I had a lot of questions and concerns, and Daniel was patient and clear every step of the way. He explained things in a way I could understand and didn’t make me feel rushed or judged. I’m very grateful for the help I received from Daniel and his team.

I could never get past making an appointment. First they scheduled an phone consultation on a Sunday then called back later to a Monday office visit then I received an email moving it back to a phone consultation so I called and asked which it was going to be and they couldn’t tell me so I just canceled the whole thing and I am looking for another attorney.

Response from owner

We’re sorry for the confusion you experienced. Our scheduling system included two brief appointments—the first to review details with the attorney and the second to complete the process. The available times were adjusted only to make sure the attorney could personally meet with you. We understand how frustrating scheduling changes can be and appreciate your feedback as we continue improving communication. —Daniel S. Pickens, Attorney

$150 CONSULTATION FEE . FOR A LAWYER FRESH OUT OF LAW SCHOOL? UNBELIEVABLE. THEY SHOULD ADVERTISE THIS TO SAVE PEOPLES TIME AT LEAST.

Response from owner

Thank you for your feedback, Pete. Our firm offers free consultations for certain matters such as personal injury, estate planning, probate, and business formations. For other legal issues, including the one you inquired about, there is a $150 consultation fee, which our team explains during scheduling. We believe in transparency and never advertise free consultations for matters where a fee applies.<br><br>If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us directly at 256-434-1678.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Review I had an excellent experience working with Daniel S. Pickens Law during my uncontested divorce. They were patient, professional, and understanding throughout the entire process. My ex-wife requested several changes to the paperwork, and the firm handled each revision quickly and without frustration. Communication was prompt, and they always made sure I understood the next steps. Going through a divorce is never easy, but their responsiveness and professionalism made a difficult situation much smoother. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking a firm that truly values its clients and handles matters with care and efficiency.

Paying an attorney $300 an hour only to make you feel disrespected as if he's more important than my legal problems isn't something I'm willing to do a third time. I gave this attorney 2 chances. The first time I had to pay Uber to his office because I'm disabled, he didn't even show up and his answering service could not reach him. The second time I scheduled an appointment which his office rescheduled however another attorney called me at our appointment time. So this attorney not only rescheduled my appointment but also did not show up for the time I paid him for. Ny legal matters are very serious! It's so disrespectful for an attorney to treat a potential client like this? Apparently this man can only be bothered if you have a case that is going to bring him a good sum of money. How lucky attorneys get to pick and choose who they work for. I wasted too much of my time on this guy. I have no respect for him at all!

Response from owner
