Highly Recommend!

Natalie represented me over the past year in my custody battle for my three children. From the very beginning of the case, Natalie advocated and protected our best interests, pivoting my prior decisions into what lead to my victory- Legal custody and rights to relocate to a different state! I appreci...ated her upfront, honest, and very reasonable approach regarding billing and fees, allowing me to plan accordingly on a single parent income. She was incredibly perceptive of our situation and the personalities involved, and did an excellent job portraying this in court. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sharp attorney who goes for the jugular!

Worst lawyer ever

Natalie is the worst lawyer I have ever retained in my life. She never gave me her cellphone number and when I called the office she was always unavailable and took over a week to get back to me. She told Me to call her and let her know how my first visit with my daughter went and then charged me fo...r that very phone call at the end of the case..... she offerd to do things for me such as filing for custody and I thought she was being nice until I got the bill at the end and realized she charged me for things that I initially wanted to do myself until she offerd to do them instead. She is very sneaky so watch out for her slick tactics.On top of all that she put The wrong name on the custody petition and when my daughters mothers lawyer asked about it she said “well I guess we screwed up “ that’s when I realized I screwed up in hiring her. I would never recommend Natalie to any one she claimed it took 45 minutes to draft a document and charged me $280 for something that my daughters mothers lawyer did in 10 minutes she will take her sweet time with everything because she charges by the hour. Worst lawyer I have ever dealt with in my life.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I completely endorse this lawyer. Natalie is someone who will work hard on your case and be a staunch advocate for you in the courtroom. She tells it how it is and will not back down from a fight. But at the same time, she will work towards an amicable resolution if that is the best outcome for your case. You would be spending your money wisely if you hired her for your needs."

  • 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.
