Strongly suggest you find another lawyer!

Borderline incompetent. She spends more time traveling for personal reasons and will not put the necessary time required to support you. She colluded with the children's attorney and presented options to me after she already work out agreements with the other party. After I called her out on it an...d indicated that I was contemplating reporting her to the bar association, she agreed to pay my entire retainer back. Stay away.

Lacks Integrity

She has questioned my grandkids with the same question repeatedly until she gets the answer she wants. She shows favoritism to the primary custodial parent even when they abandon 4 minor children for a Vegas vacation for 5 days. This writer and several others witnessed her inappropriate behavior outs...ide the Erie County Family Courtroom today where she intimately touched the face of the custodial parents paid lawyer Steven Grocott which is highly inappropriate and then lied about it in the courtroom when called out about it. Professionalism is not her strong point. Integrity is surely lacking in this sad excuse of an attorney for children. You've been warned.

Worst attorney imaginable

The most lazy, unprofessional attorney out there. She’s closed minded and lacks compassion. She’s only out to collect money by doing the LEAST amount of work possible. Very weak advocate and overall poor character as a human being.

Home Closing

Very professional, worked diligently with me through a trying last week before closing. Took time to explain information to me and I felt like she truly had my best interest at heart. Also, fabulous staff supporting her. Highly recommend!
