Lack of information

This lawyer including Lipinski, have had my case over a year. I've done all they have asked if me and here I am weeks before trial and do not know anything more than I did a year ago...no mention of any pleas being offered, no preparation to go to trial or depose witnesses ion my behalf...they are ho...lding back info such as conversations with the DA and yet I'm not privy to that information ..I almost feel as though I'm being sandbagged and I will be offered a plea deal in a do or die situation where I have to make it right away...not happy at all

Replied last March 17, 2018

Please accept my apologize on behalf of my old office. I see you were represented by Mr. Lipinski as I did not take clients with those types of matters during that time period. Mr. Lipinski and I were in an office together, but we had separate clients. He passed away approximately 4 months after representing you. I know he prided himself on doing a good job for his clients, but his health may have been an issue during that time period. I would never want a client to have a bad experience. Please accept my sincerest apology.

Will and Living Will Preparation

I needed a comprehensive review of my Will, POA and Living Will situation, and because of circumstances needed these prepared urgently. Scarlett and her team were very accommodating, even though it was over Thanksgiving. Her advice was clear and succinct. I have recommended her to other members of... my family in Florida. Thank you!

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.
