What an advocate

Ms. McCartney is a dominating, powerful attorney. Her passion drives her advocacy, and in the family law arena specifically, this is a unique gift. She is your go-to, and she’s also a delightful human.

Nope

Ashley and her assistant were very nice and responsive when she was hired for my case. However, I was quoted one thing for services and ended up paying double in the end. After paying for follow-up services she and her assistant were very stale and unresponsive. Taking weeks at a time to respond to... emails and NEVERRRRRRRRRRR returned phone calls. It was ridiculous. They are ok as long as they can milk you other than that they don't care. I would never use them again or recommend them to anyone.

Extremely unprofessional

I utilized this attorney through my company's legal benefit program for a simple traffic citation because I did not have time to go to court and I had a legal benefit. She and her assistant were unprofessional and difficult to communicate with from day 1. She is slow to respond to emails and does n...ot return phone calls. Although my my citation was dismissed, I would never utilize this attorney again.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
