Catherine Jean Markey

Had a consultation to discuss a potential case. I'm an agreeble person by nature, but this woman was incredibly apathetic, abrupt, rude, and brusque. There is no room for empathy, nuance, or even contexualizing circumstances- the interpersonal skills are not there. The case consulted for will be dism...issed definitively, but regardless, the consult left a poor impression of working with someone with basic humanity. If you are seeking a letter of the law lawyer who fails to contexualize & understand the vagaries of human nature with nuance, she's probably a good fit for you. If you are looking for someone with basic decency, compassion, & critical thinking enough to understand complex situations without perceiving their worldview as the holy grail- please seek elsewhere. It's incredible how rude she was just from a consultation alone; honestly, very sad. Please do better Catherine, you are working with a pool of people disadvantaged & there is a moral responsibility inherent to that- empathy would be an asset for you if you cared enough.
