UNPROFESSIONAL

Unprofessional, Incompetent and Unreliable. Please take this as a warning and look elsewhere. Their are plenty of good attorneys in Livingston county. I actually ended up using my husbands attorney to file the QDRO because Heather was so incompetent.

Would Not recommend. Ms. Nally did not advise me of any options or any reprocussions of my choices. I had less than ten minutes of contact with her discussing my case, which did not end favorably for me. She seemed entirely unfamiliar with the consequences or nature of my charges. She was very late i...n returning my correspondence via email. Very uninformative to my future penalties or pending issues involving my case. I was never advised how to state my side of the story, or protected from the untruthful prosecution. Overall I am deeply disappointed in her representation of my case. She did little more than forward my court paperwork and show up to my court appearances. She has absolutely no tactic for negotiating with Child Protective Services, the prosecuting attorny, or the judge in my opinion. The Livingston County judicial system inhumane to any offender and possibly to many families as well. I feel that my rights have been violated and not protected, as I have paid highly for.
