Owes me money and refuses to return calls

Hired her for a divorce and the entire case she constantly asked if I wanted to go with someone else (like she didn't want to take my case). My ex was not being cooperate at the beginning and we had mediation scheduled so she told me that mediation would be another $1000 which I paid in advance. We c...ame to an agreement before the scheduled date and didn't have to go. She isn't returning the money or any calls.

Avvo Rating

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.
