After a poor investment decision, I decided to use Resch Rechtsanwälte GmbH lawyers to investigate and retrieve my investment losses, something they confidently explained to me over the phone was their expertise.
Having paid their upfront retainer and waiting for some time, I was subsequently told "The matter was a little more complicated than they had initially thought" Resch Rechtsanwälte GmbH lawyers then asked for more "retainer" money so they could carry on their investigation. This went on for a month, but I had hoped that with all the requested documents and extra money they would be able to move forward effectively, I was mistaken, and when they then asked for another payment to be made for the ongoing investigation, I began to get very concerned.
I decided to refuse to pay Resch Rechtsanwälte GmbH any more money and asked them where they had got to in the situation, and they said they were at "the investigation stage." I thought this was unsatisfactory so I told them to get on with it, after all wasn't that why I was paying them?
I started calling them more frequently hoping to hear updates on my situation but all of a sudden, the person who I had been dealing with was out of the office all the time and no one knew where my case file had got to. When I formally wrote an email of dissatisfaction, they couldn't even bother to send me a reply or a work in process update.
All correspondence with me has now stopped, and I would not recommend them at all and have now taken advice from a more reputable German law firm. Still, I am sadly getting told by these new lawyers that they have heard many stories of German legal companies with fake lawyers setting up one minute then disappearing the next so please don't make the same mistake as me!
Avoid Resch Rechtsanwälte GmbH.
