Tiyesha N. Decosta

I used Ms. Deosta to represent me for divorce proceedings. She rectified many of the missteps my previous attny. made, in addition to providing sound counsel overall. I have been so pleased with the results of her efforts, I had her represent me with other legal matters and referred her to others... in need of an amazing advocate...

In working with Atty DeCosta regarding my case, I feel that she is a "no-nonsense" lawyer whom has the capability to get the job done, but fails terribly when communicating with her clients and allowing cases to fall through the cracks. I will not express openly the details of my interaction with Att...y Decosta on this webpage but I would like for others to perform their research before hiring Atty Decosta and I will be pursuing further action regarding my interaction with her.

Attorney Tlyesha DeCasta I contacted her we consulted she pulled me back in and what I mean about that I tend to wander with my thoughts suggestions my questions Ms DeCasta advise me too stick to the facts, answer questions that's only dealing with matter at hand, I only regret about meeting such a ...wonderful intelligence strong attorney is that wishing more people could afford her Ms Tlyesha N. DeCasta

This lawyer does not communicate well, only wanted to email and text. I requested many times a phone call or office visit but weeks will go by with no response MEANWHILE the opposing attorney is sending numerous letters to me. This lawyer never notified the court she was representing me and did NO...THING on my case. I filed a temporary parenting agreement on my own and hired this lawyer to ensure it goes through along with any further assistance with this. I was trying to see my son and his mother was keeping him from me. I was informed a FLAT FEE of $1775.00 for a Temporary parenting agreement or TPA. I paid $1500.00 towards this and was informed by mail later it was denied. I informed this lawyer and she said "because I filed it". She was extremely hard to reach, only responded to emails days after I sent them multiple times, multiple voicemails left with no response. Even after I requested a refund she said she was going to deduct phone calls, which I had begged for and only received after I requested the refund. She kept blaming the lack of communication on her being licensed in NJ as well as NC or my job schedule. I informed her early my job is aware of my situation and I can speak anytime if she tells me a time. She never did!! She has not been returning my calls, has not responded to the letter I was advised to send by the State Bar Association and weeks have gone by with NO WORDS or CONTACT from this attorney. She has not refunded me anything, even though she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING on my case.
