Alicia Price Chalumeau

I contacted Alicia to help me with my divorce. According to her it was a simple case because we had no shared property or children and she left me with assurance that I was leaving my divorce in capable, intelligent hands. However, it soon became evident that my case was low priority for her (perhaps because she is a busy person or because it seemed so straightforward to her). I didn't feel like I always knew the next steps or what was going on with my case which was a terrible feeling for me because, even though she assured me it was very easy, I was so scared about the whole process. She was less responsive than I would have liked - often taking several emails to get a reply. Important paperwork was forgotten about or late getting to my ex husband's lawyer. I just didn't get the feeling she cared at all. In the end it became so tedious that my ex and I settled without the lawyers and I just directed her office to file the paperwork. Finally, I had put down a large retainer for her and was told I would be receiving monthly timesheets with how many hours she spent on my case as well as a notification when half of the retainer was used. I never received any of this and assumed that this was because my case was so straightforward she didn't spend a lot of time on it and that I hadn't used much of the retainer. I have contacted her office several times to get the timesheets, invoice, or balance of the retainer back and have heard nothing.

This is the worst attorney that you can get.So aggressive towards own client playing games with other council continuing the case forever .Her technic is always waiting for last minute and going to court for charging for motions and spend entire day in court to get easy money never tried have agreement before hearing .Horrible lawyer and human .

Attorney Chalumeau rarely returned my calls or emails. She was always embarrassingly late to court which cost me $$$. I never thought she was well prepared or cared about me or my case. I found her rude and aggressive. Do not hire her. Skip to the next attorney and do yourself a HUGE favor.
