Glad I hired her

Even though I have an advanced degree and am a professional, I was nervous hiring a lawyer. My Husband, who had multiple affairs wanted me to pay him alimony. From the first time that I met her Susan made me feel at ease (even though she was kind of blunt in telling me what to expect). . My Hus...band seemed a little afraid of her when we were in court and at mediation. She ran circles around my Husband's attorney and made him look pretty stupid in court. I am glad that I found her.

VERY GOOD ATTORNEY, HOWEVER; WHEN SHE'S DONE SHE'S DONE

I hired Susan to handle a child support matter. I didn't receive a dime until I found that my ex came into an inheritance. I found her via internet, interviewed and retained her. I was living out of state at the time. She got me every dime and I appreciate that very much. However, when he stopped pay...ing and burned through all of the money, she basically dumped me. We did go to court and got an order for him to go to jail for 90 days if he didn't get current within 72 hours. He never got current and I've never heard back from Susan. Also, in 7 years I was the only one to ever show up for court when the state of Florida was handling my case. Susan arranged for a hearing when he started getting behind and skipping again. I did not receive notification and was out of town during the hearing. She called the morning of the hearing to be sure I was going to be there and gave me a ration of poop for it. It was not the first time her office did not notify me in advance of a court date. I didn't appreciate that and I don't appreciate being dumped because his money ran out. He needs to pay consequences and it seems she doesn't want to see to it that he does. She is a good attorney but seems to pick and choose what she cares to have enforced.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
