borderline legal malpractice

attorney I worked with on my discrimination case demonstrated 1. substandard effort to represent me as i was told in a dogmatic fashion my case was not that strong because i don't have a smoking gun. what he considered smoking gun was that i was not called the n word and i did not have a noose on ...my desk. such a narrow dogmatic approach to place value on a case. if its not extreme situation then it cant be a valuable claim and small . i consider failure to promote extreme especially when it was obvious and easy to prove i was more qualified. settlement without a fight is imminent in this firms business model. 2. conflict of interest as their financial interest in settling low compromises their ability to act solely in the best interest of the client. philosophy is get something now than nothing or less later. 3. inadequate investigation and Discovery of my case. failure to understand the fine details as they are not important when trying to settle low which often times equates to determining the cost of opposing party legal fees; your settlement is no more valuable than the cost of the opposing parties estimated legal fees. 4. poor strategy. not much strategy other than settle quick. they have no interest/intention in dragging your claim out because the longer they have to work on the case and put hours in the less profitable it becomes as the probability of summary judgment being favorable is low as a employee compared to the employer.

Worst lawyer period

I hired her for my disability discrimination case where I was fired by a former employer while I was on FMLA. She does not care about you and leaves you completely in the dark. I called to get an update every single day just to only get a hold of her paralegal and never her. I was told that I had a v...ery strong case just to be emailed that the case had been dropped and not even told. DO NOT RECOMMEND, and she should not practice law anymore. Utter disgrace to justice.
