Audrey R. Monaghan

I Recently Hired Attorney Audry Monaghan to help in my Child Custody Case and She did a an Excellent Job! Attorney Monaghan Really Cares about her Clients and Fought for me to get my Child. She is Dependable and has the experience it takes to get the Job Done! It was a Pleasure working with you and I...’ll definitely be Referring you to My Network!!!! Thank you!!!

I attempted to engage the services of Ms. Monaghan. Following our initial free phone consultation, she accepted a large retainer fee prior to providing the contract. When I received the contract, I realized she had misrepresented its content. I requested she alter the language to reflect what she had... represented during our consultation. Following 2-3 weeks of mostly unanswered communications striving to reach a meeting of the minds and being in need of an attorney, I requested a refund. She finally responded by attempting to retain a portion of the fee as per the written agreement that remained unsigned. I was forced to dispute the entire charge with my financial institution. She fought it and lost. Then, she charged me for one hour of work and the 3% credit card fee for accepting the retainer and returning it. When the financial institution signaled it was about to decide in my favor, she created a receipt claiming the charge was for a one hour phone call which never took place and would have been more than her normal fee. The evidence I provided was sufficient to resolve the second dispute in my favor. I spoke to other attorneys during the vetting process to engage their services. They all conducted the initial consultation in a more professional manner requesting very specific information necessary to assess the situation and preparing them to begin managing the matter immediately. Ms. Monaghan's approach was very unstructured and she made herself wholly unavailable once she had received her fee. I was quite disappointed with Ms. Monaghan's misrepresentation of her contract, lack of response to communications, unethical behavior when her services weren't engaged, and the time wasted thwarting her attempts to keep money she hadn't earn.

Audrey was fabulous. I gave her my summons two days before the response was due and she quickly prepared a very professional and thorough response and filed it timely. She was compassionate and understanding. She worked out a settlement and got my attorneys fees paid for which was more than I expecte...d. I would highly recommend hiring her.
