A terrible attorney

I retained the services of Mrs. Patwell and was very disappointed. Mrs. Patwell did not file one motion in my case. She did not have a legal strategy. She did not provide me with any paperwork in relation to my case. She was very negligent furthermore, she was not even aware of when I had to appear ...in court. She recommended her friend to do a home study and she then stated " her friend was not experienced enough". She was very diligent in regards to her payment. I would not hire this lawyer. Don't waste your money

Bruna's allegations are all untrue. Sometimes a client comes to you when their trial is already set and you try your best for them, but they have ruined their own case by their own actions, but instead of being appreciative for someone actually fighting for them, they become angry and blame everyone else. She had several motions filed in her case, she was emailed many documents that were filed. I had to step into years of documents to review. I never had a "friend" that did a homestuday, we hired a professional. She didn't write her court date down and everyone else was present except for her. I was well aware of all her Court dates , and went to all of them, having to leave my family for entire days while I drove 5 hours both ways to try to help her.

Delivered the results that I knew I deserved.

Amber Hill listened to my side of the story, put together the facts of my situation, reached out to the opposing lawyer, and presented the evidence to the court with knowledge and awareness. Her compelling arguments in my case led to the most favorable outcome possible. Beyond that, Amber Hill ...did not waste time, communicated extremely effectively with me. I always knew where I stood with the court thanks to her professionalism and diligence. She did a great job, and I would be proud to recommend her services to friends and family. Thank you!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
