Karen M. Gazda

we hired her to handle a issue that she seemd to give us the idea she could handle it, it was no big deal- she took the money- and let the other lawyer lie continuously she didnt say anything while the other guy made his false case.more over when we infact got a hold of her to find out what was g...oing on she acted as if there was no case at all infact asked stupid qustions that proved she never bothered to look in to facts of the case and was just not a serious lawyer.she not the lawyer to have if you want to be honest.the case has bankrupted the family worst is she knows it. if you need help get a public defender. dont pay someone who doesnt care.

I hired Karen to handle my divorce 4 years ago and to this day I'm still not divorced. As soon as she took my money nothing ever got done. I had to call to get her to follow up on everything and when documents were sent to her from my wife's Attorney, all she did was send them to me. She never revie...wed any of the documents from them or offered any direction in the process. I have just hired another attorney to handle this and was told that I will be divorced in 60 days and the fee is much more tolerable then what Karen charged to do nothing. I will be pursuing legal action against this firm as they did nothing for the money that was collected.

Karen is a terrible attorney. I went to her with a seperation aggreement that another attorney had done for my ex-wife and I and I asked her to review it and advise me where I would get hurt. She gave me no advice and said it looked fine. The simple agreement eventually fell through, kept gettting... ammended by my ex and her attorney and time and again Karen would advise me to agree to the changes. Even after, on several occasions, she would say lets just go to court and have the judge decide . When I agreed to that she would turn 180 degrees and talk me out of it. I went from having a decent seperation agreement to loosing everything, custody, my house, my pension, everything. Thanks for the advice Karen, I should have taken my chances in court. She is no litigator!!! Not really much of a divorce attorney either. Hind sight is 20/20 believe me when I say, use someone else.

Hired her to help with divorce, specifically dealing with home ownership and mortgage issues. She did nothing and offered no helpful advice on the situation. Ended up asking a friend with no legal experience to help revamp my divorce settlement and it was done 10 times faster and in better detail tha...n Karen did. She also used ALL of the retainer and then charged a lot of additional money. To do what - send a letter to the clerk? Can't even get in touch with her directly. Her paralegal does it all.

After more than $5,000 in a paid retainer fee exhausted, an additional bill for nearly $2,500, and nearly 3 years since filing for divorce - I believe I have received no progress on my case. I have no divorce, no written custody or visitation agreement, no settlement regarding the marital assets, on...ly basic child support. I have never seen a judge. I do not reside in the marital residence (despite leaving due to domestic abuse). It seems, in my opinion, that she is either inept or without integrity, she appears not to care at all about me personally or professionally, she appears to have frequently been unprepared for and rather unfamiliar with the details of my case when we have met for "scheduled" Court dates, and I would never recommend anyone retain her. Again, this is my experience and opinion.
