Don't waste your money!

Lindsay Sharp will tell you what you want to hear, take your money and then you will sit for a year. We paid a retainer in October 2015, the check was cashed the very same day however nothing was done until February 2016. We have never received a itemized bill (even after several requests) of where t...he funds were spent even to this day! (December 20,2016). We were told the process would take a couple months to get into court and it was delayed for a full year. This attorney did a decent job with my husbands case years back so I hired her for my own case as well as my sons. After being told no more money on my case ( this is after 2 years with no resolution)she withdrew herself and left me high and dry. On my sons case we were told we were difficult clients when we demanded answers. Bottom line.... don't waste your time or money on this one

Efficient and personable

I hired Lindsey for my divorce after my previous attorney dragged his feet for months, then dropped all of his clients. Needless to say, I was frustrated and anxious to have my case resolved. I really didn't have high expectations, but when I finally had my appointment with Lindsey, she patiently lis...tened to my history and the lack of response I had been getting from my prior attorney. She immediately contacted the attorney representing my Ex and within 1 hour we had agreeable terms. I was divorced within 30 days. She exceeded any expectations that I could have had with any attorney! I would highly recommend her, as she was efficient, very personable and allowed me to move on with my life.

Not worth the money

This is my personal experience and feelings. I hired this lawyer to handle two cases. She has never completed either to fullest as requested. She refused to take one case further and second one she filed and I'm in the middle now she bailing on me cause poor communication. She is bailing out cau...se she and her staff failed to communicate properly, and I called them out on it. I gave her money, one with receipt and one I never got receipt. She stated she did what ever for a flat fee. I never agreed and there's nothing in writing. She then decided that she was going to deal with any and all cases. I never authorized her to do any thing else. Not trying to bash her. It may not be her, could be the staff? Either way I spent money never got fully taken care of. The law firm spent my money but no receipts??? Now written or verbal agreement? HIRE AT OWN RISK. Just be careful and don't let them blow you off. If her or staff say some thing I'd check every day. I wouldn't walk away ever with out receipts or written agreements.

Lindsey not only stopped the foreclosure but negotiated a purchase price we could afford

Lindsey was wonderful to work with; she was very patient with us. She thoroughly explained every possible action of the foreclosure process. Lindsey was adept at helping us understand options and clarify a plan that best meet our needs. We were so confused we did not know if we wanted to keep the hou...se or buy and bail another home. Regions Bank was unreasonable. They told us that they would rather foreclose than consider a loss on the mortgage. Lindsey kept us up to date on every step of the way. Lindsey told us from the beginning that our best chance was for her to have the opportunity to negotiate directly with the bank's layer. She was absolutely correct, the timing was in our favor and she negotiated a buyout price that was 43% less than the original mortgage price. She managed to do all this and keep the service charge reasonable at the same time. We highly recommend using Lindsey Sharp to help solve any legal problems you may have.

Family lawyer | Mar 05

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Lindsey and her team are strong opponents and fair negotiators. They don't pull any funny stuff and are up front and that makes our work less adversarial. But don't let her smile fool you - she's a tiger in the courtroom when it's needed with many, many trials in her experience. This particular attorney has an excellent reputation in the area and it is well-deserved. I have no issue opposing this firm when handling divorce, paternity, and similar cases."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Lindsey Sharp since 2005 or 2006 when I was a criminal defense attorney and she was an Assistant State Attorney with the 18th Circuit in and for Brevard County. I always found Ms. Sharp to be reasonable, attentive and a pleasure to work with. I know since leaving the State Attorney's Office, she has had a very active practice especially in bankruptcy and family law matters. The number of recommendations from her satisfied clients here on AVVO are impressive. I know Ms. Sharp to be hard-working, ambitious, conscientious and dedicated to her clients and her practice. I look forward to seeing her continued successful career development."
