Judith A. Hearn

I approached Judith Hearn for help with a legal issue. As she was convincing me to retain her, she was very adamant about helping me and made several promises of what she could/would do for me. Once I had retained her, however, it was a completely different story. She made me feel like my case w...asn’t worth her time. She would never return my calls. If I had a question, the only way to get it answered was to go to her office so she had to talk to me. She didn’t even bother to come to my arraignment. It seems that at soon as Hearn had my money, she just wanted to shuffle me through the process and get rid of me as quickly as possible, with as little work as possible. As to the dispensation of my case, she was no help at all. The instant she faced any resistance from the prosecutor, she immediately rolled-over and any and all promises she made me were out the door. At the sentencing, she didn’t say a word; not chiming in even once to say anything to my benefit. I’m sorry to say it, but I honestly felt cheated by this woman. Looking at it objectively, having Hearn as an attorney was essentially the same as having no attorney and pleading guilty; since the end result would have been the same either way. All in all, Judith Hearn is a very poor lawyer. If you all need is a lawyer to be “there” standing next to you as the judge reads your sentence, Hearn is for you. If you actually want real help with your legal issues from someone who may care even just a little, I suggest you steer clear.
