Thank you so much Kaven was one of the best help me out with the settlement
Kevin was absolutely phenomenal to work with. This was about as straightforward and easy of a process as I’ve ever experienced. I can not recommend the Lemon Lawyer enough.
I was referred by a coworker that was going through the very same experience that I was. Everything he said about the Law Firm was true down to the T. They are very thorough in their proceedings. They also provide you with enough information to make the process very seamless. I was updated and communicated with through the whole process. I have to say they fight very hard for you and on your behalf. These people really know what they’re doing.
Awesome people to work with. If I had to again I wouldn’t choose anyone else to represent me.
Mr. Duck handled my case so smoothly. I purchased a brand new Grand Wagoneer and it spent more time in the shop than I want to even think about. By time I hired Mr. Duck, the car still wasn't completely fixed but we went down this path and did settle. I wasn't comfortable settling until they agreed to complete all repairs, Mr. Duck went above and beyond going back to them to negotiate the completion of repairs on top of the settlement. It was such an easy process on my end and Mr. Duck and his associates were great to work with. Highly recommend.
Duck Law firm did an awesome job! I wish been able to get a new truck out of the deal but the extra cash helped. These trucks are not built the way use to be — so far my new 2024 hasn’t given me any issues! 2020 & 2022 both lemons
Duck Law Firm was excellent in resolving my lemon issue. They followed through with the process, and I received far more than they initially estimated I would when the case was resolved. I will recommend them to anyone who is going through an unfortunate lemon issue!
Handled our settlement with ease. We did not have to do a thing and they did all of the work. Very pleased with our transaction.
My last hope was Duck Law Firm, and they successfully resolved my case. I had lost all hope of my truck being restored to its normal condition. After months of back-and-forth interactions with the dealership, I finally contacted Mr. Duck. He thoroughly explained the process, which proved to be surprisingly straightforward. The firm required my vehicle's documents and any relevant work history. Throughout the process, I provided updates, and they kept me informed. Ultimately, I received a substantial settlement that compensated for the months of distress I endured. I advise against allowing any dealership to take advantage of you. If you encounter any questionable issues, I recommend reaching out to Duck Law
Mr. Duck is one of the top attorneys you will ever meet. I, personally, have been represented by his firm and I could not have asked for better representation. He is the ultimate professional that takes a personal approach for all his clients. Highly recommend Mr. Duck.
