Unreliable and Unprofessional Experience with Attorney Shelia Moheb

My experience with attorney Shelia Moheb was disappointing. She did not keep her word or follow through on what she promised regarding my case. She told me she wouldn’t just push for a plea deal, yet that’s exactly what happened at the last minute without proper communication or preparation. She fail...ed to review my evidence, didn’t coordinate court scheduling as planned, and caused unnecessary stress and extra expenses. I would not recommend her based on my experience.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
