Posted by anonymous | January 29, 2015 | Child Support

Worst Lawyer Ever!!!

When I interview Vija, She told me what I wanted was possible. She sold me on her. As things got going with court she began speaking a different tune. She repeatedly asked me over and over what I wanted and asking me to email her the list, although since the first time I had met her the list had been... spoken or given to her numerous times. As the going got tough, she appeared to not be up for the battle. She allowed the other counsel to make all the rules. Never once did my myself, friends or family feel like she was doing her job or helping me. After 4 months of asking for child support to get started we still hadn't gotten anywhere with it. The whole process was a joke. It felt like she wanted a cut and dry case. When it proved to be anything other then that she ran the other way.

Avvo Rating

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
