Complicity

She is a scammer like every lawyer. She loved a discount at P1. Everything is blue. She acts like your friend and she will make deals with other lawyers. Oh yes Iacobelli and friends. She knows Abel .. they all know each other and they're all in cahoots together so you cannot find a lawyer in Lehi...gh Valley who doesn't do things together . They will work against you for their own benefit. Divorce is a profit and they will work against you for profit. When they try to bring in master be prepared to be be screwed

Heard It THROUGH The Grapevine

I was in the process of a divorce when I was informed by my husband (thanks to his efficient, professional lawyer) that my lawyer was under investigation for misappropriation of funds. That is not surprising as she never informed me, cut off any means of communication and never completed the work she... was hired and paid in full to do!

Client

I am very upset with this attorney. She not only asked me the same questions over and over again, but seemed not to take notes. Her assistant always made excuses of why things were late or fell through the cracks. She was then suspended from practicing law and kept the remainder of my retainer, which... she did not earn. She really did not live up to her reputation at all.

Suspended from practicing law; kept retainer!

What a crook! She failed to finish the work she was hired for, because she was suspended from practicing law! On top of that, she is trying to keep thousands of dollars which were the unused portion of the retainer. Stay far, far away from this crook!

Be aware of this lawyer

The worst advice I ever received was to hire this firm! Always in a hurry,asked same guestions over and over! Bragged how good she was !Made numerous mistakes especially on settlement documents blamed her secretary. Submitted documents without approval ! Charged major dollars!! Would never recommen...d her to anyone,we made a major mistake and terminated our relationship with her and moved on !!!!
