Cunning, Clever, Competent Attorney

Waste of time & money
I hired Ms Saunders after she was referred to me by a friend. My calls were infrequently returned and I was often given inaccurate legal advice regarding my parenting plan. Complete waste of time and money. She kept every penny of my retainer despite not doing anything to earn it. Even her itemized b...
I routinely return client phone calls and communications. I also advise my clients as their individual case dictates. The fact that you didn't like the honesty of my legal advice did not make it inaccurate. The time put into your case was also documented and billed appropriately.
"Camellia was opposing counsel on what could have been a difficult divorce case. However, we were able to work together to get a amicable resolution for both parties and in the most inexpensive way possible for the clients. It was great working with another attorney that wanted to do what was best for their client without a lot of the unnecessary steps and expense of a contested divorce. Great to work with and against. Very knowledgeable in her areas of practice."
"Camellia is knowledgeable, diligent, and experienced, and I recommend her highly to anyone seeking legal assistance in a divorce or child custody matter."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've had many cases against Ms. Saunders. She always proves to be smart, tough, fair, and an advocate for her clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. She is compassionate, competent and committed to excellence. Very good lawyer."
