Lack of Service although Payment Processed

I am a client of this attorney. I visited her in August regarding an issue. She agreed to provide a service consisting of writing a letter to a neighbor about an issue and providing the letter to me for review before sending. At that time she verbally gave me the cost. I paid. The check has been... cashed. To date, no letter has been recevied for review and there has been no response to more than 10 voicemails, several emails and 2 visits to her office with message left with the receptionist.

Avvo Rating

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.
