Jeanella M. Baldwin

Jeanella kept telling me I was going to get full custody of my daughter. My daughter's lawyer and the judge both stated that most of the time they do 50/50 custody between parents. And that would mean, me...the only working parent, paying the deadbeat dad who doesn't work, child support! Spending ove...r $2,000 to hire Jeanella was a mistake because she was pushing me into a hole with what clearly was going to be the verdict here, with me paying child support for my daughter who I take care of and support fully and she resides with me. Then Jeanella said she needed more money until she could do anything else for me (this meaning my money ran out) so I fired her and closed my case. THEN...she hits me with a bill! How can you give someone a bill when their money ran out!! Sounds like a scam to me.

Ms. Baldwin completely threw me under the bus which I didn't realize at the time. As we were down to the wire in my divorce case and the judge waiting on her bench for our trial to begin and negotiations were being done to prevent a trial an agreement was made. When the divorce decree was typed and... I read it there was a line in there about cohabitation. When I asked her about it she waved her hand across it and told me it was standard language in a divorce decree. I fell for it. Also no equitable distribution after a more than 25 year marriage. I don't think she defended me to her fullest ability and almost feel like she was more on my X's side. I'm not sure how to have this situation rectified or if I need to just live with it.

Poor representation. Did not keep me informed of what is happening and she does not talk directly to me on the phone. She waits until the day before or after the date to say, oh you need this information when its too late to even help my case. She does not supply knowledge of what is really happening... on the other end. I want to know how she can look at herself in the mirror every day?
