A dangerous choice

Regina has a very hard time returning calls, answering questions, remembering her clients names, anything you tell her seems to go in one ear and out the other. She will forget tasks she agreed to complete, mistakes on paperwork, causing wrong names on court documents! She's moved her office at lea...st twice since we hired her. We have paid over $2500 and she never returns my call. She was a good lawyer but she may be reaching a time where she needs to retire. I think we have made a dangerous choice that could cost us dearly.

Do NOT use !

I have had the worse possible outcome and time with this attorney ! If you want your case to be over looked and you to be over charged for staying on top of her at doing her job be my guess ! This law office is not whom you are wanting to represent you at all! I had to beg and plea for help the entir...e time this was dragged out. $8,000 later was not worth it…the defendant was even willing to settle for MORE before court and she turned down the request. I never Got documents on time or informed of my case in detail. I was Told one thing and the defends attorney was told something else after court. This law office is a JOKE and I will be going to the BBB and NC Bar !

Waste of $1500

Regina Taylor was probably the biggest waste of money I have ever invested into. I paid 3000 upfront & only 1500 went to use! She will charge you approximately $40 EVERY TIME you call her. Even though you are calling her to ask her to do her job. She took it upon herself to call my ex husband & she b...illed me for that too! She did NOTHING to further my custody battle. She had zero interest in my case. Just wanted the money! Save yourself the time. Go elsewhere!

Attorney-client privilege and ethics rules prevent me from going into detail about this individual who chose not to identify themselves. First, this is not an accurate description of this matter. All clients sign retainer agreements which outline the fees involved at the beginning of their case. However, in order to be successful in any case and particularly custody cases, a client must first abide by all court orders which include but is not limited to complying with the visitation schedules set by the court and attending court ordered mediation. If an opposing party represents themselves, then the attorney will communicate with that person directly. A clients behavior prior and during the case also dramatically impact the outcome of a case.
