Amy Lashay Gervich

Highly suggest you avoid this lawyer at all costs. She will charge you thousands of dollars and keep your case going despite what you tell her to do. She spent over 3 years on my case and got me absolutely nothing in the end, specifically she got me exactly what I didn't want. Majority of the time sh...e is unresponsive to emails, she lies to your face then goes behind your back and signs orders you didn't discuss with her or even agree to... she's a fraud and stuck up. I would like to give no stars. Highly disassociated in her ability to assist with my case. Do not hire her.

I hired Amy in August of 2017 for a child support case. I am grateful but feel that her and her staff was very unprofessional especially with communicating with me. I wasn’t told of court date cancellation or if and when the new court date was unless I called. I can count on one hand how many times I... actually talked to Amy personally. I would always have to get information from the paralegal or secretary at that time. The case lasted awhile and during the pause period I was never updated on anything. I deliberately asked on several occasions about my retainer fee and if and when I needed to pay anything more please let me know in a timely manner. I was assured that I would be told which was very untrue. My case finally was over early this year of 2019 and once the case was over and I got my finally paper work, there was a bill telling me to pay the remainder. I was very upset because no one ever told me any charges that had accumulated. I was given the paper work in the mail and emailed never by communication. That is so wrong and truly unprofessional on all levels. Now I have incurred interest on the payment that was never discussed and attitude with a new secretary because I would not pay the bill in full. I will never use her service again. Amy and her team need to work on communication that is a big key when working with others.

Amy was either incompetent or a fraud. First, I wouldn’t hear from her for months (unless she wanted more money). Second, she spent absolutely zero time learning my case. It’s not a good thing when your lawyer knows nothing about you after a year of meetings. Several times Amy would not even file the... necessary paperwork with the court resulting in a few postponements. My divorce took more than 2 years to finalize because of her gross negligence and incompetence while costing me over $6,000 in attorney fees.

My divorce started out peaceful enough and then took a turn for the worse. Amy was honest, kept me informed of the legal options, and of resources to keep my children stable during such a difficult transition. She helped me realize solutions where I could see none. I felt prepared to face the facts a...s things progressed through the courts. My life and the lives of my children are now in a better place due to the great counsel received.
