Mr. Sossaman is an excellent attorney. He is trustworthy and has been honest from the beginning with expectations. He has been very communicative, and extremely helpful. I highly recommend his legal services to anyone in the greater-Memphis area.

I would never us Dennis Sossaman. He can't even complete the work that is required by the court. I was in his office, and he was communicating with the opposing counsel using his phone during a hearing. He only works when he has to. He does not like anyone that questions him. He does not know how to write properly. He also does not prepare well. I did more work then him and ended up losing money. He is not anywhere near the $350/hr he charges.
