Clayton is a crook. He took my $750 filed with the EEOC two months later then he disappeared. Now I gotta sue him for breach of contract.

Mr. Craighead needs to be reported to the Texas Bar. I hired Mr. Criaghead 6 months for an EEOC case. He charged me $750 and did the bare minimum at best. I didnt realize until I started to do my own research and speak to other EEOC attorneys. It took multiple emails to get a response after payment! His website is a complete lack of representation. It makes me sick. Reading his website is complete garbage and I was in no way represented as advertised clients should be based on his website. Mr. Craighead barley listened to my case. I was a quick $750 and that was it. Mr. Craighead sent me an email after this review victim shaming me and gaslighting me into thinking he did something for my case. In reality, he didnt. You do not need an EEOC attorney to file, but should obtain one when you get a right to sue letter. Do yourself a favor and dont hire this one. However: he did say every client that retained him for a lawsuit gave a 5* review. Am I missing something or if you dont have the best case to win EASILY, it obviously a 5* REVIEW?

Believe the reviews.....regarding him not calling back. This man had all pertinent information regarding my claim and he didnt take the time to review it prior to our arranged meeting that cost me $275 consultation fee. He said he would contact me at the beginning of the following week on a Friday, that day came and went with no contact. I followed up with text message, e-mail and by voicemail. He never did as hed claimed he would. He is very unprofessional and does not value your time or money.

I have an email consult regarding my case, and they decided not to present me at this time. Which is absolutely fine, I understand they can not accept all cases. But I had a follow-up question, and they would never respond or receive any kind of feedback.

Contacted this law firm last year in regards to an employment case, they stated they would contact me back and every time I would call they would ignore my calls. I sent emails, voicemails, etc. Well God does everything for a reason, the same case they turned down, I was able to obtain another lawyer who did a phenomenal job and won a huge settlement. Don t waste your time with this law firm.

After seeing all the outstanding reviews I felt that contacting them was a easy choice. I initially contacted them and they didn t answer. I was later sent a link via text with all the information that I needed to fill out and did so In a timely manner that same day. I was contacted the next day, with a who are you? Attitude and I explained who I was and that I had sent all the information they requested regarding why I was contacted them. He had to look up my application during the phone call conversation and requested further documentation for my consultation. I promptly submitted all the documentation he asked for and never heard back from them. I ve attempted to contact them more than a few times with no response at all even after leaving voice messages. I m not looking for a handout and I am more than willing to pay for their time/guidance to see if they are willing to help me in my situation. Still nothing, not even the courtesy of telling me they aren t interested or too busy to take. Very disappointing

My case was heard by Clayton and he went right into action in my case. The big name employer stood no match for a true Employment Trial Lawyer that knew the law every step of the way in my case. I m forever grateful that my name was represented by the very best doing this type of Law.

Clayton Craighead is the best lawyer in Houston. He is knowledgeable and the utmost professional. I contacted him regarding a sensitive employment law issue that I was facing. He listened to all of my concerns and provided help that brought my case to quick resolution. Prior to this I spoke with several other law firms and was not able to even get my calls returned. Clayton is an outstanding lawyer who actually cares about his clients, seeking what is best for them, and who will truly fight for you when you need it. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal help.

I found The Craighead Law Firm after going through a difficult situation. Clayton looked over my employment contract, he listened to my story and immediately knew my rights had been violated. Clayton was always honest and stayed on top of my case. I never had to check on him for updates, he always made sure to stay in contact with me. If youre looking for an honest and trustworthy attorney to handle your case, Clayton is definitely who you need to call.

Looking back to one of the worst times in my life, I felt like I desperately needed help to overcome insurmountable obstacles. Mr. Craighead and Mrs.Sarah Richey were there for me with dedication and perseverance. They both proved to be very reliable law firms and helped me to attain a great result. My case was indeed a difficult one. However, It s not only about the money. It is about professionalism, tenicaty, diligence and intellect these two attorneys showed. Unlike other attorneys I have dealt with, both of these attorneys made me feel that they were truly engaged with my case and that was very pleasing and satisfying to me. The whole exsperience was so much easier on me because of them. I d HIGHLY Recommend and would use them again if the need arises.

