Posted by Danielle sloan | February 02, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

horrid job. PLEASE READ.

Cassandra Strunk was hired to handle a custody vs. DSS case in which I was denied all due process and my husband who is in law school, and I lost our son permanently. She gave me the papers to sign away custody and told me I would take this to custody court and coerced me into signing away permanent ...custody of my son. Her axact words, "you'll just have to sign this and take it to custody court, it'll happen this was anyway" a direct lie. She also came to several court dates and said and did nothing to defend me during and even said next time we will do this and this just to not do a thing. In the end I myself against her advice proved myself to not be on or have done drugs with a 15 panel drug test dating back a year. she allowed them to say guilty and that I'm an alcoholic and I don't even drink. alcohol was actually on the 15 panel drug test which she refused to defend. she also charged me almost 10,000.00 while doing all of this. I believe she threw me under the bus in order to try and make herself look good for DSS. She did an internship for them and I didn't know until after. She also tried billing me for nearly 1,000.00 after I fired her and is probably trying to persue that cause I didn't and am not paying it. She ruined my little babies life. All over her own personal gain. He had never spent a moment away from me. and still cries and has behavior issues every time he is taken away from his parents. I wish that zero stars was an option, truly.

Cassandra Strunk, A Very Good Attorney

I hired Cassandra to assist me with a divorce. I found her to be very professional and very personable. She presented herself very well and told me from the start exactly what to expect, when to expect it and what it would cost. She answered my questions and explained everything in a way I could u...nderstand it. She was very patient and kind and understanding. She told me exactly what she would do and that is exactly what she did. I must say that I found all the others on her staff to be very professional, as well. I am very glad I went with Cassandra Strunk and her team to represent and assist me.

"Cassandra embodies the ideals of an effective family law attorney. Her empathy for each individual client's situation combined with her unparalleled use of the law makes her a valuable asset to any client inside or outside of the courtroom. Honestly, her best quality is that she comes across as a sweet and innocent young attorney that tricks opposing attorneys/parties. She will posit things in a way that forces the other side to think they are getting what they want...that is until Cassandra lays down the law in a courtroom."
