      MEZHER LAW WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY!!! I signed a client representation agreement in July 2022 and retained Mezher Law on an hourly basis. The case was settled early December and when the settlement check was sent to Mezher Law's office on January 17th I then received an incorrect bloated bill on January 31st for additional charges of $5,180.00 and Mezher Law is refusing to provide proof of additional charges and refuse to release my settlement from our agreement of paying them hourly. I spoke with Mike over the phone and he refused to provide details that my settlement is in the proper trust account and I informed Mike I would be moving forward with filing a grievance with the court and he said "Good Luck" and hung up the phone. I am truly disturbed by how I've been treated and the failure of Mezher Law to provide accurate billing and STEALING CLIENT FUNDS!!!

      *** ******** Complaint is false, intentionally
      misleading, and libelous. Our firm associate, Alex M*****, defended *** ******
      against an eviction Complaint filed against her on July 6, 2022. Attached is a
      copy of the Eviction Complaint. Attorney M***** filed an Answer and
      Counterclaim. Attached is a copy of the Answer and Counterclaim. As a result of
      our representation, *** ****** was not evicted and continued to live in her
      unit until a very favorable Agreement resolving the matter was filed with the
      Court. Attached is an Agreed Entry. The Agreement clearly benefitted *** ******
      with monetary compensation totaling $17,000.00.


      *** ****** agreed to a fee agreement with an hourly
      rate of $250 an hour for work provided by Attorney M***** and $300 an hour for
      work provided by Attorney Michael B. M***** *** Attached is the Fee Agreement.
      Invoices were sent to *** ****** on a regular basis. Attached is a complete
      itemization of time spent representing *** ****** and payments made by Ms.
      Carter. *** ****** has a balance due to our firm in the amount of $3,876.20.
      Mezher Law and *** ****** both endorsed a refund check from the Court refunding
      rent escrow per the Agreed Entry. Said funds are being held in the Firm’s *****
      trust account. The balance due in fees is outstanding.


      *** ****** has been provided this information and
      settlement statement. See attached. Additionally, *** ****** repeatedly
      demanded and insisted that the Firm endorse the entire check to her. The firm
      has repeatedly advised *** ****** to retrieve her funds minus the outstanding
      balance. Simply stated, *** ****** refuses to pay the balance owed in attorney
      fees. Now, *** ****** makes false statements that are intended to hurt the law
      firm’s reputation after having provided excellent representation.  

      Thank you for allowing our Firm an opportunity to
      respond.
