Unresponsive Attorney

If you are looking for an attorney that works normal business hours, this is not the right attorney for you! I used Ingrid for a divorce case and she is always postponing without checking with me first. Claims to be in court all day, but I was told by reception she doesn't come in until after 5 pm.... Wish she would have told me that during the consultation instead of misleading me. Sent her documents and she keeps requesting the same documents again and again. Very sloppy and unorganized!!!!

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.
