Overworked and No Integrity

I hired Melody for a simple breach of contract case. Melody is inexperienced and has taken on too many cases. She is too concerned with profit and gave me substandard service. She let my case drag on for years, failed to communicate and then she withdrew when she realized she could be liable for bad ...advice she gave. If you are looking for a good attorney, I would suggest you keep on looking.

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.
