Was directed to this firm by the Veterans Administration, and I also emailed them. No response at all. Forget trying to call, it will just direct you to the website. If this is a law firm that the VA is using to "help" veterans.....this is then a wasted cause.

A lawyer calls u but u have to have all blocks, unknown caller off on your phone and when u miss them u can't get a call back

Awesome people! Love what they do for the community!

This experience was terrible. To reach out to an organization meant to help and be belittled and accused of being hostile for asking questions is absurd. My application was refused by management and I would not suggest this non profit because they are not in the business of helping people obviously just to receive state funds. Also was not allowed to place a complaint. Absolutely a nightmare

Never had an opportunity to speak with anyone even though I tried several times.

Receptionist was very nice. She had Excellent Customer Service! She needs A Least a $2.00 raise . Very Helpful she took time to tell me who to call for the advice I need a love one . Went Above and beyond!

I came across this website and was so happy I did!! The attorneys here are very attentive and are the absolute best. Working for free is not easy and it truly means so much to the community. Thank you for advocating for us and winning this small victory nonetheless. It takes a special individual to offer services free of charge with such great expertise and for that, I am forever grateful.

I believe it is just a make up to shine up Houston lawyers gray features. They will not help and they will not get involved unless there is a possible, quick and foreseeable settlement needs to be signed so that they can have a share. I called and answered the many questions, and at the end no one is willing to listen, forget about understanding. They are just worst than the court appointed lawyers. Save your time and seek God´s help and other source´s help.

Visited the site, got approved and and was notified when I had a telephone conference with an attorney. It was supposed to be between 2:00pm and 5:00 pm. I began my wait at 2:00 o’clock and waited up to 5:00 o’clock. Received a reminder earlier but during the time for the appointment NO ONE called or texted that I was rescheduled. I really needed their assistance and got nothing. The last experience I encountered with Volunteer Lawyers on this same issue is that after posting this review, a lawyer or an attorney [the two are different], not sure which, called, left a message saying it was in response to my request for legal advice. This professional did not leave a valid phone number to return the call, and redialing the same number I got no answer nor did the recording revealed whose number it was. I even sent a text message to the number.That individual never called back. I did received an email with 2-3 law firm names interested in my case. I reached out to one of the firm, spoke with someone, I do not believe it was a lawyer. Since I only had a few supposedly free minutes to discuss my legal issue, right away I asked for a legal term to be defined. The person instead proceeded to tell me that the Firm would work up a document explaining their legal fees and obligations. When I received it I was to sign it and send it back. I suppose then maybe I would have been invited for a face-to-face paid consultation. I did Google these firms to look at the lawyers education, bar certification, years of practice, etc. The profiles were revealing. In conclusion, my personal experience lead me to the opinion that perhaps most of the legal professionals who volunteer their time to this organization want to do a good public service. I was not fortunate enough to connect with one of these. However, it also seems that there are some who only use this affiliation as a good way to find paying clients and to strengthen their legal profile.
