Spectacular! Annument granted!!!

My case was for an annulment based on fraud and Ms. Wright took it head on. She explained legal strategies in a way that could be understood by someone without law experience and set realistic expectations for the outcome. She readied me for testimony by providing a list of questions and prepared a...nswers to make sure I would remember to include all of the pertinent facts on the stand. It's easy to be nervous and forget, but since I studied her guide, I was able to focus on facts without rambling on a tangent. Unexpectedly, the judge announced my hearing would be completed on that day when two half-days were scheduled. Ms. Wright and I were blindsided because we expected to have time to prepare for cross examinations. Despite this challenge, she remained focused and on her feet for an entire day and didn't skip a beat. I could hardly keep my eyes open but she improvised, asked all the right questions and kept in the game for 6-1/2 hours. It was a long hard day. Ms. Wright thinks fast on her feet. She's sharp, strategic, focused, has a great memory and has a winning mindset. As a bonus, she is very easy to work with and maintains friendly professionalism. The annulment was granted! Ms. Wright made it happen and I am forever grateful that she agreed to represent me. I would refer her to anyone.

Ms. Wright is Alright with Me!

Ms. Wright returned my phone call within a couple of hours of my email from AVVO. Because I could not answer my phone right away, she left her cell phone number for me to return her call. I reached her right away. Although she was on the road, she listened to my concerns and answered all of my que...stions. She was considerate and knowledgeable. I really appreciated her concern for my case and I will definitely call upon her again.

Still waiting for the remainder of my fee retainer, still being ignored.

This Attorney would generally not return phone calls and emails. I literally pleaded with her to keep me up to date and informed, because I was so desperate about my legal matters, but she simply ignored my requests, except for a few isolated times. Once I fired her, she gave me a final bill, which w...as more expensive than I expected. During our initial one hour consultation, which I was charged for, she did not even have the court order paperwork printed out, which I sent to her prior to the meeting. So she had to take 5-8 minutes and print it out as I sat there waiting; and then she had to read it over. I was disappointed that she was not prepared for the meeting. By far the worst part was that this Attorney acknowledged that I am due the remainder of the retainer, but the she stopped communicating with me. She provided me with the invoice, which even stated that she still owes me, but she simply ignored all my communication attempts, including, to answer my phone calls, emails, and even personal messages left with the receptionist in her office. By the way, the Wright Law Firm, operated by Marcia Wright, has only one Attorney actively working there, which is Ms Wright herself. I was so hurt that she would refuse to give me the several hundred dollars back, since it was mid November, and Christmas was approaching. I could have used the money. It is now January and still not a peep from her.
