Posted by anonymous | March 13, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Not fair or equitable

Mrs Scales represented me in my divorce. During the trial she fought me in order for my X to receive more than half of all of the assets. She over inflated my portion in order to help my X. She did not fill out the proper paper work during the trial so I could receive 1/2 of what the court awarded ...me. Now I am left trying to hire a new lawyer to fill out the QDRO report that she was supposed to file. She will not work for you. She will charge you alot of money and allow the X to win. Nothing is fair or equitable.

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.
