I called Rhine Law Firm in October 2018 to describe a legal issue that I had encountered and to ask if they thought I had a case that could be pursued. After a few days passed with no call-back, I stopped by the Rhine Offices to ask again. I was told that Josh, the fellow who took my original call, would call me back. A couple of weeks passed, I called the firm again on November 7th and spoke with Josh. I again reviewed the issue and asked for an opinion as to whether I had a strong enough case to pursue legal action. Josh promised to call me back the next day and sent me an email asking a number of questions, which I answered the next day. However, I received no call on the 8th. Josh did send email on Nov. 14th to ask if I had been contacted by anyone in the firm, and another email on Dec. 5th to ask the same question. After approximately two months, I still haven't been contacted by anyone in Rhine Law Firm to answer my single original question. Even if they called me back and said that I had a rock-solid case, I'm doubtful that I would trust them to handle my case. Rhine Law Firm may have great lawyers and success in legal matters, but, in my case, it has demonstrated very poor customer service and not delivered on its promise of a "free consultation". ________________________________
Follow-up (Jan. 31, 2019): As promised below, Joel Rhine did call me to discuss the issue I reported in December. Joel apologized for the problems I experienced and we had a very pleasant conversation in which he provided the information that I originally sought. I think he felt genuine chagrin over the communications problems that occurred.

Joel and his firm have a mindset of we are going to fight until the end and his confidence level put me at inner peace. When I was ready to settle my case, he knew he could do better and was able to fight for a higher offer. I couldn't have asked for a better firm to handle my injury claim. My life has turned around all because of Joel and his firm. If you do not have confidence with your attorney, you need to contact Rhine Law Firm immediately.
They are going out of their way to make sure that my mother-in-law obtains everything she is entitled to in an injury case. I recommend anyone with an injury to consider and retain this firm.

Dara worked diligently in helping settle my case. I would recommend her to anyone looking to settle a car accident case. She was very knowledgeable, always available, and worked her hardest to give me the highest possible damages amount.

While on vacation, our family was taking a group picture. The deck collapsed, and 25 fell to a concrete patio. 7 people were seriously injured. We contacted the Rhine Law Firm. We could not have made a better choice. Joel Rhine and his staff answered all our questions and helped us deal with the attorneys for the home owner and the real estate company. We were informed of everything, as the process went forward. We had conference calls on a regular basis, so everyone had a chance to ask questions. Joel Rhine and his staff did everything possible to help us in a very dark period of our lives. Going with the Rhine Law Firm was the best decision that we could have made.

Thank you for the expert handling of our company's legal issues. Your ability to quickly get to the top people who can make decisions and agreements has successfully solved a number of issues. Joel Rhine's ability to quickly get to the core of an issue, his reputation, tenacious style, contacts and staff are unmatched.

I was the President of a large HOA with a multitude of issues. Joel and Chris were there for us in every need. There advise was honest and to the point. They explained cost of legal action vs projected outcome. Their expertise in construction issues, HOA law, and the day to day issues were greatly appreciated. I personally work one on one with Chris on numerous issues including HOA claims after Hurricane Florence among other issues. Legal issues of any kind are never pleasant but I must say I enjoyed working with Chris. I highly recommend this firm.

Rhine Law Firm took our case after another firm was unable to continue working on it because it was out of their scope. They worked tirelessly for months to achieve a settlement for us which we never thought was possible. Chris and Stephanie were always professional and hardworking I am thankful we had them on our team. We were very pleased with the outcome of working with Rhine.

We needed help with our uncooperative insurance company after Hurricane Florence. The staff at Rhine Law Firm were very Informative, helpful, and professional. Our reimbursement from the insurance company was sufficient to make the needed repairs. Special shout out to Josh, Andrea, Ray and Dara.

Our family suffered a horrible "accident" that was caused by negligence. The damage and suffering were overwhelming. Rhine Law Firm is caring, honest, ethical, and extremely skilled. We were blessed to have them fighting for us, and never giving up. We cannot recommend them more enthusiastically.

My wife and I retained Rhine Law Firm for circumstances surrounding the construction of our home. It was a long arduous process and we can not thank Joel , Dara, and the rest of the team at Rhine Law Firm enough. They provided us with good advice and I feel they went above and beyond. Thank you all again for all of your help and direction. R & J

If you want to lawyer that does not want to work but settle cases with insurance company and collect the lowest amount this is the guy .once you sign his contract he has you on his hook and you can't do anything about your case even if you want to fire him and get another lawyer he still collect money from you , he does't fight cases he just settle and collect . so if you want to get the lowest money this is the guy, so please do not make the same mistake i made i had nothing but a hard time to get answer . PLEASE DO NOT HIRE RHINE LAW FIRM.does not work for you just a sit back and settle so he can get most off the money in his pocket.
