King Law Publishing Reviews

  • Aug 11, 2016

Morgan King is stuck in 1997 with his antiquated website and his materials which are delivered “old school” by U.S. Mail (don’t fall for the false advertising of online, on-demand, streaming video courses – that’s simply not available). It took over two weeks to get his materials just to be left extremely disappointed by the defective DVD’s and high-school level materials.

Morgan King’s website contains false and misleading advertising and his actual “products” (at $1,500 - $4,500) are riddled with audio and video defects which render them unusable. Stay away from Morgan King’s antiquated and defective products as you will NOT be offered any refund once you discover the defects.

***UPDATE: Mr. King has multiple disciplinary actions by the California State Bar based upon various ethical violations committed by Mr. King which “harmed significantly a client, the public or the administration of justice” with “no mitigating circumstances.” (State Bar Disciplinary Action Case Number 03-O-04678 at calbar.ca.gov)– see the bottom of this review for details***

ANTIQUATED, AMATEURISH WEBSITE

The first thing that should have tipped me off to avoid Mr. King was the old, antiquated BankruptcyAcademy.com website which looks like it was built with the original Microsoft FrontPage software from 1997 (maybe I’m too harsh, for all I know it could have been FrontPage 2000). It looks like someone backed up a dump truck full of CLIP ART and just dropped it all over the website. Every other line of text is a different color (alternating red, blue, green) and it has those 1990’s vintage gif-like moving elements (like the flashing lights above the “ONLINE VIDEO” section).

FALSE ADVERTISING OF ONLINE, ON-DEMAND, STREAMING VIDEOS

However, the website clearly states “online video,” “24 hours of on-demand instruction,” “available online on an ‘on-demand’ basis” and “online on-demand streaming video course” while also showing a webcam with the word “STREAMING” running across it for the bankruptcy courses. However, you will later find out that there are no online or streaming videos of the courses as advertised and good ol’ Mr. King doesn’t offer refunds. Therefore, all these claims are false and fraudulent as later revealed by Mr. King’s admission that all online/on-demand videos were previously pulled off his website and haven’t been available for some time.

After my complaint (and his refusal to refund my money), Mr. King acknowledged his false advertising and agreed to take off ONE element of his misleading claims by stating “The word ‘streaming’ appeared on the course advertising-ordering web page, in the upper left corner of a graphic picture of a projector. This image has since been deleted.” He says nothing about the nearly dozen claims that the courses are available “online, on-demand.”

COURSE SELECTION; DISPARAGEMENT AND OVERCHARGING

As a solo practice attorney without a staff, I was in need of “paralegal level” training with the basic bankruptcy forms and petition submission process. Mr. King would later mock me for ordering paralegal level courses. I’m humble enough to acknowledge that paralegals do the “heavy lifting” for attorneys. Unfortunately, I need to do my own heavy lifting and Mr. King shouldn’t disparage people that are looking for assistance.

In over 14 years of practice, I’ve taken dozens and dozens of paralegal courses as those courses teach the “in the trenches” skills that a SOLO ATTORNEY must have in order to survive without a staff and support. Mr. King’s disparagement of my level of skill and my need for paralegal level training is beneath the professional level of conduct expected from an attorney and speaks volumes about Mr. King’s character (as does his multiple ethical violations and State Bar disciplinary actions).

However, no matter what course you order and no matter what your receipt shows, Mr. King simply sends his “entire” package to everyone and just charges an extra $3,000 when attorneys place the order. This is NOT indicated on the site at all and the courses themselves are broken up into “attorney” and “paralegal” course numbers and course levels with different materials and different pricing. Mr. King shifts the blame for this false advertising and attacked me for “gaming the system” by purchasing the paralegal course which is the only course I wanted.
