They are super busy so I'm just glad they are attempting to help if they can!!

I worked with Gretel Johns and she was amazing! The case was supposed to be handed over to another organization, but when they refused the case she said that she would keep it and offered assistance with other related matters if needed.

I dealt with Regan perrodin. Based on my research she appears to be fresh out of law school and doesn't seem competent. When I asked questions I got a lot of maybe, might, and I'm not sure. She also said a few times it depends on the circumstances and im thinking well you know all the circumstances. Long story short having landlord issues and she seemed to side with him (based on his lies). She said I was wrong about some things then later switched to they couldn't take my case. I think they just said I was in the wrong to try to avoid saying they can't take my case. Not helpful at all. I asked if the notice I received from landlord could let him actually file an eviction and she couldn't tell me. I spoke with a lawyer who is experienced in a free consultation that told me he would not be able to file for eviction. She appeared to not even realize you can't just file an eviction without good reason and meeting all the requirements. I was appalled she was not on my side. Being on your client's side is lawyer 101. I will never get ahold of anyone from here ever again. Why volunteer to help people if you won't help them. Literally just wasted my time.

I had to literally beg these people for help, and when they finally “helped,” I feel they did more to help the aggressive bully than they did to help me. Blind to discrimination, possibly just lazy, Mr. Baumgartner muted me while we listened to the plaintiff literally lie to the court. I was not allowed to defend myself, explain anything, or even point out the context of the material that was actually submitted by the plaintiff. The whole experience felt like I was being shafted, and like he traded me for a beer or threw me to the lions merely for entertainment. I recommend avoiding this establishment unless, like myself, you have no other choice. Even then, I feel it would have been faster to simply skip the whole thing anyway. When Mr. Baumgartner lost my case he promptly abandoned me citing issues of staffing, resources, and time. I couldn’t be less impressed and I can’t imagine I could feel less betrayed, though it seems like all the social services in Fort Wayne, Indiana are engineered to give the disadvantaged false hope while sustaining the status quo and shuffling all resources and energy into sustaining the discriminators, the thieves, and the bullies so long as they have property or connections. Mr. Baumgartner was might quick to defend AG Rentals despite their lies about service request completions, he seemed quick to surrender to First Choice Housing despite having a recording he could have submitted where Mr. Lindsay berates me and swears at me. A conversation his wife says was vulgar to the court. It seemed like a ridiculously easy case to win to me, two years of current rent, two years of fixing their property, two years of direct communication with an owner, only to have them throw me out based on lies that could be easily demonstrated with the text messages, e-mails, photos, and recordings I have? I sincerely hope you’re never in a situation where you need someone’s actual and real help. Even more I hope you never have to settle for this. It is my opinion that you will be fed to the lions and abandoned. Avoid at all costs, especially if you’re disabled, LGBTQI, not Christian, or fall into any ethnic demographic. They get paid whether you lose or not. Where does their funding come from? Hmmm...

I have Andrew Thomas and I have the best attorney at law working for me! He has told me he looks forward to looking into my case. I look forward to hearing from him again soon. He seems quite knowledgeable about modifications/abatements. I will continue to update my review as our case goes on. Update: Andrew Thomas Esq. did a phenomenal job. He is a man of integrity. I couldn't ask for a better attorney. Thank you!
