Shameful

Was referred to her for being aggressive and quick in the court room by another attorney who had nothing but good things to say. Met her for consult. Provided her with all the confidential information pertaining to the case so that she would not have to do anything but get us in front of the judge si...nce time is very important in this case. I was charged and paid an exaggerated "investigation" fee. I called, left messages, and sent text messages only to inquire about the status and she ignored me. That's when i asked the referring attorney to reach out. They did and guess what? They got a response with no problem. That's when she finally called me. Told me she couldn't help. I asked about the retainer agreement that she coincidentally forgot to have me sign and the refund of all or at least half the money back. She got upset, said no and although i'm who she consulted with and also who paid her, she didn't have to talk to me because i'm not her client. Now i have to work on getting my money back. I paid her to look into a case and all she did was take my money. Don't get your money took.

Dear Anonymous, My office strives for the utmost client satisfaction in every case. As I explained to you previously, you are not my client. Therefore, because you are not my client, I have the duty to protect the attorney/client privilege with the person that is my client. Further, all legal services were provided for your friend. If you would like to find out detailed information regarding this matter, you may contact your friend and ask him because only he has the right to break the privilege. If your friend is unhappy with my services, I would be more than happy to discuss this matter off line with him.

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.
