Your website avvo make blook me

Hello, I am Enas Obidou. I am communicating with lawyers in California, USA, through the Avvo website at inas10854@***.com.

However, I was surprised that you closed my account with you, and I do not know what the problem is.

I cannot reach the lawyers through the Avvo page. I hope you find out the reason and unlock the page.

Fraudulent scam. They refuse to post anything that isn't positive. They vehemently refuse. They will say things like - 'You're unfairly accusing the attorney.' What?! Were they in the room with us?

Then they'll say - 'You didn't say you hired them.'

My review - I hired so and so.

Then they'll say - 'The attorney doesn't know you.' What? It's anonymous!

They need to be sued again.

Want my money back

All your site did was give me absolutely 0% correct advice. Referred to local bar association which I already knew to do. I will be reaching out to BBB if $46.00 and $5.00 are not refunded ASAP.

Rep was very patient and tried to help

A client wrote a review of our services, unfortunately, something went wrong and it was never posted. He tried to locate the information but was not able to do so. Consequently, he suggested that we contact our client to repost.

My vindictive ex threatened and extorted me by posting completely false things on avvo

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Jun 24, 2024

I feel a sense of security and safety because of Avvos help

Original review updated Jun 24, 2024

My ci fictive ex would tell me how hed destroy my reputation. When I refused to go back he started posting horrific and untrue things.

I refused to give in but when I called Avvo they took care of removing his false posts in 30 minutes!

They helped me preserve my reputation and take the power away from my vindictive and abusive ex.

I cannot express what a relief it was for them to act so quickly. THANK YOU AVVO SUPPORT - youll never know how much that meant to me

Cons:
  • Can be an abusive tool or vindictive tool

Preferred solution: Protection from people trying to use Avvo as a form of abuse - better screening process … I guess

User's recommendation: If you have left *** reviews - reach out to your client. But if they are truly fake Avvo has your back

Nonresponsive - and posts wrong phone numbers on my paid account!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I upgraded my Avvo account and now pay $199 a month for advertising. The reason I upgraded was to obtain new clients.

Since October 2023 I have been complaining to Avvo that they are posting the wrong phone numbers on my account -- phone numbers that have never been affiliated with my business. Despite repeated emails to customer service, calls to customer service, and numerous emails to my "account manager," I get no response. They refuse to call back and refuse to correct the numbers. I am paying money for nothing.

No one can contact me through Avvo. Before I upgraded I was able to change my contact information on the profile site, but I do not have that option now with the upgraded service.

Do not upgrade and do not pay Avvo. It is a waste of money and only causes problems.

Biased

Avvo is not to be used as a reliable source for those looking to hire attorneys. They target lawyers for premium services.

Therefore, Avvo removes any content the attorney doesn't like, even if it is truthful.

I along with several other people posted honest, detailed reviews about an attorney's unprofessional conduct. However, Avvo sanitized their entire profile leaving only 5-star review from 10 years ago.

Younsel.com publishes incorrect and unauthorized information

Younsel.com refuses to correct incorrect information on profiles. This company wants new users to submit official identification in order to claim a profile.

This company claims that by claiming a profile, it can be edited.

However even after claiming a profile, there is no edit capability. The company is a scam.

Won't post my review even when it meets their guidelines

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Mar 25, 2023

Avvo is a company that selects the reviews it posts to protect their customers. Avvo refuses to post negative reviews on their paid clients.

When a lawyer is unethical, I posted a review and gave them all legal documents from the state bar of texas yet they refuse to post and now they have added my phone number to the " Don't answer " list. I call from my phone and there is no answer but immediately call from my wife's phone and they answer.

Now, both phones are on that list. Avvo is also a scam

Original review Feb 23, 2023

Posted several reviews on an unethical attorney, gave them state bar grievance and a letter from the state bar showing this attorney chose not to PARTICIPATE.
