Slow and unresponsive

I paid an initial consult fee and large retainer fee. Had an in-depth discussion with her in early Sep to outline what would be included in draft letter to dissolve a domestic partnership . She seemed to be clear on the law and my rights and indicated she would provide a draft letter for my review;... 3 weeks passed with no letter. Also, followed up several times with her secretary and received no response regarding an estimated timeline. I decided it was not in my best interest to move forward with an attorney who was clearly unresponsive regarding my important legal matter. Of course, a portion of my retainer fee was returned due to the work she supposedly did (i.e. draft letter) . Absolutely terrible and frustrating experience and cannot recommend.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
