Posted by Peggy | August 13, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

TOTAL FRAUD!!! AVOID HER!!!

I met Joanna at a domestic violence meeting, in 2000. Joanna arrived there with two of her late father’s secretaries, to give a (coached) speech to victims of domestic violence. Joanna was well- rehearsed & she convinced a few of us to hire her, to represent us , in our respective court cases. It did...n’t take long for me to see her fraudulent facade. Joanna could not handle herself, in a courtroom. Each court appearance, she brought along 2-3 seasoned attorneys, from her late father’s law firm, to do all the talking for her. Joanna LIED to me about her skills, experience and qualifications. Joanna also failed to disclose that she was FIRED from her law school internship after 7 months, due to incompetence. This was stated to me by two different attorneys who, at the time, were employed by Joanna’s father, the Late Gary Greenwald. I was also informed by both of these attorneys, that Joanna’s internship required a two year commitment. I am confident that Joanna’s late fathers, pulled some strings and BOUGHT Joanna her law degree! Joanna never worked for ANYONE, other than her late father, presumably, because no one else would hire her. I FIRED Joanna after a few months, because she did not do any actual work on my case, though she was always diligent in finding means to pad the bill. After being repeatedly told by me not to do so, she would continuously call my home, when she knew I was unavailable, leave frivolous messages on my answering machine, then bill me for the calls. Joanna would bill me for HOURS and HOURS of reading time, both from my file and from doing RESEARCH, meanwhile, I saw NO RESULTS, in my case. I threatened Joanna’s late father, Gary Greenwald, with contacting the BAR ASSOCIATION, if the bill padding didn’t stop, my legal bill DRASTICALLY REDUCED & Joanna being REMOVED from my case. Gary Greenwald complied with my demands. Joanna continued to be a thorn in my side, even after Joanna’s father assigned a new attorney to my case. Joanna was caught several times, hanging around outside the attorney’s office, attempting to eavesdrop on case discussions. Joanna was very fortunate, being able to live her entire life of of other people’s earnings. Joanna never earned an honest dime, in her life and neither did her father. Her learned thievery should not be tolerated. Joanna is NOT an honest person. I HIGHLY recommend AVOIDING HER!!!
