horrible

I hired lisa for a divorce, after spending way too much money for nothing, I had to find a different atty. She does not return phone calls, she allowed me to have a motion to compel put on me and my case, I had provided her with all of the necessary information and documents in a very timely manner a...nd way ahead of her deadline for me to have them. When I asked her about this she simply said that the court deadline was just a soft date and not to worry. I would not recommend her to anyone unless you want to be treated poorly and not represented properly.

Run Far Away From Lisa Kleinberg! She is Terrible!

PLEASE! Spend your money elsewhere. Lisa can not be bothered to return messages or emails... I placed more than 32 phone calls to her office during my case with little return contact. Luckily, her assistant knows how to use a phone occasionally. Regarding my divorce; I found GROSS errors in form spe...cific data, and child support payment calculations appeared to be from a generic template and she forgot to change all the blanks from her last case!!! Emails seem to disappear and are scarcely returned or acknowledged. Lisa FAILED to file NUMEROUS papers required by the Manatee County court system to establish my child support order. After a weeks of calling and persisting that she follow up, the only answers Lisa had were the "it's not my fault" garbage answers. I finally had to get my own case worker and file the paperwork MYSELF after Lisa fell of the face of the earth following my final hearing. Lisa was a HOUR LATE to my mediation because (and I quote) "My feet were killing me so I had to run home and change my shoes) I WAS SPEECHLESS! REALLY?!?!? It should have been no surprise then that she was also 30 minutes late to my final hearing, where she also "forgot" my paperwork that had to be turned in! I'm done writing this review because it's just aggravating me again to no end. In closing, Please Please PLEASE use another attorney. I got screwed, no need for you to get screwed too.

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.
