Can't judge a book by its cover

At first, Kathleen seemed very cool, down to earth, and with a bit of nasty in her (which is what I liked), She seemed to take a real interest in my case, but in hindsight, it was only a sales tactic. Granted, she might be better for some than me, I am a guy, fighting for custody for his kids. At fir...st, she agreed to be flexible with me about payments and starting off my retainer prices. That later changed as we got rolling. I felt nickeled and dimed, and a good amount if cash got eaten with my improvement to my case. And, as far as my case went, I never felt like she engaged me in wanting to know what was going on. I liken it to a doctor and bedside manner. I think everyone wants to a doctor to be straight up, but also ask questions, find out whats going on to better assist you, offer up suggestions about care and health. I want the doctor to engage me, because he/she is the doctor, not me. Same difference, I want a lawyer to propose actions that I can take, not make me feel like I'm intruding whenever I ask something. Bottom line, you can find a better, more caring lawyer. Keep looking. Oh, and, after I left a similar review on her facebook page, she took it down, both the review and the review section. So, there's that.
