Kerry Adkison, P.A. - Chipley (FL)

1 /5 Sarah Cobb: I scheduled a consultation with Mr. Adkison on 1/9/25, after the consultation he asked me to send over any documents that I had so he could review. I sent over the documentation that same day, then after not hearing back, on 1/13/25 I reached out stating I wanted to retain and asked if he had reviewed the documents. On 1/16/25, a staff member reached out and let me know she would complete an agreement and give the documents to him to review. Last week on 2/5/25 I still had not received any agreement and never told how to make a payment so I made a call, spoke with the same women on the email who told me she had been out sick but would give the documents to him to review and call me back by the end of the day. Never heard anything, so I followed up on 2/11/25 with a email and got an email back from Wesley Alison being very rude and basically saying it’s because I hadn’t paid. No apology and accountability about the fact that his office had failed to send an agreement or inform me how to make a payment when I had clearly stated I wanted to move forward. Again, I have called several times and been emailing with people and I was as never given a link to pay or told they could take a card number over the phone. This office will take your money for a consultation but then not take the steps to retain. And based off their inability to just follow through with retention, I would have little to no hope they would handle my case any differently. I’ll take my business some where else.

1 /5 Matt Garcia: If youre seeking truth and justice to come out in court look elsewhere. If I could give negative stars this firm-5

1 /5 Anthony Rosario: Now that my divorce is finally over with and I have received the final paperwork. I cant recommend this law firm. It took 4 years to get my case to court. Every time I called the phone would ring so many times it would disconnect. When they didnt answer the phone. The couldnt never give me an update. Or would say Ill call you back Which almost never happened. I would have to actually yell at them to get some kind of answers. Which is pretty sad

1 /5 King David Jr: They don’t like doing business or anything they say they will do. Save yourself the aggravation and just find someone else. Everything seemed fine until after payment. Then it’s goodbye and have a great life basically. No letter as promised for months.

2 /5 pam garcia: Big Disappointment. We were hoping to be reimbursed for costs for a new survey to correct survey monuments moved into our property by our neighbors, a wrongful arrest based on false allegations by our neighbors (which attorney did get dismissed), harassment, and additional outrageous false allegations by these un-neighborly neighbors, as well as for our crazy story to be told to a judge... We would have done better going to small claims court with no attorney. Attorney did not have a final meeting with us before our trial to review exactly what evidence and arguments he would present. Insufficient evidence was intoduced. Attorney claimed that evidence must be limited due to the time it takes to introduce each piece. You cant prove something without adequate evidence. Even in court, when I tried to say more, attorney stopped me. Attorney allowed the numerous false statements (perjury) by defendants during trial, without giving us chance to challenge their lies. After trial, attorney submitted a written "memo of facts and law" aka final arguments, without providing me time to review. 56% of the statements in this memo were patently false, had mixed-up dates, missing information, and overall argued nothing of substance. It made us sound like idiots. Despite my request for a court reporter, one was not provided... So what is claimed to have been said in court is based on "notes". We were not provided a copy of the Order in time to request a new trial based on all of the defendants provably false statements (and our inadequate representation). Our only recourse was a rehearing request, in which only the evidence presented at the first trial can be used, unless brand new evidence is unearthed. Although some of the evidence that was misconstrued by the court was plainly contradicted in the second set of survey drawings, it was moot because our attorney dismissed the trespass count because the defendants agreed the second survey corrected the moved markers. Rehearing was denied. I cannot blame the judge; he has to follow the rules. Its ok. This experience was an eye-opener for me on how our justice system works and how far off from the truth a final outcome of a trial can be. We just wanted the truth to come out in court. Our justice system needs a better method of taking in all relevant evidence before trial and evalating truthfulness of witness statements. Punishing those who lie to police and courts, should be a requirement in our justice system. Unfortunately our system of justice puts highest priorities on rules, precedents, and bureaucratic procedures and rarely, if ever, punishes those who lie. False testimony and lying to police is one of the major contributing factors to wrongful convictions. The fact that 2.5% of those on death row since the 70s have been exonerated (found factually innocent) is not a good rate of finding truth. I give 2 stars since our arrest was dismissed, although maybe that could have happened sooner if the warrant was challenged, as every accusation in it was rediculously false, even fabricated, and exculpatory evidence was not presented to judge.
