Anna Avalone

The unfortunate thing is that when you read the reviews here you get exactly what I experienced. And I did not read the reviews ahead of time. I chose Anna based off of my need. Clearly she was creating her new practice or something because it started out with me only speaking to Anna, Months in afte...r multiple unanswered emails I would get contacted by someone saying they were the new secretary etc and wanted me to sign something. Then I would leave multiple messages, multiple emails etc, and wait months again only to meet a new secretary, or assistant who could answer no questions and give no information. Ultimately, She lied. She stated she filed things, invoiced that she prepared things, stated that she was going to do things that she didnt actually do. Once my divorce was able to be filed as a default, she gave up. It was default eligible in May of 2021, I pressed her since then via email and on phone about filing the default so we could get it over with. She promised to do it over and over and never did and finally I gave her a date. October 19th. And never heard from her again. And i sent over 20 emails... "what is happening with the default divorce? Has it been filed?" and received NOOOOO reply. Finally I sent an email threatening to file a grievance and within minutes I got a reply. This time, I asked her, if you have not filed this filing then I no longer need you to which she answered that it had been filed and that she no longer felt like we could have trust amongst each other and we ended our relationship. She then had some people from her office send me new invoices that had new charges on them that were not on past invoices etc. Like others I have read here she also has been holding my file hostage and worst she never sent the paperwork in to the court to take herself off of my case. So, she is also holding my case hostage. Nothing can be done as long as she is still listed as the Lawyer on the case. And the worst part is she NEVER FILED THE DEFAULT... There are multiple things being done to rectify this at this moment and all of them lead to her breaking ethical laws in doing this. I like many others was taken advantage of by this lawyer. My wife was NEVER served the child support papers and we had 3 child support court dates that we went to where Anna lied and stated that she was served but never had the proper paperwork for the court. No affidavit of service means it was never done. Its unfortunate that Ms. Avalone is doing this to people. Please beware of her because I dont write reviews but after what I have gone through and am still going through i felt like I needed to warn people.

I was desperate and confused until we met with Ms. Anna Avalone she immediately provided answers and instilled confidence. I was hesitant to use a younger attorney but she knew exactly the letter of the law and offered intelligent and well thought out ways to resolve my son’s family court case. Ms. A...valone kept us updated and informed every step of the way. I felt secure that she really cares about her clients. Ms. Avalone fought hard to represent our interests. As I am retired she graciously worked with us regarding fees. She really cares, I have had many other attorneys throughout the years but Ms. Avalone far surpassed my expectations. I cannot thank her enough. I highly recommend Avalone Law.

I consider myself extremely lucky for having found Anna to represent me for a family court matter. From our very first call she was able to put me at ease regarding the petition I was filing while clearly laying out how this legal matter could unfold and the potential avenues we could take to ensure ...we presented the best case possible given the facts of my experience. She was kind, reassuring, smart with with her approach, and extremely professional both in and out of the court room. Thanks to her expertise and knowledge we were able to reach a settlement on a matter that was causing me extreme anxiety and stress. I am more than happy with the outcome and have only her to thank for it. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone in need of legal services and representation. Thank you Anna!

I hired Anna for a family matter and was very pleased with her candor, professionalism and how personable she was. She cut to the chase and helped me understand the legal process, which included the good, bad, and ugly scenarios that could happen. She helped me settle my dispute, and I’m happy with t...he results. I would recommend her to my friends and family.
