Thought I could represent myself in the beginning and after losing big a few times I came to my senses. I consulted 3 lawyers, 2 of which told me that I was pretty much going to be screwed over even with their representation but Stephanie was the only one willing to go to bat for me. I returned to co...

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2009.
Suspension issued in MA, 2009
updated on 11/05/2015This status means that an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a specific period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.
“I was suspended from the practice of law for 2 years for falsely testifying about the nature of a relationship with a former client who was charged with crimes against me. I did so testify out of immense shame, however it does not excuse my poor actions. Having been reinstated to practice law in Jan. 2012, I hold myself to the highest standard of professionalism and ethical behavior. I will never again engage in conduct that falls below that standard.”
