DOES NOT FIGHT YOUR FIGHT

Worst communicator with ZERO EMPATHY COMMUNICATION OR CARE !!!! We felt she was useless everytime she went to court on our behalf there was no fight!!! She allowed the state to do whatever and not once did she dispute anything!!! We requested information about specific charges on the order and we are... yet to get a reply. We had proof of back pay and she did nothing to fight that! In my personal opinion she was COMPLETELY USELESS AND BY THE WAY HAS A HORRIBLE ATTITUDE WHEN YOU QUESTION HER! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME .. SHE MIDUS WELL HAVE REPRESENTED THE OTHER PARTY! HER DEFENSE IS HORRIBLE! NO NEED TO REPLY MA'AM YOUR SERVICES WERE NO LONGER NEEDED WHEN YOU ARE GETTINGPAID FOR NOTHING NOT EVEN VISITATION AFTER OVER A YEAR OF FIGHTING. WHY WORRY ABOUT THE STATES ATTY SCREWING YOU .. WHEN SHE DID IT ALL ON HER OWN..

Hello anonymous former client. I am so sorry you were frustrated with the process. I wish you the very best.

Not aggressive does not communicate

Did not seem optimistic about winning my case. She did not return any of phone calls. The few times I did speak with her, she was speaking in a very condescending tone. I would definitely hire someone else in the future.

I am sorry to hear that you found my tone condescending. Because I do not know who you are or the nature of the "case" you are referring to it is hard to adequately respond to your critique. Litigation can often be a difficult and time consuming endeavor, and, if you are a family law client, it often comes along with a lot of emotion. It is always important to find an attorney you find you can communicate with and someone who addresses your concerns. I try hard to inform my clients as to the statutory guidelines and case law when it comes to family law situations, and I can imagine that such advice may come off as condescending. I would be happy to sit down and discuss any concerns you might have.
