Karen L. Delveaux

I had an awful experience with Karen. She seemed nice, experienced and what I thought was a tough attorney when I met her during the initial consultation. After 4 mos. into the divorce, I let her go. This was after I learned from another attorney that she should be filing a petition for maintenanc...e after my husband stopped paying for a number of items such as groceries, vet bills, gas, etc. I had to go back and inform her and she insisted she never knew, yet I told her up front he wasn't paying for these. She didn't appear in court on the day she was supposed to and gave me some flimsy excuse that she was trying to save me money. Then she charged me an hours time to research victims assistance information, of which she never provided to me and I never requested her to research it. I compared invoices with my husbands and every phone call between his attorney and mine she charged me more time for, yet it was the same phone call. I lost faith and was hesitant to hire another female attorney. Do your homework on attorneys before and research feedback from other clients. I got her name from a coworker, yet found very little on client feedback and testimonials other than one listed on this website. There are good attorneys out there that truly advocate for their clients and the law, I don't believe Karen is one of them. Karen wasted a great deal of my money.
