Laurie Ann Parker

Whatever you do, do not use Laurie Parker to do a Trust. If you do, this is what you can expect. You will pay a large retainer fee before anything is ever initiated (mine was $3000). Then you will be in a several month process with you attempting repeatedly to get Laurie to return your calls & ema...ils. You will finally have to contact her staff to ever get her to follow up with you. There will be so much time elapsed between discussions that Laurie can't even remember what you discussed previously. She will claim that she is too busy and overwhelmed, she will lie & tell you that she sent you emails when she doesn't & that they are having server problems is why she didn't respond to your emails. By the time we got done we had so little confidence in the final product that we just went to a new attorney and basically got absolutely nothing but a great deal of frustration and disappointment from the experience with Laurie … $3000 completely down the drain! Do yourself a favor & find someone competent who will do a Trust in a couple weeks & at a third of the cost of Laurie. She way over complicates the process and honestly does not know what she is doing. If you could give a -0- Star review, that is what she would get from my wife & I.

I met with Ms. Parker regarding some family trust and family law issues. Our consultation went very well and I retained her that day. After waiting more than 4 weeks to hear anything regarding my trust we finally met, where she stumbled all over her information as if she had not even familiarized h...erself with my trust. It was very frustrating and she even admitted to not being on her game and very tired. She concluded that I needed to hire anther attorney. I made another meeting with her to discuss my family law matter but before we met I received an email with a letter stating that she was no longer going to represent me because she felt she had lost my trust and was sending back half of my retainer for the family law portion. That was fine, except that we never had a conversation about this and she basically charged me $1500 to tell me I needed another lawyer. I called and emailed several times to discuss this matter but still have never heard back from her or her firm. Very frustrating and unprofessional. I hope in the future she will be more forthright and honest with her clients.
