Katherine Bestine

Ms. Bestine is a high priced attorney who delivers low quality service. I think she cares more about getting her name up in lights rather than properly representing her clients. She was ill prepared for an important court date and then did not fully inform me of the details concerning what was said.... This lack of communication caused many problems. If she was away, her staff knew little about my case, which caused me to spend time and money on phone calls to make sure her substitute had the facts correct. She communicated very little with me and acted like she didn't care about me or the outcome. It appeared like she had a bias for the other side. I also didn't appreciate her attitude and foul language. Stay away from this attorney if you want value for the money. She is not worth it.

I used Ms. Bestine for a divorce proceeding that was almost complete. She had court orders that she never filed on several occasions which cost me terribly. When I did speak with her she was short and agrumentative. She often would swear at me! I actually took a friend into the meetings just to wit...ness her behaviour. They were shocked. I ended up terminating my agreement with her since most of my communications with her were to remind her to sumbit court orders that were sitting on her desk for months. My new attorney reviewed my case and was shocked at the mess I brought in. I paid more to here than my previous attorney and she accomplished nothing! RUN!!!!

I was a client for Ms Bestine. There was never a time when she would return my calls, and i didnt call very often, only in an emergency situation. She never kept me informed of anything..i may as well have represented myself. I felt as though she was for the other side at many times. She forgot to ha...ve something put in my divorce decree, and i lost $5,000.00. When my alimony was supposed to stop, she waited 5 months to do anything about it. That was an extra 200.00 per week that was leaving my paycheck, but she didnt care. She never seemed to be in the fight for me, which made me very upset. I often though she was in cahoots with the other attorney. To make a long story short..i lost everything in the divorce, and actually had to pay extra. So i urge anyone that is looking for an attorney, do not go to this firm. It will end up costing you 13,000.00 in attorney fees, and you will loose everyting. OH, and it also took me 3 1/2 years to get divorced. I rate her as two thumbs down!
