Not Recommended

I have met Caroline Smith personally and she is extremely rude to me. Although she may follow through with the case she is very unprofessional and unpersonable. I suggest that if you are considering her, my opinion would be to go with another company who treat their clients better. She referred to me... as "poor people" and extremely, extremely rude. Her office called me the day before court and told me that I was responsible for the lawyers fee because they could not get the realty company to pay it. I did not have the money last minute, but came prepared with a payment date and she treated me as though I was trying to stiff her out of a payment. My recommendation is to go with another lawyer firm that would appreciate the business of the client. I will pray for her and her abrasive, aggressive personality with her clients. I feel sorry for her.
