Geller Conrad Duvel LLP

I scheduled free consultation with Lawrence H.Geller.
I needed help and advice .It was extremely difficult time for me, and I had couple questions that could really help me, and my situation. As soon the attorney find out that my financial situation is not good, and that I might not use his service after all I got a call from them, and my appointment was canceled. I never had a chance to talk to him…

All I have are positive things to say about Christian Conrad. From the moment I first met him I was impressed. He is down to earth, knowledgeable, helpful and most importantly honest. He doesn’t spin things to please you– with him you always get the truth. I cannot imagine going through what we have gone through (a very scary custody battle) without him. He is unlike any other attorney I have ever met– he actually cares about you and your case. He treats you like a person and not just a paycheck.
I would also like to add that his assistant Arlene is so sweet, understanding and is there to support you in any way. Hiring Christian and his team was the best thing I EVER did!

Being a family law attorney, specifically divorce, has got to be a tough gig because a lot of the result relies on the courts, the judge and the mediators. Having a great attorney helps, but ultimately, if things end up in court you have to have faith in law, and the judge to hear your out. I have had a lengthy divorce, and wish I would have hired Christian from the beginning. I paid a different attorney over three thousand dollars to handle the divorce and got mediocre service at best, they did not advise me on what I should do, and I basically did the work and they filed the paperwork. I hired Christian to fix the errors that they made on my original paperwork to finalize things. Although I have not had much communication with him his assistant Morgan has been an amazing help. Not only does she listen to me rant about the frustration and anxiety that come with divorce, she is extremely efficient, organized and thorough. Although things are not finalized yet, I am very happy with the service I have received. I feel like their fees are fair, and explained well. There are still some lose ends that need to be tied before everything is final, but I expect that things will continue to go smoothly.

Christian did a great job handling my case. He was extremely knowledgeable about the relevant issues, and was always very straightforward and up front with his opinion. He listened to my concerns and he worked hard to get me the outcome we hoped for. I couldn’t have asked for more.

This is my first review ever on Unilocal.I used Geller Conrad and wanted to wait a few months before reviewing them. I thought maybe after time, my disappointment would go down and I would realize they somehow did more for me than I had originally thought. This is not the case. First off, Christian is a nice guy and seems to tell things how they are. However in the free consultation, I was quoted a price that was literally half of what I wound up paying. My case never made it to court and I only met with my actual attorney once. There was no reason for my case to wind up costing what it did and I truly feel ripped off. When asked why my case was costing so much, I was told that I could fire them if I wanted… Well yes, I did want to fire them, but I was down so much money already, there was no way that I could afford another attorney. I feel that the representation was mediocre at best. In fact, I would go as far to say that if you want to completely loose your case on all fronts, hire Mr. Conrad. He was the best thing to happen to my ex. I feel like he was always reactive instead of proactive, which put us in a poor negotiating position. When my case was finished, I never received a call to say hello or congrats. In fact, I never heard from Christian again, only the receptionist asking for money. I understand that there are a lot of things about our justice system that Christian can not control but for the price I paid, I felt that I was getting a lawyer that would fight for me and could go toe to toe with other agencies and come out ahead. I feel Christian rolled over, played dead and got paid generously to do so
PS: I actually wound up paying more to my ex after hiring my lawyer than I had previously negotiated with her before in mediation. My ex’s lawyer was one of those «bad» flat rate lawyers that seemed to school Christian every chance he got.

I have never been a huge fan of reviews but I received the best heart warming reception from start to finish, and literally the receptionist was awesome I forgot her name sorry, but Christian!!! Now, I can not tell you how down to earth this guy is and does not give you the feeling that I had when interviewing other lawyers. He was warm, hospitable, and just really wanted to help Me! Wow! What a surprise
Again not big on reviews so I don’t know what I should say next !
But seriously Christian Conrad is the MAN!

This office is only out for the money. They are grouchy people throughout the entire business, and are the worst attorney’s and absolutely the worst legal assistants I have ever encountered. They basically did nothing for me and charged me 3 thousand dollars. I had to go to a new attorney and pay all over again. zero stars honestly. All they care about is the money. Mr Geller and his legal assistant Allison specifically were not helpful and did nothing, expecting to be paid for same. They did not listen, did not produce documents that were by any means complete, or usable.

My experience with this firm was anything but rewarding. They were terrible! The most argumentative I found them was when it came to my bill… and yelling at me… other than that I never felt they were on my side or working hard for me.
Feel I received very poor advice and always told to take the path of least resistance to push my file through and make their job easy
.
Literally this last go round was all of 2 weeks… no face to face visits, 3 phone calls and they submitted one form, that I negociated, and they charged me $ 4,000 seriously… Of course when I called to ask about it, maybe a little common sense, it was all double speak and lawyer bs…$ 4K for one form submitted to court… not making this up…
Could not be more dissappointed in a law firm or the representation I recieved… especially for the price… geez.
I would not recommend them to anyone, and my friend experienced the same type of service I recieved… There are plenty of good lawyers out there that will actually fight for you and bill you fairly, I suggest you find one of them. So bad

Worth every penny. And it’s quite a few pennies. Great family law attorneys, highly recommended.
