Does Not Care About Your Case, Will Not Return Your Calls! DO NOT HIRE!!

I attempted to retain Ms. Levine's services to handle a simple request (change of venue for a child support case) Not once did Ms. Levine express that she had no interest in helping me or that she couldn't help me; she requested I send supporting information and a synopsis of my request to her ema...il so that she could look at the information and consider my situation. I complied with this; it took about 45 minutes or so to write a very detailed email and review/attach appropriate paperwork. I had expected to hear back from Ms. Levine the following day or so regarding my case and what could/couldn't be done to resolve my situation. Keep in mind, this was working on a compressed timeline of just under 2 weeks; circumstances had arisen that left me with the need for a lawyer where I had previously not needed one. That initial phone call was the last I heard from Ms. Levin via phone, email, or otherwise. She continued to ignore me and my attempts to contact her for days. To this day, one day before my scheduled court hearing, I have not heard back from Ms. Levine, but have sent her several emails as well as phone messages with her secretary. Debra Levine doesn't care about your problems, and she doesn't have the fortitude to tell you she doesn't want to help you with your case....apparently, she would rather just ignore you until it's too late for you to find representation elsewhere. I am now completely at a loss and vulnerable because I attempted to put my trust into Ms. Levine and her services. If she can't even tell someone if she will/will not work on their case, how can you trust her to represent you? DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL PERSON.
