Irina is right about his lack of morals
when my son got murdered in 2004 i was so lds that i wanted only and lds lawyer. he met me in omaha. that was nice. he thought there was a big wrongful death suit. in the end he was not competent to handle the estate and quit leaving me hanging and sending me a bill for $10,000.00...yes, i said...
I dispute each and every allegation in this comment. I was contacted by this lady about a worker's compensation claim, not a wrongful death claim. I told her up front that I do NOT do probate work so I referred her to another lawyer for that. It turned out that the deceased son was a carnival independent contractor and not an employee so workers compensation did not apply. Her son carried no insurance so there was no source to pay a wrongful death claim. This lady was treated with respect and I never charged her any of my time. There was no bill from me for $10,000. I wish we could hold people accountable for posting false and defamatory comments like this one.

Very poor moral character and ethics
Mr Widdison finalized my divorce. He got the job done, but I don't see who would't - it was an easy case. However, the final invoice somehow turned out to be twice as much as initially discussed.

"In response to Irina Vereshchagina's review, there was no problem with our work. She never voiced any concern about our work and in fact was pleased with our work. After we were finished there was $246 dollars still owing on her account. Irina tried to get out of paying this balance by filing a Complaint with the Iowa Board of Professional Responsibility. This Board regulates attorneys licensed to practice in the State of Iowa. After careful review of the Complaint, which we resisted, the Board found no merit to Ms. Vereshchagina's Complaint and dismissed it. A copy of the frivolous Complaint and the Board's dismissal will be provided to anyone who requests it. (712) 202-0073. Harold K. Widdison"
