WARNING!

This is the worst lawyer you could possibly imagine. I used her for my disability case. She was supposed to contact me a week before the hearing. I never heard from her. I called the office and they told me she would contact me Thursday about my case to discuss it. Then on Thursday the office told me... she was busy and would call me next Thursday and my case was on Monday. The office called back and said she won't be able to make the call and to meet her a half hour before the hearing. I had a friend with me that is an RN to give testimony in front of the judge. As for me, I had about 12 concussions and I had some notes with just a few words that were on a couple sticky notes that would mean nothing to anybody else. They had just one or two words to remind me of the different incidents where I got concussions. She got directly in front of me while I was sitting next to my nurse friend, stood above me and demanded twice the 2 sticky notes and told me "you can not go into the hearing with the notes." She didn't know anything about me or my case. We went into the judge's chamber. The judge asked Rachael King, the attorney, questions about me. After about a half I stood up, asked to be excused to use the washroom briefly. I walked out after a minute or two and Racheal told my friend the nurse to tell me that they were done. I didn't have a chance to speak my case to the judge myself. It was suddenly over. I believe this shyster cut me short because she had another client coming in at that time. After hearing this from my nurse friend I was so upset by this I asked the receptionist if I can have a copy of the hearing. I called the law office to complain and was informed she no longer works there. I will be calling the bar association about her and I will try to get her disbarred after they listen to the recording of the hearing. I was easily awarded disability benefits with a fine lawyer at Disparty law firm.
