Beware

I used Ms Thomas for what should have been a simple divorce/custody case. Ms Thomas was too busy for me I guess. She wouldn't return my calls and after many attempts at reaching her, she would have her assistant call me back to ask what I needed. While I was on the stand being questioned by my ...ex-husband's attorney (whom she seemed very buddy buddy with) I was shown a paper stating my income and asked if I had not agreed to the amount by signing the paper. When I looked at it I noticed that, No I had not signed the paper. Ms Thomas had forged my name and submitted it. The signature was not even close to mine and she misspelled my name! The attorney quickly moved on. Ms Thomas did not ask for Alimony even though I clearly should have gotten it and also didn't state any facts in rebuttal. She was extremely disorganized having brought one large folder full of papers that looked like they had just been shoved into it. After many months of not hearing anything from Ms Thomas I found out that she had some type of heart surgery. I was not informed that she was ill and not working on any cases at the time. This pushed my case out even further. After 17 months, and way too many trips into the court room for a "simple divorce" my divorce was over there was one thing though, she "forgot" to even mention I was divorced. I had to hear about it 6 months later from my ex-husband that the divorce was finalized.
