I just want to tell you something important about checking reviews before you go to a law firm. I was thinking about a life as a digital nomad and needed some legal advice. So, I went to this law firm and talked about my freelance business (which I had already set up while not nomadding). They told me my business structure wasn't legal, but they were wrong.
I ended up spending a lot of money on their advice. But later, when I talked to my tax consultant and even to the government, they all said my business was totally fine.
I got really mad about losing all that money and time for nothing. I left a bad review on Trustpilot. Then the law firm wrote a blog article about me, using my name (just left out one letter of my last name) and where I was born, and they discussed my case in detail within that blog post.
I couldn't believe they did that. That's so unprofessional in my opinion. I mean, I don't mind that much. Sure, if I could I would take this blog post down but I decided to use it against them. So I shared their blog post so others could see how they treat their clients' private information.
So, long story short, always read reviews before you pick a law firm. If I'd known they had bad reviews, I would've never gone to them.
Be careful.
I'm not sure if I should mention the firm here, as I would lose my anonymity here. Besides, knowing the name wouldn't really be helpful..
Don't out the company's name if there's possible pending litigation against them. This link might help you out:
