I called for a simple consultation for a divorce and I was greated with a ruse and condescending attorney ever. I felt as I was bothering them. Stay away.

Replied last January 05, 2024This “anonymous” never called and this event never happened. I actually was not taking calls in the first 2 weeks of June as I was traveling with my children.

Scam lawyer don’t waste money
Horrible lawyer with zero pedigree. How she passed the bar is beyond me. She stole my money and my wife took everything from me too in my divorce. Would not recommend.

I didn't f...

Replied last February 20, 2023I am deeply touched by your review. I know divorce is a life changing and can be scary not to know the legal process. People need to do their homework and you showed up prepared. Thank you for taking the time to inform the public about my services and your experience.
