Alexandra Burkett

After hiring another Attorney that wasn't doing anything for me, I was recommended to Alex and was glad I was! Even tho it was just a counseling appointment she took the time to talk to me and answer and advise me on many things my attorney didn't! I wanted to change Attorneys immediately but rathe...r than take my money, she advised me that I was almost at the end of my case and it would be a waste of money for me to switch. I was VERY impressed and have recommend her to a friend of mine who is starting the divorce procedure. Thank you!

I met with three other attorneys before hiring Alexandra to represent me in a contentious divorce. Not one time did she allow me to feel that I was on my own. Her support was instrumental in helping me through the emotional side of a divorce. She recognized that a man could be in an abusive relati...onship and offered encouragement when I needed it. It was obvious during and after court proceedings that I had someone in my corner. At no time did I feel that Alexandra was not sincere. I thought a man had no chance in court but found this is not true. Alexandra was an excellent choice for me.

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 also hired Alex as my divorce attorney. During our first initial consultations, she promised that she would fight for me. Thousands of dollars later and after I hired a new attorney, I received what I should have when I first filed. She is an attorney who will tell you she will fight for you, bu...t when their is a battle to be fought over your rights as a parent, she will succumb to the opposing attorney and still bill you, while not fully representing you. It was an eye opener about her character when she started representing my former spouse and her attorney instead of representing me and my rights as a parent. Do Not Hire unless you want to pay thousands of dollars to be misrepresented.