Not like most lawyers, who have you fill out a questionnaire and wont take your case unless its a slam dunk, Clayton actually talks to you and treats you like a person and not just a quick pay day. He hunkered down in the trenches for me and fought hard as if I was family. This is the type of lawyer you want. Hes been on both sides of employment law and knows the game. Thank you Mr. Craighead, I dont know where I would be if you wouldnt have listened to my side and took my case. You are truly a blessing.

Mr. Craighead is clearly a busy man, but always made me feel as I was his only client. He even went as far as to call me on a Sunday during the Christmas Holiday to check in.

Before I begin, let me summarize as I tend to be one of those people that once I get going I talk a while... lol... Summary If you should ever find your situation where you would need a lawyer, then you want your lawyer to be Clayton Craighead. He is experienced and hardworking. Details Listening Skills - 5 out of 5 When I called The Craighead Law Firm, I was upset and angry and frustrated. I was in a situation where in my eyes the solution was simple, but the other party was not interested. The first thing The Craighead Law Firm did was allowed me to express all of my anger and sadness and frustration first. I was an emotional basketcase, but if you have ever found yourself in a situation where you might need a lawyer and you believe that you are right, you already know how emotional the experience can be. Setting Client Expectations - 5 out of 5 After listening to my emotional frustration and then allowing me to express my concerns, The Craighead Law Firm listened to those concerns and asked relevant questions. The item that is key here is that I was not looking for someone to just say, Yes, they agree with me. I was looking for someone with integrity and the courage to say Yes, you are right or No, in accordance with law, you are wrong. So if you are just looking for someone to tell you what you want to hear, then try a different lawyer. Buuuuuut if you are looking for a lawyer who is going to listen to your concerns and set your expectations appropriately on what is true and what is not true as it relates to your lawsuit and the timeline, then The Craighead Law Firm is who you want to go to for your legal matters. Responsiveness - 5 out of 5 I have always felt that it is important to allow professionals to do what they do best, buuuuut I still want to be in the loop on key decisions. I believe in this experience I was included on the key decisions and for the key strategy ideas, I had input on those ideas. It was nice to not have to do alot of follow up to ask if the lawfirm had contacted the other party and what was the other partys feedback. The Craighead Law Firm provided that feedback in a timely manner without me chasing them. Overall Experience - 5 out of 5 We live in a very interesting society. It is equally unfortunate that sometimes a resolution is not as straightforward as it should be and you find yourself needing to get a lawyer to help the other party understand that you are serious and that you are right. But the other item is also unfortunate which is that if you go by the media and of course the number of horror stories associated with lawyers, it is easy to view them as all bad people and the list of adjectives is too long to mention. I can not speak for those other individuals nor their cases, but I can say that my experience with The Craighead Law Firm has been positive and that he handled my case with integrity and the highest of ethical standards. If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation that you should need a lawyer, I recommend that you reach out to The Craighead Law Firm. It was a truly refreshing experience and I am so happy that my case is over. Oh... One last thing... Even if the case would not have resulted in my favor, I would have been disappointed, but I would have still have been happy with the positive experience with The Craighead Law Firm as I believe that the firm was doing everything within their scope to resolve this item. And thats my two cents.... Hope you find a solution to your situation. Peace. Mark

Its never an easy task when looking for an attorney. However Craighead law firm gave me so much comfort in handling my wrongful termination case. Hes very intelligent and went above and beyond to make sure my situation was handled properly. Im sure this law firm is very busy however I was never rushed or ignored. I was always given respect with one on one service. Thank you for all the time and hard work and many phone calls and emails.
