Milstein Adelman: Trustworthy, Better Response to Clients and Positive Lawsuit Rewards
I noted the presence of a Chinese Drywall in my building that was affecting the health of my family due to the waste products used in its manufacture. My friend recommended the name of Milstein Adelman law firm and the results I received from the filed lawsuit against the Chinese Drywall were beyond expectations. I not only received the compensation amount for the same but also got the new wall constructed without undergoing through any of the legal hassles…Thanks to the support from the passionately committed attorneys!

Not trustworthy
We got sucked into a lawsuit against the home builder for the defects in our home by this law firm because we had absolutely no experience in any suit and thought this would be a less painful way to get the construction defects fixed. We were wrong! Milstein Addelman has proved to be too INCOMPETENT to represent us and our neighbors in the class action. Our house was inspected several times by both parties. The inspector sent by Milstein Adelman did a very lousy job. Now it's been more than four years but they have not reached ANY settlement and we still have received any definite answer from Milstein Adelman. They also switch attorneys assigned to the case very often, leaving communication a mess when we tried to reach them. Customer service at Milstein Adelman also was a disaster and unprofessional.
I agree with most others on this review: Don't waste your time with this law firm. They talk big but do very little, if any thing, to your advantage at all!

milstein adelman suit
The other reviews are dead on. Same story as the others. They filed a class action suit against my home builder and received a settlement. They called me up and said they had a check ready for me, but I needed to sign a release first. I asked the attorney how much it was, and he said it varied by house. I asked for a ballpark amount, but he would not tell me. I received the release and it said I would get between $4500-7000. Well its been 4 months and nothing. Left voice mails with the attorney, office manager and everyone in between and nothing. You would think after hearing so many messages from me they would call. All I want to know is the status of the thing. They got their money, but will not give you your money.

Complete lack of Customer Service, response to emails, phone calls and excuses
This firm was involved in litigation against the builder in our 545 home community. They solicited everyone in the Community to line their pockets. In January 2012, I had to pursue their organization to seek the status of the case, not only for my family, but for the remaining families in the community. I received no response, no returned phone calls and ONLY after I included a senior partner in the email chain did I get a response. This is June 14th, 2012 and after an ADDITIONAL 3 months of "promises to get it sent out", the monies that this firm has received as a result of the award STILL remains in their possession. DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICES, you will be frightfully disappointed in their response to questions and their absolute lack of care with regards to "their clients"

response time
The reviews are true I have left 3 voicemails for Christina Kurtz and no response. I will follow the advice of the other reviewers and see if the developer will fix the problems.

We were approached about 6 years ago by this office who was doing a class action suit against a builder in Roseville. We have lived in our home since 2002, and are one of the few remaining original buyers in our development. At first we ignored the law firm's mailings, but a friend in real estate told us that these kinds of class actions are commonplace, and development companies are required to insure new developments for 10 years against builder defects. He advised that since the class action wouldn't require money out of our pockets, it wouldn't hurt us to go ahead and see if we could get some kind of compensation for the defects we were experiencing. Initially there was a lot of activity, letters, etc., on this. We even received a letter from the developer offering to fix the defects, but the law firm had advised us against settling because it would weaken the class action lawsuit. That was almost 4 years ago. About two years ago, a team of inspectors hired the development company's firm came to our house, with a representative from our class action law firm, to go through our house and document defects. It appeared that things were coming to fruition. We were told that we should be getting a letter within six months containing a final offer on the class action, and we were to sign the agreement asap and return it so it wouldn't avoid delays in payments. We had to do this twice, because the law firm claimed it didn't receive the first release. According to the documentation, we should have received between $5,000 - $7,500 by now; however, I wonder now if we should have let the development company fix the defects 4 years ago, because damage has only gotten worse. It's been over a year since we learned of the settlement amount, and we still haven't received any settlement money nor heard from anyone at the law firm. They don't respond to emails -- apparently they don't even open them, because I tagged them for "confirm receipt." When I call, I have to go through a labyrinth of automated messages before I can leave a voicemail, which is never returned. I don't think I've ever reached a live person. Next year it will be our 10th year in the house, and the builder's insurance policy will expire. My suggestion to you would be to write a letter to the developer saying that you've been approached for a class action lawsuit, and see if they will work with you directly to resolve any problems you have. Good luck.

This office is doing a class action suit against out builder in Sacramento, it has been going on for a couple of years or more which is normal, they lie, they will never communicate, they never return calls. EVER. If I personally hired them they would of been fire long ago. Linda in the office is a flake, never responds and or calls. We left them 12 messages over the last 3 mos, once call back in which we missed. A few of my neighbors feel the same they are looking to fire them. Very unprofessional service, very unprofessional results. Do yourself a favor and run as far as possible from this firm. Milstein, Adleman & Kreger are the worst!!!!?
