Whitney Rae Lonker

Stay away from Whitney Lonker. She will make sure to drag you to an endless nightmare. I found that out too late. I dug out her online reviews 3 years later since I hired her to work on my divorce case. She was torching me for 3 years, just the same as the other victims claimed in their reviews. Ther...e were many people in the same boat if you dig if deep of the cases she handled. I'm not particularly eager to do online reviews, but I have to do this one. I was an immigrant with insufficient English, and the poor acknowledges the American system back five years ago. She faked empathy and kindness at begging, and then she changed to an ultimate person after she received your money and do nothing. She tried several appointments with me, but I have been rescheduled over 50 times in 3 years (I'm not exaggerated), and I only met her twice in life. The first time, make payment; the second time, calm me down, play nice again but do nothing. When she sees this review, I am sure she will reply that I only paid a little money. Well, she offered one payment for one case. Then found out my ex is very difficult to deal with. She won't ask me to pay more or tell me to go somewhere else ( I wish she does that ), at least my case won't take so long. She is proficient in doing this: take the money as much as she can and doesn't care if she can do it. Last year, my boss referred me to the best family law firm in Jacksonville - Lasky law firm. They finally help end this nightmare. They are expensive but worth it. My lesson learned in a hard way: hire a cheap and unprofessional attorney like Whitney Lonker. You actually will end in burning more money and time!

I met with Ms. Lonker in August 2016 to discuss a divorce. After an impressive song and dance, she agreed to take my case. I was never given an opportunity to think about hiring her. She did not let me out of the office without charging my son's credit card for $4000. I called and texted her ever...y few weeks asking how my case was coming along. Never got to talk to Lonker, always had to talk to the secretary. Finally in February 2017, I was so frustrated with no action whatsoever on my case and no direct communication from the attorney that I called, sent a letter and texted her that she was fired and I wanted my money back. Guess what? 6 days later she filed the petition for divorce that was cut and pasted from an old one without my permission. Filed a complaint with the Florida Bar and got nowhere with that either.
