Fuston Petway And Courtney French
Courtney French Law Firm is filled with Unfulfilled Promises. Flat Out Lies. My Family are VICTIMS to their lies and GREED! Anniston, Montgomery, Mobile, Huntsville, Tuscaloosa And Gadsden

My father had a horrible car accident 2 years ago, and was thrown out of his truck. The accident was caused when a female driver ran a red light in the rain and ran into my father.

After accessing all of my father injuries we called out Family friend/Lawyer Courtney French and he swore up and down that he would take care of us and that we would not have to worry about his fee. THAT WAS A LIE!!...

Courtney spent little to no time on our case and later turned it over to one of his partners who was just as bad. They kept insuring us that we would get money for personal injury... The hospital bills... Longterm pain... And the money that I lost ($30,000) for helping my family the two years it took to settle this case. My dad could not work... His back was broken in many places and he still walks humped over... When learning of this I decided that I would postpone moving out of my parents house and use the money that I had saved up inorder to move and pay their bills.

$30,000 may sound like a lot but over a two year period it is not... It goes away fast... After my money was gone that is when the credit card debt started occuring b/c the bills had to be paid.

Courtney knew that my father was not coherant after the accident and my father insisted that my mother be in the room with him whenever Courtney and his partners spoke to him... However when my mom left the room to gather papers to build the case... They slipped a piece of paper for my incoherant dad to sign... They stated it was just stating that we wouldn't have to pay unless they settled... However we came to find out that it was stating that Courtney and his crooked partners were taking over 25% of the settlement.

Moving along... The day came of the settlement and they were saying settelement numbers in the 6 figures... But somehow we only ended up with $55,000... Here's the breakdown...$18,000 in hospital bills...$25,000 in lawyers fees (when Courtney stated from the beginning he would not charge... Because in his words "WE'RE FAMILY... I care more about you guys then me getting paid for this case")... Which left $7000, which went to pay on (not off... Just pay on) the over $52,000 credit card debit that was occured once my $30,000 drained out... So basically we were left with nothing!!! We didn't even get an I'm sorry that things didn't work out... They didn't even won't to take the case to trail... Which is what we wanted to do because we knew that the off was too low compared to ALL the pain and suffering my dad and we all endured... But they stated that we would end up getting less if we went to trail...

Then to top it off... All of a sudden the same doctor who wrote in a report that was presented during the settlement that my father would have long lasting effects, and that his back would never recover... Somehow changed his tune and sent a letter stating that he didn't see any reason why my father couldn't work without pain. If you could see the way his walks... And how his skin has broken out all over his body due to the stress of trying to provide for his family and knowing that he can't because EVERYDAY he is in SERIOUS pain... Then you would know that no one should ever choose fuston petway and especially courtney french as their law firm... They lied to my family... They took more than their cut... (b/c they stated we wouldn't be charged) and they are heartless.
