I worked with Civiltree.com and was impressed with their service. They kept me informed with the process and when things were taking place. I asked a lot too, since the court system in Texas is so slow. They were always very patient and courteous. They really saved me time knowing where to file and how to get the ball rolling. Very pleased.
I have used this site numerous times. I have been pleased every time. Arbi is very helpful and even added a coupon code after I had processed the transaction without it. I recommend them.
They are great. Honest compassionate and knowledgeable... they truly care about us little guys out here..
Terrible company... stay away.
They say they will do my Demand Letter within 24-48 hours. They took 4 days to start it, and only after I called to complain. Arbi told me he mailed the letter on the first of the month, then when I check on the status, he told me he mailed it on the 5th.
They say they have online chat, but nobody is ever available. They say they return message, but they did not. Their voice box is full. This is a terrible company and I will never work with them again.
I aslo used civiltree for a filing in Alameda county, California in winter 2012. I must say that I was impressed with the service received. My case was promptly filed and served; questions always answered. Hope that I never sue again but will use civiltree.
I contacted Civiltree.com in November 2010 for an Internet fraud case in Georgia. I was suing an Internet vendor for not delivering merchandise (<$1000) that I paid up front for. After 80+ email exchanges (I have them all), I have yet to get my case seen in my local court in Stafford County, Virginia. As of last May 2012 I had finally had enough of the lies and excuses of why my paperwork had not been filed or why the court clerk was not willing to work with them... blah, blah, blah. Virginia is backed up, Virginia is hard to deal with, Virginia is different that other States. I called the County Clerk personally and explained my situation. She looked me up and stated that at one point I did in fact have a hearing date, but was never notified by Civiltree and thus missed it and my case was dismissed. Otherwise, she had never received any follow on paperwork from Civiltree or anyone else on my behalf to reschedule. After hearing that, I contacted Arbi Nazari and insisted on a refund of the ~$300 service charge. As of today, 8 months later, I still have not received a refund check. Nothing. I just inquired to my Civiltree POC Arbi Nazari as to the whereabouts of my refund and thought I would do an Internet search for Civiltree complaints and came across this website. I see that Civiltree has done an outstanding job of defending themselves against other complaints, so I thought I would throw mine up here and see what their defense would be in my situation. It is ironic beyond belief that the reason I contacted Civiltree in the first place is because I paid for something I never received... how ironic that my hired "legal" counsel is now in the same boat. Classic. Common Civiltree, just try to defend this one...
I hired civiltree.com for small claims services for Broward county, Florida. The service was very impressive. I will bookmark this company and refer highly.
I used civiltree.com for many services including small claims. Every time they were extremely professional and knowledgeable. I have and will continue to recommend them to friends and family. Could not be happier with the service.
Site helped me find and pursue a lawsuit against a fraudulent loan modifications firm in San Diego county. Civiltree not only conducted the services procedurally and professional, they also located this crook at this residential location to serve him the paperwork (judge was also impressed)! Thank you... I really needed the money and the help.
I paid up front for a small claims court to be filed on May 16,2012 and it is now August 1st and Civil Tree has not processed my case. To make matters worese they said it is being held up by the courts when infact it is not, the courts have no record of it. They done nothing with the courts.
Great service for Harris County, Texas JP courthouse. Thank you so much for the fast responses, and professionalism. You guys saved me money and time.
This shady service dropped the ball and never informed me as to the status of the case. Took three months and had I not gone down to the courthouse to check the status, my case would have been dropped. Avoid Civil tree like the plague. A take your money and do dittly squat service... can't believe they are in business.
Great service at a great price. Almost the same price/cost at the courthouse. Thank you! Saved time, money and GAS.
Since the recent change in clark nevada, I needed help in filing my small claims. Civiltree did a fantasic job and i did not even need to go to court and deal with these clerks. Thank again wish me luck
Impressive Service
Review? It will be my pleasure. I filed a case with civiltree for Washington Oregon, my emails were answered usually within 5min even around 9:35pm in the evening. I cannot express how I apperciate the work done. I needed the money and case was against Fedex. I paid $200 and civiltree filed the case paid the $90 filing fee and the $85 serving fee. My case was settled and i received my check. Civiltree also assisted me with the dismissal.

Thank you civiltree for assisting us with our small claims case in Florida! The service was fast, easy, very affordable as it covered all court fees and serving fees, fast responses, smart staff and a delight process saving time, gas, headache, etc.
I used Civil Tree for a small claims case. They did nothing but waste about 2 years of my time. They claimed that the defendant couldn't be found and threatened me when I posted a negative review on another site... I wouldn't be surprised if there are many other unhappy customers that have just been bullied into keeping quiet.
I had civiltree file and serve a case for me in Dallas, Texas. The petitions were very professional and my defendants were properly served in Tennessee; a service which the courthouse could not perform.
Thank you.

I was very impressed for name change services done by civiltree (case *******) in Harris County/Houston, Texas.

I wanted to file a small claims against BOFA for a deposit given in regards to the purchase of a property. Due to various issues with the seller, etc; the purchase did not go through. I contacted BofA and they would not release my deposit and after talking to family attorney; he recommended filing a small claims and using Civiltree. I decided to file the case myself, went to Van Nuys Courthouse East at 6230 Sylmar Ave in Van Nuys and filed my case. On the day of the trial, my case was dismissed because I had filed against the wrong entity/and served the wrong agents. I contacted Civiltree as referred originally by Awed and Awed, LLP; law firm. I filled out their form and was told by Civiltree to leave BOFA address blank. I followed their instruction and Civiltree filed my case and served the correct party. Upon 2 week after receiving my completed documents and getting ready to go to trial date; I received a phone call from their agent asking me to drop the suit against them and they will overnight my deposit check; although they would not pay for my legal fees, I was so thrilled and impressed that I called Civiltree the same minute to drop my case. Civiltree drafted the dismissal form and faxed it over to my attention. Case was dropped and I received my deposit. I have referred Civiltree to all my family members and friends.
Thank You Ruben Peter Gonzalez
Answer: Why is civiltree not answering phone calls? Why is the 1 phone line disconnected? Why haven't I heard from Arbi Nazari for a long time? Why are there so many good reviews? Where are the reviews about this being a scam company? Who exactly wrote all these good reviews?
