Audrey A. Jefferis

Hired Mrs. Jefferis for my divorce, she takes proud on being a certified lawyer, therefore, her fees are very high. Billing is super fast but service is really poor, nobody answer your calls or emails, after 15 months I had to get a new lawyer to handle my case. Don't waste your time or money and sav...e your self more headaches than the ones you already have.

I hired Audrey for a year to deal with a custody modification. In that year, she was prompt to collect her fees, and the discovery requests my ex was pelting me with. Yet, after she fired me for using a crowd funding site to be able to pay her additional trial retainer fees (because she was unable t...o settle the case through mediation), I hired another attorney, who immediately got to work sending my ex her own discovery requests, interrogatories, and mandatory disclosure. Audrey didn't make even one discovery request, and when I asked her why she wasn't doing to my ex what his attorney was doing to me, she said, "We're not going to play that game." BUT THAT'S THE GAME OF COURT, and had I continued with her representation, I'd have likely walked into court unprepared, with weakly argued points, and lost majority custody of my daughter. We'd have walked into court relying on only the depositions she conducted, which were worthless based on her questioning. I was upset when she fired me, but I resolved the case with my new attorney in mediation, for 1/5th what she was charging for trial retainer. Under new representation, I also saw all the opportunities the law had for me to avoid trial, that Audrey failed to tell me about. Her staff turned over 3 times in the year I paid her! I lucked out that she fired me, but I'd have been luckier if I'd trusted the few negative reviews, instead of my gut, which liked Audrey's personality.

Audrey made ALOT of promises but never kept them... she was NEVER available and basically told me off for making several attempts to contact her. Several problems with putting together the final order, so much that it took about a month to get things right! She talks the talk but DOES NOT walk the ...walk... I would never recommend her for any case.
