She's Simply the Best

I am writing this review because I am actually astonished at how much care and kindness Diana Brazeale put into my case. Her integrity and skill are top-notch, and her character is above reproach. I highly recommend her and shout out to her assistant Ambur who has the patience of Job.

Strong work ethic

I have known Diana Brazeale for over 7 years. I have first hand knowledge of her strong work ethic. She is very knowledgeaable. I would recommend her to any of my clients that need her services.

Chapter 7 client ??

Aug 4th ,2014 Monday Diana Brazeale has been handling a very complicated case for me against a very large bank. She has performed her duties excellent in every way that can be expected . Professional to the very extreme i would expect from someone handling a very complicated and demanding c...ase. Her time and diligence to facts and the ins and out of the banking industries are very time consuming and tedious,she does it with out complaining and makes sure you are notified of everything going on through out the whole procedure. Being her client for a few years i've never heard of any of her clients being shoved aside like this. I do know for a fact she had a problem with a person in her office. That person heard Diana and i talking about her since that person interacted with me in a very unprofessional manner and i reported that to Diana,and she terminated that person. I trust her with everything i've given her and don't have to question how she's handling the case.

Review

We had a very complicated case and Diane handled the details of the case proficiently and is very knowledgeable about bankruptcy law.

VERY POOR - Not professional at all.

I had been able to call and immediately speak to her on two different occasions with no problem. I made an appointment with ease. She is really nice and just seems a little scatter brained at first. After reviewing my case options and being referred to her I decided to give her a chance. The ab...solute moment I paid her a retainer the communication stopped. She was going to email a couple of documents the next day. I received a test email to confirm my email address from her. I never did get another email. I was unable to contact her via email or telephone. I NEVER received a call back after many attempts over the two months. After reviewing case net and discovering she was a NO SHOW for my last court hearing I was desperate for an answer. I showed up unannounced at her office two times. The first time she was not in so I left a message with her legal aid. The second time she was there and was caught off guard. She promptly apologized and said she had been busy and meaning to call. (After I over heard a conversation she had with her helper about avoiding calls with other clients.) I arrived a few days later for the meeting we scheduled and I had to completely repeat myself of the entire case from the first meeting. After two months she had typed up and sent three identical emails to others on my case. This was not at all what was agreed upon when hiring her. Needless to say I promptly ended our agreement.

This reviewer has chosen to comment under the cover of anonymity. While I do not know for sure, I very strongly suspect that this reviewer is a former employee who I fired for bad-mouthing me to a client. I base my conclusion on two factors: 1) this review first appeared the same day I fired the former employee; and 2) the former employee had a propensity to post negative online reviews. I value my clients and I do not treat them the way this reviewer suggests.
