This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Incompetent

This lawyer has no clue what’s she doing. She can’t remember anything you’ve told her. She seems very confused and incompetent. She’s actually showing signs of Alzheimer’s.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Incompetent

She has no clue what she’s doing, she always said that she was too busy to work on my case and she lied to the opposing attorney, sabotaging my case. She didn’t know how to handle a court review or even what it is and she charged me for her phone call, to ask another attorney how to do her job. She r...efused to provide legal advice and then charged me anyway. She spent 10 minutes on the phone with me, complaining about how she was too busy to work on my case and then charged me for that call. I had to hire a different attorney , the day before court because she refused to even advise me as how to prepare for court or what documents to bring. I wasn’t going to say anything, but I would feel terrible if she did this to another person and I just remained silent and don’t warn anyone. She nearly destroyed my case and kept almost all of my retainer fee. When I switched to another attorney, she called me and harassed me about it on the phone and then charged me for that phone call, unbelievable!

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.
