Melissa Larsen

Larsen charged me $2,500 and did not accomplish anything, or even attempt to resolve one single issue in my case. She billed me for reading emails and texts and only filed a couple motions then abandoned me. She never acting on any of the emails she billed me for reading. She never represented me or advised me on anything I kept asking her to. She couldn't even provide a record of work completed to exhaust $2500 retainer in 4 weeks (no face to face meetings). I asked her several times to get the correct income year-to-date of my wife so the child support I am paying could be corrected and she said "that would be a lot of work because she is employed out of state".

Then she told me to go court on 9/22/16 at 9:00 am to have hearing on motions filed in the case and she got the time wrong. She thought the hearing was 9:00 am and then billed me for those hours which were her error as we waited for the other side's attorney to arrive at the correct time of 2:00pm. I asked her why she wasn't communicating with my wife's attorney who had the correct time (who, by the way, has represented my wife for $1,500 for 15 months) and she yelled at me and stormed off telling me to come back at 2:00 pm.

Hiring Melissa to represent me was easily the best decision I made this year. She is a very knowledgeable, professional, and personable lawyer that truly goes above and beyond for her clients. I would 100% recommend her as a lawyer.

Melissa handled the administration of a contentious probate estate with great patience and care. She kept the parties informed and was a consummate professional. I would recommend her for matters related to probate, wills, and administration.
