Despicable lawyer with complete disregard

If I could leave a zero I would. Sabina has complete disregard for her job and upholding not only the ethical standards she took an oath to protect and defend, but also upholding any sense of accountability. She doesn’t care about the outcomes of her cases and makes clear that she will do whateve...r she pleases, whenever she pleases. Whether this be lying to your face or the court, it doesn’t matter to her because she has no moral compass or character. She has no business representing anyone in the court of law. If you want to work with a professional who takes their career and business seriously, then lokk else where because this isn’t it.

BEWARE OF THIS “ATTORNEY”

If you’ve been assigned Sabina as your court appointed attorney, my deepest sympathies. And if you actually hired her privately, I strongly advise you to reconsider your representation immediately before more damage is done to you. Sabina may hold a license to practice law, but in my experience, h...er courtroom performance was more reminiscent of a nervous intern on their first day than a competent legal professional. She lacked a clear strategy, could not articulate a coherent argument, and seemed genuinely unprepared for even basic courtroom procedures. Watching her attempt to advocate on my behalf was frustrating and frankly embarrassing. Incredibly, she managed to say the wrong thing at nearly every critical moment to the point where I genuinely began to wonder if it was intentional. Communication was equally abysmal. Reaching her was nearly impossible. I left multiple voicemails, sent numerous messages, and tried to follow up consistently only to be met with silence. I’ve documented every attempt, and I am currently filing a formal complaint with the state bar. If you are experiencing something similar, I encourage you to do the same. Perhaps the most frustrating aspect of working with her is the sense that she simply does not care. She seemed disengaged, disorganized, and insincere from the case, as if my legal outcome were a mild inconvenience to her afternoon rather than a serious matter affecting my life. If you’re looking for legal representation that will fight for you, communicate with you, and command respect in a courtroom, please keep looking because Sabina will not be that person for you. For those seeking further details or documentation, feel free to contact me at [email protected]. I’m more than willing to provide proof of everything stated here.
