Alexandra Burkett

So glad I chose Alex after having to go back to court again after my divorce was finalized. She is very knowledgeable of the law and was very easy to talk to regarding my concerns. Her staff were always extremely helpful and also well-informed regarding my case. Due to her diligence we were done... quickly and with great results. Not to mention her fees are very reasonable. I have recommended her to several people ever since and they have had great results as well.

I hired Alexandra 14 years (6/17/2009), and paid in full and up front, to get divorce money issues done. I told her I wanted this done and over with ASAP. Now 14 years later, I still have nothing. Very very few phone calls, I've asked for acknowledgements of receiving things I have mailed to her, and... get nothing. She can't be reached, for phone calls, I talk to who ever answers the phone. I ask her to pass on information, and tell her to have Alexandra to call me with some kind of updates. I get nothing! 14 years is absolutely a ridiculous amount of time for a court order to be awarded. Not sure what the next step will be, but I can say, I'm not waiting another 14 years. If you want something done quickly, I have to say, hire someone else. You could be going through the same nightmare! I called her office today, my guess would be I'm calling back on Monday.

She got me in to an appointment right away and sounded like she really would be helpful in my case. She sounded concerned and talked a good game about all the ways I could do great in court and how easy the case was for her. In our very first appearance in court and she sounded really unprepared. The... other lawyer walked all over her. It was so bad and I was embarrassed. Outside of court she she just complained about the other lawyer not doing this the right way or not doing that the right way or was not filing the right papers but none of her complaining mattered because the other lawyer made her look bad in court every single time. She made ME look bad. All my phone calls to her office didn’t get answered and she didn’t call back so I had to call 4 or 5 times over three weeks evwrytime I had to talk to her. Moths and months of going back to court and lots of talk from her but in the end she gave up and told me to settle. I could have done that without going to court at all and just got the same thing in the end without paying a huge bill. Oh yeah- she saves the biggest bill for the end! Surprise!

I used her for my divorce and was extremely disappointed with her. The way she represented my case in our early meetings was was much different from how it turned out. I believe that she told me what I wanted to hear in order for me to retain her. My divorce was uncomplicated and should have been e...asy, but I felt that she hindered it's progress in order to get more money from me. I actually ended up paying about $5,000.00 over what she quoted me and when I questioned her, she said that I'd get some money back. I never did. She was also very hard to reach and did not keep me well informed. I also found her to be unprepared for our meetings. She also took almost 2 years to do the QUADRO, which I feel was excessive. She never made me feel that I was a priority and can honestly say that I often felt like I was at battle with her as much as I was with my husband and his attorney. Do yourself a favor and find another attorney. There has to be better ones out there.
