Michelle Ann McIntyre

Do not hire this attorney. This attorney has a reputation of misleading you to getting you what want out of your case that your seeking in your case. She is by far one of the worst scum of human beings out there. She takes advantage of people for their money to the best of her ability between manipul...ation and corruption. Unless you want to spend thousands of dollars for no reason because that’s what you are doing. She doesn’t follow through with anything she says she charges you for things that she says she does but doesn’t. She will try her hardest not to face a judge and settle. In the meantime things you want in your case she won’t fight for all she does is try’s to get as much money out of you as she can till you have none. Then after that when you go broke and spend 30-50k she leaves you with nothing I’ve heard from numerous clients of hers and she does the same thing. She needs to have her license stripped and if everyone who has a bad experience with her needs to her report her to the board for review

Michelle tells you what you want to hear at the initial consultation. Even if she KNOWS that she can't win the case, she will tell you she can. ($$$) She did VERY little to no prep for my hearing and had about a year to prepare! Near the end of all those months, she tells me that - by law - our ca...se cannot proceed. She was wrong! We (client) pushed and it continued. So, clearly, she doesn't know the law! Her billing system was horrendous - giving two different dates for each service line item, billing for things she didn't do (like subpoenas), adding tax to services, etc. When I mentioned that I wasn't happy with her services thus far, she threatened to drop me as a client. She knew she had me over a barrel and couldn't start again with another attorney after a ton of money had been put into her, and the hearing was just a couple of weeks away. She begged me to drop the hearing up until the moment of the hearing. I believe she just didn't want the "loss" on her record and /or KNEW she wasn't prepared. If she knew all that time that we wouldn't win the case, she never should have taken it - and especially asked for a second retainer fee that was exhausted within a week or two. At the actual hearing, she had approximately six questions scratched out on a piece of paper (that I'm relatively certain she did while we were AT the courthouse) to ask the opposing witness. There were approximately three other people in the courtroom who she should have called to the stand to testify as well and she never called any other witness. She had actually told me NOT to bring any evidence that I had spent months collecting for her to the hearing that day because, she said, we would not be presenting evidence or doing testimony at that particular hearing. AGAIN, she was wrong!!! Testimony was taken and I was not given an opportunity to supply any evidence / paperwork, etc. She blew this horribly! Near the end of my time retaining her, I had read a lot of negative reviews about her online (check the various online attorney review sites - Had I seen them earlier, I would have certainly gone with another attorney) which indicated the same problems with her that I had. One person said she lost their entire file! Being prepared doesn't seem to be a strong suit for her. I highly recommend NOT retaining her. She walked away with thousands of dollars for doing relatively nothing on my case.

Michelle might not be the cheapest lawyer around but she definately was the best. 9 years ago my daughters mom tried to abscond with her setting off two seperate sets of custody battles. She defended me on both despite all the wild accusations i had to deal with from the other side. She got me join...t custody in just under 90 days from filing. The second time i was awarded full custody. She was responsive to all my questions and comments throughout. My daughter turned 10 a few mths ago and i realized i never left a review for the law office that truly saved me. Thank you.
