And if it's true? I mentioned how the attorney was passionate and enthusiastic and sounded very positive during the free consultation but then I was given another attorney in my case who was rude, impatient, and simply accepted everything the worker's comp insurance said including the small settlement I received even though on their site they say the average amount for a settlement would be a certain amount with one of their lawyers for a specific injury and I had two of the same injury. I see the law firm responded to a few negative reviews saying they were never clients which if true would be considered defamation. My review is true. What does it mean if they don't respond to a true negative review?
I didn't mention this part but the attorney in the free consultation even cited that the worker comp doctor had broken a law by not completely treating the injury since he had requested a stupid therapy test too soon. So this attorney was just lying to convince me to choose his firm.

Work at law firm. Nothing. We will certainly not sue you over it. If it was worth the the effort we could argue it with whoever you reviewed us on.
Okay. I wanted to make it wasn't breach of contract either since it was during the free consultation and I didn't mention anything specifically that was said during this consultation. I saw other people who were more specific.

Also if I specifically ask for a lawyer and talk to him for the free consultation but they give me another lawyer after signing the contract what does that mean? It doesn't make sense. One was saying positive things then the other one was a very negative person and sided with whatever the insurance said. The first was was saying how we were going to sue the insurance company so much since supposedly they broke many rules.

It seems to mean there was a miscommunication or no communication about whether you would receive the same attorney you initially spoke with.
A reminder that there's a difference between suing someone...and suing someone successfully.
But I will say that another another community forum I'm on there are many posts that I think could be the grounds for successfully suing.
I also think it's interesting that at a couple of medical offices that I am a patient at, there are now signs that you cannot record appointments (with your smart phone).
If you know the difference between an opinion vs. a false statement, you’ll be fine relative to negative reviews.

In other words, it’s easier to establish defamation (and malice) when you’re declaring something to be ‘true’.

Yep. Many years ago my Torts professor said that anyone with $15 (the filing fee at the time) can sue anyone else. Winning the case is a whole other matter.
