Ruined my life! Did not protect me!

No parent should ever discover after the fact that their lawyer agreed they’d never spend Christmas with their children — but that’s exactly what happened to me with Wendy Prince. I hired Wendy Prince, the owner of her firm, to represent me in my divorce and custody case involving my two children.... I trusted her to fight for me, explain the details, and protect my rights as a parent. Instead, she rushed my case to a close without fully informing me of the consequences, leaving me with weak protections that have caused years of emotional and financial damage. Here’s what went wrong: Every Christmas gone – Without my clear understanding, she agreed to give my ex every single Christmas with our children. I was never made fully aware of this before signing. No loving parent would knowingly agree to that. Minimal parenting time – She accepted a bare-minimum schedule (alternating weekends + one midweek overnight) without pushing for more equal time, despite no safety or logistical concerns. No enforcement protections – My agreement had no automatic make-up time or penalties if my ex denied visits, which has happened repeatedly. The court has given me little or nothing back each time. Weak joint custody safeguards – Years later, my ex signed both kids up for college and co-signed a student loan without telling me. The agreement had no tie-breaker rules, deadlines, or mutual consent requirements to stop unilateral decisions like this. Boilerplate holiday & vacation terms – The terms were slanted toward the other parent, limiting my vacation time and giving her control over holiday scheduling. Financial exposure – She failed to include protections for shared expenses, leaving me responsible for costly “shared” bills I never approved. Because of these omissions and poor negotiation, I’ve lost irreplaceable time with my children, endured years of stressful and expensive court battles, and been left vulnerable to financial decisions I had no say in. What I went through, and all the time I’ve lost with my children, is unforgivable. I have been completely devastated by the outcome of this case. I would never want another parent to experience what I have. If you value your relationship with your children and your financial future, I strongly recommend NOT hiring Wendy Prince or her firm.

tough advocate when she needs to be

Wendy and her associates got a modification case in my favor when supreme court's family services laughed at us believing my ex's lies, overcoming all odds. ... And most importantly, she can punch hard but she also knows how to be a fair mediator between two opposing parties.

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.
