INCOMPEDENT Ect ect...My opinion..PURE GARBAGE

BEWARE THIS ATTORNEY IS TREMENDOUS GARBAGE. SHE WILL REFUSE TO REPRESENT CLIENTS AND SINKS HER CLIENT AS SHE SUFFERS FROM SEVERE DISABILITY. FORWARD ALL COMPLAINTS TO BAR COUNSEL. MY OPINION IS THAT CLIENT CASES MAYBE POSSIBLY SOLD OFF TO THE OPPOSING PARTY. IMMENSELY INCOMPEDENT. CONTACT THE MARYLAN...D STATE POLICE IF YOU FEEL THATBYOUR CASE WAS POSSIBLY SOLD. PURE INCOMPETENCE IS THE PRECEDING FACT. ITS VERY POSSIBLE

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.
