Unresponsive lawyer

I had an appointment with her the first part of October and I sent her a check for $800 on October 13 for her to make some changes to my Living Trust and haven't heard anything from her up to this time - no letter, no phone call, nothing. I am going to ask for everything back from her and go to ano...ther lawyer.

Comment from Katherine Ruocco - It is regretful that this client is not satisfied. Client's calls were addressed, and were returned, unlike her comments made in the review. There were several meetings with the client that were not charged for and were provided as a professional courtesy while the client was information gathering. The client after approximately 2 years of free counsel and meetings decided to move forward with engaging our office to draft estate planning documents. The $800 fee was recorded in our accounting system in early November. The drafts were sent to the client under cover letter dated December 4. The client claims to have not received the documents, and once this message was communicated to our office by the client, the documents were promptly resent to her. Our office has been in contact with the client with regard to any edits needed to be made to the documents and the client has stated she will get back to us and has not yet done so. Our office is a bit confused as to the statements made in the review, and hopes that this client decides to tend to any outstanding legal needs, and will continue to offer excellent service at such time that she may contact us.

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.
