Poor service provided

Do not use her. I have been patient and today was the breaking point. My son adoption was suppose to be an easy process and it was far from it. First problem she wouldn’t respond when I asked for updates so I took it upon myself to take off work and go check why it was taking so long. Got to the cou...rts to find out they sent her a correction letter and she never responded. So I looked at the paper work submitted and the dates were wrong and names. Now we filled all paper work and she had all the correct documents (birth certificates marriage certificates etc) so all they really had to do was copy and paste and couldn’t do that right. So I emailed her letting her now what was wrong and how it needed to be correct. Fast forward I look at the final adoption paperwork and dates are still wrong. Reached out to her and advised the final signed adoption paperwork needed to be corrected and advised that we still didn’t have my son birth certificate. She claimed she would get it fixed here we are almost 2 months later and I’m having to do leg work again because vital records sent her a letter 6 months ago advising they need the actual adoption with the raised seal but she never sent it so now I have to drive to Richmond to provide with information and go to the courts to get a update on the correction. Oh and it’s a good thing I called cause she provided vital with the wrong name. Please take this a sign do not retain her if I could give no stars and just a negative review I most definitely do. I want all my money back. And let me state this before she tries to discredit me I know the courts are a peace of work and back logged but they were sending her correction letter with no reply I would give her days -weeks to respond before I had to follow up with another email or phone call and vital records sent a letter to her back October of 2022 and here we are April 27,2023 and I had to drive almost two hours to provide them with the documentation needed so I wouldn’t keep waiting for my son birth certificate. And before yesterday I contacted her April 17,2023 for updates on the the corrected adoption paperwork and birth certificate. And before then the last time I heard from her was March 2,2023

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
