Posted by Stephanie | July 10, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

She cost me thousands of dollars by not filing a counter petition

Jessica took my case in March 2016 at $375 an hour. It was very difficult getting her to reply to emails. She at times didn't show up to court and didn't submit my paperwork that I made sure to get her including my parenting class paperwork. Judge questioned why I didn't take it and she then asked me... and I of course told her I took it months ago, passed and sent her the certificate. I never got child support or maintenance. I let her go and hired a new lawyer. The day before the divorce was to be granted, my husband dismissed the divorce, quit his 20 year good paying job and removed our entire marital savings only he had control of. This all happened because Jessica didn't file a counter petition. When I wrote asking why...her reply was I could have filed one myself. I had no idea what a counter petition was and I was paying her to legally protect me with her law degree. Please consider any other law firm other then this one in my opinion. I'm still not divorced. 2 1/2 year divorce with not much to argue about....a retirement account(he removed) and a pension and a 17 year old son who an adult now. Anyone wanting to discuss legal issues with her, please contact me. Tyblossom on aol.
