Last Minute and unprepared

Heather Embrey was recommended by a colleague I work with, I met with her and asked her who she thought the best attorney was int he area for my case. She stated that no other attorney will fight like her. I retained her services. I am a busy professional, I hired her to put the roadmap together an...d assist with the details, You guessed it , it fell 100% on me. Where I became upset was when I was notified of the first hearing and I felt unprepared, never did she or her office reach out to me in the 2.5 month's they had my paperwork to state what was needed, she arrive disorganized and not prepared we looked horrible compared to the other attorney who was the opposite. She was brash with me and unprofessional. Court Case took place I stated to heather that we need a reset. three weeks pass, nothing, night before I get a email literally laying out the order, I had some disagreements and really wanted to discuss but felt stressed and under a time constraint. I asked her to fix some things. Midnight a email comes across basically advising me she is terminating our relationship. I must say, that I think this is her Mode of Operation 6,000.00 dollars later. I would say that Ms. Embrey is probably the most unprepared attorney I have ever witnessed and was horrible in front of the Judge. I would state to anyone please find an attorney that will guide you, will respect you and will have the professional experience and expertise to navigate you through this most stressful event.
