She needs to retire

I have a case going on now in court and listen ms Lisa m Murcia s is not someone I needed to represent my case she doesn’t speak up it’s like she has an agreement with the judge, last time I went to court I saw her coming out of the judges court room with nothing to say to me mind you when we went in...to the court room oh hell break loose she let the judge railroad me then when I tried speaking up to defend myself cause she wasn’t she turned and told me to shut up like if I was a child I had to fire her in front of everyone in the waiting area.

Unsatisfactory Legal Representation

As the petitioner the court judge appointed Lisa M. Kurcias, for the custody case of my then 11 yr old child. During the time of legal representation she got hurt physically and excused herself at a significant time in the custody case. At the initial meeting I expressed that I wanted custody and tha...t the respondent/father had violated a previous order I had in place. Lisa M.Kurcias failed me as a lawyer because instead of fighting for custody, which is what I wanted, she agreed to give consent of custody to respondent without consulting me. That day, before seeing the judge, Lisa M. Kurcias told me that the father/respondent was going to be awarded custody and that she wasn't going to be my lawyer due to medical leave. After leaving the judge's chamber, custody was awarded to respondent and never saw her again.
