She was terrible. She didn’t do her job

Turns out she had active assault charges pending from her dui. Look it up. Her mug shot has a black eye .

Never showed up to court and doesn't respond once you pay her

My husband hired her for a few cases and she was good at communication until she got paid then nothing until the night before court saying that 1 time that she couldn't make it 1nd time that she would be late and still never showed up. sent messages to go and wait for her that nothing bad was going... to happen and he ended up getting put in prison, at which time I contacted her she said that she would she what she could do that she was representing him and then blocked me from contacting her. I feel like she scammed us. We will be reporting her to the bar and disputing the charges.

Tough to Reach

Overall, my interaction with Ms. Freeman was always disappointing. She is nearly impossible to contact, and is extremely inconsistent in responding. Sometimes it would take days to respond to time-sensitive information or requests, if she responded at all. Additionally, she repeatedly led me to be...lieve one set of facts when she clearly operated on another. I would NEVER recommend her to friends or family, only to the other party in a litigation. Very dissatisfied.

Disappointing experience

I hired Mrs. Freeman to represent a self defense case . I cannot recommend her services. Reasons are, very difficult to communicate ( can't reach on phone ) I was advised that I should not be concerned with presenting evidence that was twenty years old and this was a mistake . It made me appear to ...be hiding something.

T. Savoy

This experience went really smooth. Despite the headaches cases like this can bring, she made me feel comfortable and at ease with moving forward. I don’t know the laws of King George county but after speaking with Mrs. Freeman I can tell she’s very knowledgeable and experienced at Custody and family... cases. Will refer to others.

  • 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.
