Lindsay Brooke Erwin

I hired this lawyer, and let me tell you I was young and was taken advantage of because she failed to explain custodial parents laws and options . She wasnt thorough and failed to fight for me. She basically burnt me because my lack of custodial parents laws . She said I couldn't claim my daughter... every other year and basically was on the other lawyers team. I would let a court appointed lawyer if that was possible if that tells you anything. Still to this day I'm burnt when I owned my house and had daycare for my daughter. She switched sides basically for the woman. Telling me the judge wouldn't go for my opinions and it would cost me more money and we wouldn't get split custody . This was in 2010. She's a lie and doesn't make good decisions and will have you in a bind if you are young and don't know laws. If you want results, use another lawyer don't get burnt because your lack of knowledge!!!!!

Lindsey did a FANTASTIC job for us. She was very knowledgable and had a good rapport with the Judge. She did for us what our other attorney couldn't do. I have recommended her to several friends who have used her and they got great results also. You know, some people will give a bad review just b...ecause they didn't ultimatly get the judgment they wanted at the end, but that's ok....because I know a lot of people who think Lindsay is a great attorney and I will continue to refer business her way.

I was falsely accused of harassment. I didn't have enough money for a good attorney, so the city of phenix city hire her as my public defender. She refused to ask for discovery for any evidence that was against me. I was the one being harassed and I was falsely charged and the police knew it. During ...the testimony my son should not had been mentioned because I was the one charged, this guy accused he and Irwin told me that I needed to control my son. That made me mad she wasn't in no position to judge my son like that, she was suppose to be defending me against the other side, She was really hostile toward me during court and she influenced the judge against me to by not defending me properly. She said she hurt her knee and had to go to the doctor, so I was left with nobody but by myself with these criminals. The judge found me guilty but gave me a 90 day suspended sentence, but the police still took me to jail and Irwin abandoned me left me and my son in the cold. The police allowed my false accusers to watch them take me downstairs to have me arrested. Even though the judge didn't order me to jail he just gave me a fine, but the police hated me because of what my false accusers said about me and wanted me to suffer. Plus Iwrin wasn't there to protect me so I wouldn't end up in jail, which the phenix city police department as a habit of putting people in jail who can't pay their fine. But I wasn't allowed to pay my fine or call my mother to pay it, my son and mother told me that Irwin or the russel county sherriff office didn't tell them what time to bail me out. It was only after 7:30 pm when they told me we had until 4:30 to bail me out even my lawyer Iwrin wouldn't tell my mother, she let me stay in jail to suffer without any of my medication. The police chief also lies saying the judge ordered me to jail, but my son was standing outside and he heard him say he was giving me a suspended sentence. This was on 09/12/2012. My mom complained to the city manager and I was released the next afternoon. For some reason they wanted me to suffer and make me suffer. I 00% blame Iwrin for not defending me properly, and she abanded me. My mother did help me get a real lawyer, and he was able to get the charges dropped before the trial in spring of 2013 because I appealed it. 30 days after the charges were dropped Iwrin left town and closed her office in phenix city.

I would never never recommend Lindsey to anyone. She definitely dropped the ball on a lawsuit I filed against a car dealership. At first she seemed very knowledgeable however she was horrible at keeping me informed and updating me on the status of my case. Because of her I did not win my case. I lost... my case simply because I did not have a copy of my phone records. I would have never thought the judge would have asked for these, but she should have known what they were going to look for. The judge was definitely ruling in my favor however I did not have the phone records I needed. In the judge's own words, he told the other party that they were lucky I did not have those papers because they would have been paying me $50,000.00 in punitive damages. After being severly depressed bc of everything i was going through I called her to see if the judge would give us time to get the records. The judge gave us 30 days to get the phone records. After trying myself retrieve them from tmobile they said they needed a subpoena. After trying to contact her several times she said she would call and never did. Shebwas in vacation the last week I had left to get the records and she never called me back.... she is very unprofessional and lacks drive. She even called me one time asking if i ever paid her for services when i came to visit. She made me send her a copy bc she did not beleive me. I have not given uo on my case although this was almost 3 years ago. She seemed stumped in the court room as if she had nothing to say, i was embarrassed I hired such a young un professional attorney. Do not recommend her AT ALL!
