Mendenhall Law Group

I debated writing this review for over a year, but ultimately felt it was important to share my experience. Whether or not there was ill intent, the case I was involved in was handled very poorly in the end. At the beginning, we were assured that we would be compensated fairly. After two years of time, effort, and financial investment, the final settlement offer felt like a complete insult—especially given that it was tied to signing a non-disclosure agreement. The outcome was far below what had been discussed, and the expectations set early on were not met. What made it even more disheartening was how differently things felt at the start: there was significant media attention and optimism. But two years later, it seemed like no one really cared anymore, and those of us involved were left disappointed and discouraged. Looking back, I wish I had chosen a larger practice with more resources, as they may have been better equipped to handle the case effectively. It’s genuinely sad how things unfolded in the end. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this firm to others.

I reached out with a serious and urgent civil rights matter — an active HUD discrimination case involving retaliation, caregiver separation, emotional distress, and a trespass notice that cut me off from my own family. The attorney I spoke with asked just two questions: “Was there physical injury?” and “Was there property damage?” After that, it was made clear that they couldn’t help. There was no effort to understand the depth of my case — no concern for the emotional trauma, retaliation, or the federal protections involved. When you’re going through something this serious, you expect advocacy — not dismissal. If your case involves anything outside the typical injury/property box — like discrimination, family separation, or HUD retaliation — I recommend looking elsewhere.

Very professional and courteous. I’m impressed with Mr. Mendenhall and his team. Excellent.

In December 2020 I was involved in a motor vehicle accident. The person who had hit me had no insurance, was driving a car that didn’t belong to him, didn’t speak english, and didn’t live anywhere near where the accident occurred. Thanks to the folks at Mendenhall Law Group, specifically Frank and John. I was able to get the case settled and get the closure I needed thanks to them. 5/5 Stars would recommend.

Our family has used the services of Mendenhall Law Group three times in recent years for various needs. I don’t have adequate words to describe how awesome they are. Professional, yet extremely caring about each client and case. Frank worked very hard to help us. We so appreciate him. Highly recommend.

To my knowledge, Warner is the only attorney in the nation willing and able to help The People with our cases that will impact history. Thank you for your help with these historic filings.

Guy on phone acted like he didn't want to be there..

John was great to work with. Life happens and no 2 situations are ever the same so it was great to have someone who understands that by my side. Although my case wasn’t a high dollar job for him, he still took the time to make sure all the facts were presented and ultimately achieved what we set out to achieve. Highly recommend.

Great firm, grateful for all the hard work they’ve done for me. Frank is as professional as can be!

Unfortunately I was in a situation that I feel no one should go through. There were issues at a doctor’s office that I decided to try out that should have never taken place. Nonetheless, through the massive amount of stress it placed upon me for a couple of weeks, how I was treated as a person, and the amount of medical bills I had obtained, I reached out to John. John was extremely caring from the beginning. It is hard to find people in this world who genuinely care for others and their career. John is an example of one of these rare people. Instead of hearing me out and helping me, he actually wanted the best for me in this situation. It wasn’t simply just his ‘job’. The traits he possesses such as his work ethic, determination, and passion for others truly makes him excel in this career. If you are in need of someone who will honestly help you, please see John. I reviewed the letter he sent to the medical facility and was blown away. He has the ability to move people through his words and because he isn’t just doing it for an income, his words move people. Truly, an amazing lawyer. From the bottom of my heart, thank you John. Because of you not only will my charges at the facility be dropped, but you made a difference to the medical field. I was told that the facility is going to retrain their staff in this area and make sure that this doesn’t happen to anyone else.

The Mendehall Law Group well I've dealt with other Attorneys and Law firms before but, this one separates from the rest.Attorny John P.was exceptional handling my Personal injury part of my case Communication was great and speedily.I would definitely recommend this Law Firm..

I never believed I would find myself taking legal action against anyone or anything, it’s not my vibe. Unfortunately, I was handed a situation where I was not given much choice, and wanted to find out what my options were. From the appt scheduled within a day or 2 to meeting John Pfleiderer for a consult I instantly felt comfortable and heard. Throughout the time we worked together, not only was John a brilliant lawyer that was completely honest, clearly held my best interests at heart, and cared about my case genuinely, he always was a kind human being that was patient with my naïveté in lawsuits and answered every question. When the unexpected happened and I went through huge life issues COMPLETELY UNRELATED to the case but very impactful to the quality of my life John and the rest of this form went from an amazing lawyer & team, to a one of a kind, above & beyond, 20/10 team of lawyers that fought for me legally, and treated me and my struggling family with pure compassion that was absolutely not a requirement. I don’t leave many reviews, but when I do it is because I genuinely hope others see this and make a decision to use a good business, product, or in this case best lawyer and firm in Akron. Thank you John, Warner, and the rest of your wonderful team that treated my family like your own.

Awesome legal team! Wonderful outcome on our case. Genuinely care about resolving your situation! Would recommend! Thank you for your help, much appreciated!

Mendenhall Law Group not only worked with me on my Wrongful Termination case they helped me fully understand my Rights, options, and path moving forward. Highly recommend them for all your needs! Very Knowledgeable and Professional with their services! Thank you

Warner and Kyle are trustworthy and kind. They have the best interest of their clients in mind. They return phone calls/respond to emails very quickly and are always willing to answer questions. So grateful for both of them.

John handled my legal problem quickly and smoothly!

Kyle Wemming helped me to navigate the confusing process of appealing a ruling from the PUA about an overpayment. I had tried to figure it out on my own, but it was nearly impossible. It was a pleasure working with the Mendenhall law firm. They were caring and efficient, and helped me get the issue resolved. Thank you for your expertise!

Looking for an attorney is no easy task. I had contacted about a dozen with no luck until I called Mendenhall. John Pfleiderer is a good, honest man. Even the receptionist is very nice and pleasant to talk to. I would absolutely recommend.

Thank you Frank for all your work and support. I wish you the best respectfully Jennifer Jordan.
