NON RESPONSIVE - DO NOT HIRE

DO NOT USE THIS LAWYER – SHE WAS TOTALLY NON-RESPONSIVE TO MY EMAIL AND PHONE CALLS. SHE HAD EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE ON WHY SHE COULDN’T TALK OR ANSWER EMAIL QUESTIONS. HER OFFICE MADE SEVERAL CRITICAL ADMINISTRATIVE ERRORS: I CAUGHT AN ERROR ON MY SSN WITH CHARACTERS INSTEAD OF NUMBERS, SIMPLE REV...IEW OF THE DOCUMENT BY A SUMMER TEMP WOULD HAVE CAUGHT IT; THEY OVER BILLED MY ACCOUNT BY $250 ON THE FIRST BILL; THEN SENT THE WRONG BILL AND DEMANDED PAYMENT. I WAS PREEMPTED ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS FOR SCHEDULED PHONE CONVERSATIONS. SHE TOOK AN EXTRA MONTH TO FILE PAPERWORK BECAUSE SHE FAILED TO CHECK IF HISTORY FILE WAS AVAILABLE ON LINE. FINALLY, WHEN I ASKED FOR A FACE-TO-FACE MEETING SHE COULDN’T BE BOTHERED.

Buyer beware. I have almost the exact same experience as the guy listed above. My case got dragged out only because she wanted more money. She refused to talk to me and I had to deal with her assistant.
