Abandoned me as a client

Michelle was working for Prue law and in the middle of my child support case she stopped contacting me at all. I was notified that without notice to me she had left their law group and abandoned my case after taking a 2100$ retainer. She never processed any of the paperwork with CT and left me stra...nded with the majority of my retainer used up. Prune law gave back what wasn’t used however it was beyond unprofessional of Michelle.

Hi Judah, I am glad that you reached out to me about your dissatisfaction. I can understand why you would be upset when it doesn't feel like anything was accomplished with your case. I was under the (I now know mistaken) impression that you were planning to hire alternate counsel. That should have been handled better. Unfortunately, as I explained to you on the phone, while I was working for a law firm, my files were the property of that firm, so unfortunately I have no control over things like what amount is refunded to you. As you see, I now run my own firm, where client's needs will always come first. If you would like any guidance or assistance in getting your matter resolved I would be happy to help. Michelle

Very professional in person

When meeting with Michelle Figfridson she is very on point then this Attorney never returned phone calls. Tried emails with no response. This happened for weeks. Could not be bothered with my case. Did not update information. She also billed hours for work not done.

Excellent attorney!

We consulted Michelle for child custody and financial concerns. We came to her with a lot of questions, and she was able to address each and every one. She really knows her stuff! She was excellent in court and was able to help us get what we needed. She is straightforward, very intelligent, and ...thorough. Afterwards, we had some additional questions and concerns, and she met with us and steered us down the right path. We completely recommend Michelle and will definitely go back to her if we need additional legal help.

Speedy Proffesional Help

Attorney Sigfridson has helped my family establish our wills and secure our estate's and children's security. She has also been very helpful and quick with my business needs of setting up a new LLC and closing on a commercial building. I would absolutely recommend attorney Sigfridson when seeking cou...ncil in CT.

Divorce

I hired Michelle on a recommendation from a friend who went through a very difficult divorce. I found her services to be very professional and her demeanor through the entire process made it as painless as a divorce could be. I was impressed enough that Michelle is also my real estate lawyer of cho...ice. I highly recommend her.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
