Divorce attorney

I hired Ms.Tavss as my divorce attorney as my husband filed divorce because he was having affair and living with the woman shortly after seperating. I was married 22 years, we had two children together. I was a housewife for 90 percent of the marriage and very ill when he filed with the same illness ...now in its advance stages 15 years later. By law i was to receive half of each of my ex husbands 401 k plans and half of the money that we received from the sale of our home. I put the money in escrow from the sale which was only $3,700.00. Ms. Tavss gave my check from the sale of my home to my ex and i receved absolutely nothing nor from our 401k plans. She gave the check that was in escrow in my name from the sale of our house to my ex husband because she said she did not know where i was living but both my children and husband knew and my father who was the one that adviced her to put my half in escrow. She dropped my case after she spent all my money and accomplishing nothing because she said she was pregnant and had to lighten her cade load.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Ms. Maiden on several matters where I was a Guardian Ad Litem. My experience with Ms. Maiden is she is always concerned for her client's best interest. Ms. Maiden is conscientious in her responsibilities to her clients and to the Court. I have also had Ms. Maiden on the opposite side of the case. She is easy to work with and always professional, but a formidable opponent. I have a great deal of respect for her and learn something from her each time I have a case with her."
