Bill Beck Law PA

Yes, they are very nice & respectful however when it came to getting real results we would get double talk or excuses.

Hired Bill Beck in October of 2017 !!Burned through the 3,600 retainer fee only to be told that the other lawyer has left the practice and also need an additional refresher fee to continue. After going around and around getting no where, and speaking with the financial office manager was hoping to work things out. Had questions some answered. Called back to touch base and left message well nobody ever called back. So sad for a child custody case. Today is May 7th 2018 still no resolution. Very sad! Don't waste your money !!!

I called this law firm because the attorney, Daniel Lord, came highly recommended. She left the firm soon after I gave them my retainer and I was given the option to move with her to her new firm or stay with Bill Beck. HUGE mistake was to stay. My wife and I were amicable and our goal was save money and get the divorce done quickly. I was told my initial retainer should be more than sufficient. I would have been better off downloading forms over the web and doing this myself. Little to no solid advice on alimony. Towards the very end of the divorce process they started sending me bills and asking for more retainers that basically doubled the initial retainer fee. It seems like this is a common thread in other reviews so my advice would be to stay away and find another law firm!! After they billed me double the initial retainer and I paid them, they didn't even show up for my divorce hearing and claimed it was a "calendar error". They called the judge and asked if they could attend via telephone. The judge agreed and my divorce was finalized. When I emailed their office and asked if any of my final retainer was refundable, they just ignored my emails. I heard from another local attorney that this firm has a bad reputation. I complained to the FL Bar and also the BBB. Something I have never done before. Hard lesson learned from me but I'm hoping this honest review will lose them more money than they gained by taking advantage of me.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS FIRM! Where to start? I’m an unwed father and the mother of my son was keeping him from me so I hired BBL. The first attorney was Zonald and seemed like a great attorney. He left 2 weeks after I retained BBL. I had the option to leave with Zonald or stay and I stayed. I had a domestic violence case against the mother as well. Bill Beck showed up at the first DVI hearing and nothing was accomplished. Then he hired an attorney named Jason (What a great guy) who showed up for my 2nd DVI hearing and actually made things happen and had the court show even though they weren't granting me the DVI she did commit domestic violence against me. Then on to the paternity case. Jason was able to get an emergency hearing due to the mother withholding my son from me and I was able to get everything I asked for during that hearing. (Temporary Order). Shortly after the hearing Jason left as well and they asked if I wanted to stay or go with Jason. This time I opted to go with Jason. It’s been 3 weeks now and they still have not released all the documents to my case and still have not refunded what was left of my retainer. BBL nicpicked every last dime they could and after 15K later I still only have a temp order in place. Jason has been a life saver and is helping me get the balance of my retainer from BBL. (over 2K). I have a feeling I’m going to have to contact the Florida Bar to get the balance of my retainer back. Needles to say, The attorneys that are hired by BBL seem to be up and up, but it seems this firm is unable to keep said attorneys at the firm. Less than 6 months and $15K I’m left with a temp time sharing order from the court, the balance of my retainer has not been returned and I’ve watched 3 different attorneys come and go. Unless you like throwing money out the window and not knowing who your attorney will be week after week I’d advise you to STAY AWAY!
