Response to Jonathan

I would like to respond to Mr. Jonathan's comments. First, I mailed him a contact letter. He never responded. After 3 weeks I called him. He stated that he was out of the country but would be returning in a couple of weeks. I told him to contact me when he came back to the USA, so that we could ...meet and discuss his case. He DID NOT contact me. I further waited almost 3 months with no contact. I filed a motion to withdraw from his case. The other attorneys have set the case for trial. Mr. Jonathan then called me approximately 2 weeks prior to the trial date. I'm sorry I cannot represent a client who will not contact me until 2 weeks prior to trial. Further, Mr. Jonathan did not hire me. I am appointed by the court.

Horrible horrible lawyer

I was assigned this attorney by the court. I changed my number and contacted her office several times to get information and advice on my case and my calls were never answered but once. I left a message with her assistant and never heard back from them ever again. She has since put forth a motion to ...resign as my attorney because she claims she is not able to get in touch with me. And since she technically still is my lawyer, the court clerk is unable to give me any advice or help me out. She is a horrible horrible lawyer.

Grandparent adoption

Robin and I have just started our legal journey together but she has been upfront and straight forward on the difficulties my husband and I may be facing. She is very easy to talk to and you can tell she is confident on legal issues.

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.
