One star is too many

Was referred to Parise from a family member to resolve custody issues because she was supposed to be "tough". After reviewing my case she said there were violations from ex that we had a case for, took my retainer and proceeded to do nothing. rarely returned emails, failed to file other offenses ag...ainst order, often times did not have slightest clue what we discussed weeks before or what was even in my agreement in the first place. When called out on this two months in told her I was going elsewhere and she told me she was a "rockstar" and had been caught up in a guest lecture and to give he a chance. Regrettably I did and after six more months and a felony charged against my ex she wanted me to sign what amounted to be a worse agreement and still never handled what she was hired to do! Stay away

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
