Saleperson with a law degree

I have been embroiled in over a 3 year custody battle with a proven narcissitic estranged wife. I was disabled due to a near fatal car accident and am on SSD not SSI. I provided her within 24 hours after her court appointment all docs which were voluminous . After 4 weeks and less then a week to go s...he still didn't review them or have time to speak with me or my law degree mother who drafted all the docs. She racked up the billing for reimbursement for 18B and then conveniently relieved herself as counsel.

The BEST Legal Help I have ever had

One of my previous co-workers recommended a family lawyer that helped her brother, a Curtis R Exum. I was currently going through a long and painfully annoying child custody battle. Curtis was a great help when he gave me advice and even better when he referred me to his associate Abbe Shapiro. Upon ...meeting Abbe she made me feel comfort. She was straight to the point, honest, and an amazing advocate for me. The litigation between my kids father and I was chaotic and I didn't think we would ever reach an agreement. Abbe was with me every step of the way. She really helped me. Abbe took my situation, did her homework and did not allow me to be taken advantage of. She was always polite, on time, and ready to defend. Over the course of the family court battle, she became someone I truly trusted and someone one I truly depended on. I have never met a lawyer as honest, kind hearted, and knowledgeable as she is. Everyday since she helped me and the father of my children come to a comfortable agreement that gave us both the opportunity to be there for our kids, I have been so happy. I am happy to be able to have met someone like her and I consider her a friend due to the way she helped me and my family. Anyone to have her would be lucky. She is a great Lawyer and an even better advocate. I Thank her so much. That means everything especially when I have had other legal help prior that didn't attempt to work on my case the way she did. Unlike the other she was less concerned with money and more concerned about helping her client. For that I am forever grateful. Thank You so much Abbe!!!

Pro bono bust

Babe was assigned to me pro bono. She gave me maybe 5 mins of her time and clearly could care less about me and my daughter. If you don’t treat every client the same and only give your time to those who over pay you you shouldn’t do pro bono work. She gave me horrible advice and didn’t help me what s...o ever. When I approached her before court she was rude frustrated and seemed put off bye me. I would let recommend her to my worst enemy.
