Motley Rice LLC

Motley Rice seems to have a knack for hiring paralegals who are more focused on defending their own attitude than actually helping clients. Crystal, the paralegal from Rhode Island I spoke with, was already brimming with condescension from the get-go. She told me my hernia mesh brand didn't qualify for a lawsuit while this other brand did, and when I questioned how that could possibly make sense, she got flustered and started accusing me of being "hostile." My mother was sitting right next to me, and we were both just baffled - this was the weirdest meltdown we'd ever seen. It's almost comedic how humans cling to rules and regulations, even when they make zero sense - like Crystal couldn't just admit, "Yeah, I don't really know why - that's just how it is." Instead, she acted like my curiosity was an act of war. Crystal, if you're reading this, I'd suggest a different career path - one that doesn't involve talking to people who expect actual answers. Because if you thought my polite questions were hostile, you're in for a wild ride in this world. Good luck to anyone else trying to get clarity here!

I was the one who initially called Motley Rice about my son's hernia mesh case, and my son joined in to help clarify some questions. All we wanted to understand was why the brand of mesh and the date of surgery seemed to matter so much when he's been suffering for nearly two decades. Instead of providing a clear answer, Crystal - the paralegal - decided to accuse my son of being "hostile" for simply asking questions. It was so out of line that we looked at each other in disbelief. It was clear she didn't know the answer and decided to get defensive instead of just saying she didn't know. It's truly bizarre how people can cling to rules they don't even understand, turning a straightforward question into a personal issue. Crystal's behavior was the opposite of professional - she was rude, condescending, and completely unhelpful. If this is how Motley Rice treats people trying to understand their own legal situation, I'd be very cautious. And Crystal, if you think polite questions are "hostile," you're in for quite the surprise in this world. Good luck to anyone else who tries to get real answers here!

I have been waiting for two years for my settlement. My assigned paralegal keeps giving me the run around with "call me back" only when I do call back there is no answer and voice mails or emails aren't getting returned. So frustrated! I don't believe I will be working with them again.

My husband and I had to go see an attorney there. Very easy to find and a beautiful building on the water. They're very respectful there. Seem to be honest and straight forward. And we feel confident that we've choosen a good law firm to help us.

Terrible communication and follow up from this firm. Took over 3 weeks for them to tell me they wouldn't take my case because it would be too expensive for them to litigate, even though I planned on paying for their services! Had to call and email multiple times to get any response from the attorney.
