Melinda Lyn Gorman

If $5,000 can’t knock a 1st degree, Class B Felony Burglary - Home Invasion down to what it should have been, nothing more than petty larceny and trespassing, then I would hate to see what she charges to actually do something/anything. My 19 yr old kid walked into an open garage to grab beer that he ...could see from the street, that’s it. He didn’t break a lock/door or force entry, he didn’t have a weapon, he didn’t come into contact with the homeowners ever, he didn’t have intent to commit a felony. She didn’t do a gd thing. She was HOURS late to literally every single court date. After she told us that the courts were now doing multiple SIS’s, she didn’t even get him that! She told him after it was all said & done that he could request to have it expunged after 3 years. Smh. He would have done better representing himself. Oh & the fact that she is sleeping with one of her clients, a multiple felon convict, which would be a conflict of interest, she should find a different career path. Like maybe a horticulturist for indoor plants.

Melinda was hired with what was later understood to be an inflated rate for a routine legal issue. After meeting with Melinda and then providing payment in full, she promised updates via email two times before no longer responding to emails or phone calls. Payment was made in full but Melinda has n...o longer responded to requests. Another attorney was contacted and helped to resolve the initial issue rather quickly. Months after payment was provided no response or conclusion has ever been communicated from Melinda. The experience with this attorney has been unprofessional and completely unsatisfactory.
