Divorce

Mandi has neglected to keep in contact with me nor has she done anything to further my divorce along. I paid in cash, up front, however this process has been continuously dragged out for almost a year. I will never hire her as an attorney again.

Posted by anonymous | December 14, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

I have lost $6000

I hired her over 2 years ago. I have not been in court not even once. She does not return phone calls and halfway texts back if she does not block you. Currently I am blocked. She threatened to file charges against me when i demanded my money back. There is no office to go to. There is no office staf...f to speak with. I know I am covered in Jesus name and no good comes to someone who does others harm, financially, health wise or any other way. I know more about her personal health issues then i do about my case. Do not waste your time and more importantly your money. I have literally begged her to help me because I don’t have $6000 to give away. I have been requested a copy of my retainer agreement for over a year. I have not gotten it yet nor have a gotten a court date. My son is asking me everyday when can he come home to his mother and because of this woman, I have nothing to tell him.

worst lawyer

Mandi is extremely unprofessional and will NOT do the work she originally states. She was so energetic during the consultation but anything after that was complete radio silence unless I contacted her everyday, via phone, text, call, email, EVERYTHING. When she did respond it was questioning me on in...formation I had previously provided to her multiple times. Save your money, time and save yourself the stress… DO NOT HIRE MANDI

Hired for over a year and did nothing with the case

When we first met Mandi she talked a big game and had a fun personality, I thought she'd be a great fit as our lawyer but after paying the large retainer fee she went on many vacations, sick leaves, and never responded back to emails or messages and then blamed it on the staff. After over a year of h...aving her as a lawyer, literally nothing was done. I could have done much more on my own and without paying a ridiculous price for it. I really do not recommend her as I felt cheated out of my money and time and did not appreciate the lies and lack of communication as well as literally no improvements or anything done or even filed with the courts after a year of paid services. I recommend taking your time to speak with different lawyers and look into them since you need someone who can do more than just talk a big game no matter how great they make it seem.
