Beware of hiring Maudia Norman Washington

I hired Maudia Washington to represent me in a security deposit dispute. I wish I had read Shana’s review on AVVO. It would have saved me a ton of time and money. Maudia Washington aka Maudia Norman Washington represented me for less than 6 months and I paid her over $7k. I fired her because she l...ied when sent me an email attaching an unsigned order by the judge. The bill which started at $257.50 and revised to $370 then to $677 was finally revised to $1264.35, all dated 29 February. Washington then sued me for $1264.35 in a complaint that she got my name wrong as the defendant, and gave the reason that she was hired to represent me as a defendant “in an eviction action”. She didn’t even know why I had hired her, after paying her over $7K! I owned the house and certainly wasn’t evicted. We went to arbitration and she lost. She then filed an appeal and lost again in 2025. To add insult to injury, she turned over her bill of $1264.35 inflated to almost $3k to a collection agency. Don’t just take my word about Maudia Washington’s representation, check out the sanctions in Kane County, IL. Beware of hiring Maudia Washington, aka Maudia Norman Washington. In my opinion she doesn’t even deserve my 1 star.

Great help and insight

Ms. Washington was a delight to deal with, and I have nothing but good things to say about her. From our initial encounter, it was clear that she was committed to my case. She listened intently to my worries, answered right away, and kept me updated at every stage. I am thankful and comforted by her ...knowledge.

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.
