Trygstad Schwab & Trygstad

I hired this firm to represent me in a case and when I met with the initial lawyer that was covering my case. I was given a retainer agreement of 3,000 $ and the lawyer said that would include all costs including flight and transportation fees. I thought it was a fair price and agreed to the terms. Fast forward a month after the case was handled and I got an additional bill for 1,707 $!!! When I called to speak to the lawyer who handled my case, I found out that she quit and no longer worked for the firm. I spoke to Mr. Trystad in regards to the fees and he said the retainer was only a base fee and anything additional would be charged to me! I stated to him that those were not the terms I agreed to with the initial lawyer, and he said he would send me an itemized statement and the contract. Pretty much tell me I was out of luck! The worst part is that the original lawyer I hired didn’t work there so it was pretty hard to prove a case. The work they did for me was minimal… it was a textbook case, and the «hours of research» were bogus because this is the type of law they deal with on a daily basis. Save your money and avoid going to this firm, or make sure that it states in writing that he agreed upon retainer will cover all your costs. Valuable Lesson Learned!!! :(

THOROUGH AND PROFESSIONAL
I found these attorneys after interviewing at least five other possible attorneys. Shannon Trygstad and staff were able to take my very complex and problematic case, steer it through a two year process against a duplicitous organization, finally resulting in a very satisfactory settlement. I recommend them to all of my friends and associates.
