Being that I was going through a Domestic Violence situation and a divorce, this particular attorney was part of a funded programs for victims of DV that could not afford an attorney because of the DV. With that being said, when I was appointed Mrs. Gardnia I was very confident in the beginning. Plan...s were made out with a way and strategy and sonI was somewhat relieved when our first appointment was finished. That was in 2017. I battled my divorce for over 2 years and was completely disregarded when I had quesrions regarding my divorce case as well as the DV charges (which to no thanks to the attorney are still open, he has his guns [thanks ACSO] and there is always a continuation my hearing with my ex husbands attorney Malcomb Douglas, when I needed legal advice for my cases and would reach our my phone calls were returned 3only have an attitude or a disposition of "well because I am funded by the state, all I really need to do is show.up". She was not advocating for the fact I was a "victim" in the DV, let alone that I was even human, or a woman. I was afraid of losing everything I had busted runo for in that marriage, including the money I had brought with me. And ya know what, I lost EVERYTHING. HE awarded the house, cars, money, he was awarded disability, he was given every aspect of my entire being except my kids. Tha k the heavens above that my kids are grown and he is not their dad. I was persuaded to agree on the terms he wanted, I was awarded a vehicle that did not run, a small.anount if money that was well under even $10k and still have yet to receive that, and if I attempt to.reachnout now about this I am railroaded to the point to where I am avoided and told that the case was closed and she was no longer being paid to be my lawyer. The domestic is still an open case that SHE represented me in as it was part of the divorce per the judge! I was screwed with this attorney and in my honest opinion I was treated as if I were an inconvenient waste of time because she was busy with paying clients. Just like I was treated by my ex husband, as an inconvenient existence. I do not reccomend her, I do not recommend her for any type of case. She may be very professional in the beginning and will surely convince you she has your back and that she will fight fire with fire. Well, isn't that what an attorney does? I had to find out my own inform, I had to do my own investigations and when she asked me to give her what I found knowing that I knew what I had was pertinent about my case, she completely disregarded me, and was disrespectful in her responses as far as telling me that I was being dramatic. This attorney is not someone I would ever want on my side ever again. I was screwed. And I never saw it coming. I wouldn't want Gardnia to represent a flea in my dog let alone anyone else. Extremely poor representation.
