Posted by anonymous | May 07, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Had to select one star, but she’s not even a one star

She seems to be working for the other side and collecting the money from me for doing nothing for me, but for my ex. Communication is terrible....she has difficulty keeping dates & times strait....with no respect for my work schedule....shows up late to hearings and seems confused/lost on what to do... in court. Documentation that would have supported me in court was ignored by her. So, if your ok with your divorce dragging on for years at her expensive rate~hire her! It was more stressful having her as my attorney and keeping up with her demands with no results!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Attorney Harrell and I both practice family law. I have gotten to know Attorney Harrell's work throughout the years as an opposing counsel and colleague. I often tell my clients that we want the other spouse to have a good attorney because it provides assurance that the case will go more smoothly if both attorneys are competent family law attorneys who know the law, can best advise their clients, and reach a fair resolution without a lengthy, destructive and expensive court trial. I am always pleased to learn when Attorney Harrell is involved in a case either as opposing counsel or guardian ad litem. She is intelligent, responsive, reasonable, respected, and not apprehensive to advocate zealously for her clients."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
