to which attorney will be handling my case.  Also I needed to know if the "Demand Letter", was actually sent out CERTIFIED, RETURN, RECEIPT.  Because if Ms. Mazzoclhi did not sign for this letter than she is unaware that a suit is being filed against her,  Shakena said she would look into this also. 

 

I've emailed Ms. Lester twice since April 5th without any response.

 

To sum it all up :  It has been Four months,  three attorneys , two para-legals , three phone calls and two emails and NO REPRESENTATION.

 

I have lost all confidence in KEL Attorneys and would like my retainer of $950.00 refunded to me.
