NOT a wise choice

First off I will say that I was rushed in picking a lawyer and didn't use very good judgment. This one will take you for all you have and not do the work for what she charges. She basically stood by while I stated my case in court. She came to court late on several separate occasions because she had ...other cases to attend to. She doesn't communicate almost at all. I would have to ask all the questions and never got straight forward answers. She doesn't offer any legal advice for your situation. She will send paperwork through the mail as often as she can and charge you an arm and a leg. She has no compassion and will not explain anything. She also gets annoyed and irritated when asked to explain something. During her consultation she will do what she has to and say what you want to hear so you retain her but never actually follows through with what she said. I did "win" my cases but it was in no part thanks to her or her doings.

I appreciate any feedback from my clients. I am sorry you were not completely satisfied with my services, but I am glad you achieved the result you wanted. Most busy family law attorneys have to juggle multiple cases in Court in a given week. I always try to prepare my clients when I will be running a little late due to overlapping hearings. When it comes to billing, our fee letter explains that we bill for all communications. It is important to keep clients informed in writing of all letters, notices, pleadings, etc. I encourage you and all of my clients to speak with me when they are in need of answers or explanations about the legal process or issues with their bill. Finally, you should understand that the attorney-client relationship does not require you stay with an attorney if you are unsatisfied with their services. Sometimes the relationship is not working and it is best to seek new counsel during the midst of the case. I am happy to discuss this further privately so that I may better serve you and all of my clients.

Review of Ann E Endres

Ann has been handling my divorce and custody case for more than two years. Ann is personable, well organized and always prepared. She is professional and explains procedures and processes thoroughly. She is strong and capable when presenting in court, yet caring and compassionate during sensitive s...ituations; in particular, involving the custody of my son. I would highly recommend her services.
