Tasha Simmonds

This woman is a terrible lawyer I acquired her through Marble Law and she constantly had me confused with other people she worked for. Then would she would realize she had the wrong person she would literally tell me oh I was just about to call you that was of course a lie. I would not recommend this... lawyer to anyone. When I was preparing for a hearing with her to build a defense for a child custody/ childsupport case this woman had the biggest attitude when I would try to explain myself to her in regards to what I wanted. As if she was paying me I would once again not recommend this lady. To add insult to injury she would never pick up the phone when I called she wouldn't call me back ever within a timely manner. For example she was suppose to send an email that I needed to fill out as a response to the court on that Friday she said she would send it on her way out the office this women never sent the email and i was suppose to be that Monday. I was sweating bullets waiting on this email I called a text I prayed she never responded until that Sunday. But only to tell me she's at church right now and she's going to call once she gets out. I didn't hear from here until almost night time. Then when I she finally sent the email this lady tells me oh you don't actually need to fill it out anyway. Keep in mind this is after waiting all day Friday and all day Saturday and most of that Sunday. We then have a conversation the following week when she calls to get some information from me and we end up having a sparing match by words over my physical address that the court didn't even request they only had requested the mailing which she already had along with the courts. I couldn't believe the nerve the lawyer I am paying for arguing with me over information that the court isn't even requesting and then she uses this information in the future to get me dropped from Marble Law all together. It went like this she called me late that day after 5pm with the phone on speaker as if she was laying back relaxing and wanting just to rush the conversation as if I was her last stop of the day. I took a lot of offense to that conversation and decided based on the wrong names I was constantly getting called because of her mix ups and lack of following up and showing any concern about my case, I decided to just drop her all together. So I then call Marble they explain the process says it will be no problem asked my what was wrong and I explained to them everything that I had written here. So within less than three days I was switched to another attorney out of Ocala named Brian Laird. Well I received an initial call from this gentleman to introduce himself and he just gave me the run down about what was our next steps and he explained that he would be following up with me. Fast forward a few days go by and I haven't heard back from Brian when I call him he tells me that I had been dropped by Marble law and he didn't know why. So I then proceed to call Marble when I do this they inform me that I was dropped because Tasha Simmonds had said that I had with held information keep in mind this hearing is about my eight year old son. Just to show you how sinister this woman is. The information that she said that I with held was my address which I showed them in an email from her that she already had the mailing as well as the courts but she had got an attitude about the physical for what ever reason when even she stated the courts aren't asking for a physical just a mailing which everyone already had. This woman had made it seemed to Marble as if i had with held information that the courts needed and I then proceeded to send the email proving my point as to how she was a manipulator and liar. I then was called by a woman from Marble named Athena who fought for me and took those emails to her higher ups and I was rewarded a full refund. Needless to say I am letting everyone that I know, know about this woman and her diabolic practices and erratic behavior.

I'm a court reporter with a lot of experience seeing attorneys work. Unfortunately, I had to handle an issue of my own and had the honor of having Tasha Simmonds help me get through a very difficult hearing. First, she jumped in last minute to help me; and second, she was amazing!!! Between Ms. Simm...onds experience, knowledge, and her personal touch, I wouldn't want anyone else by my side. It's hard enough to have to go through anything like this, but having an attorney that you feel is not only extremely knowledgeable AND cares about you as an individual, not just as another case, makes all the difference in the world. Ayo and Iken are very fortunate to have an attorney as competent, caring and hard working as Tasha Simmonds. Grateful to have crossed paths with her. After my experience with Ms. Simmonds, as long as she's practicing law, I wouldn't consider hiring anyone else to defend me other than her. She's the real deal!

Hired Ms Simmonds to represent our company on a civil matter that was being looked at in a criminal light. She spoke with detectives and represented us well at a questioning. In and out in 5 mins with the end result being confirmed as a civil matter. We were extremely happy with how the case was h...andled and would highly recommend her firm. Fair cost, excellent representation.

I hired Ms Simmons to help with a child custody case & can say I would definitely not recommend her services. Not only was nothing accomplished, she kept me on the phone and used other forms of communication to run her bill up. Her advice was not helpful, she was not thorough, and then sends me an o...utrageous bill. There are much better attorneys out there with much better attitudes & approaches towards service.
