Stacy Lynne Ortega

Came to our sessions unprepared. Unfair billing, paid for witnesses to be called that weren't. Biased on name knowing within the court.< Wanted to give my ex a 50/50 parenting plan when he worked 2nd shift and lived 45 min away. Took to long to come back with a recommendation, over 30 days and had... to be prompted by my lawyer.

Stacy Ortega was the worst lawyer to hire for our child support/time adjustment case. To begin, her case load is immensely more than she can handle. We had a terrible time getting a hold of her or responses to our questions. At one point our LCM had asked us to gather character witnesses and we had t...o tell her we couldn't ever get ahold of Stacy on exactly who we were supposed to recruit. She eventually got back to everyone asking for a personal extension because her work load was overwhelming. She was dealing with our personal lives in the greatest aspect and couldn't give us the time of day. When everything was settled it took her no time to ask for payment. In fact, we talked to her 10x more when she was looking for compensation than when we actually needed her help. My advice to anyone considering hiring Stacy is to not. She might be a good lawyer, but we'd never know because she was never fully involved or on the same page as everyone else in the case. We will never work with Mrs. Ortega again.

I hired Stacy and spent thousands for her to be rude, insulting, dismissive and she charged me for doing things that were not required of her such as emailing my exes lawyer non-stop and charging me for it. I needed help enforcing a temporary child support and alimony order and KPS told me that they ...didn't have what they needed from her. She did not comply and I feel she purposefully dragged it out knowing there were easier alternatives for a single mother like myself. I ended up firing her and won my divorce case myself. That should tell you something.

Stacy always kept the best interest of the child as her first priority. After being referred to her for Case Management, I wished I had retained her as my primary attorney. I was always kept informed every step of the process and I always felt that my case was a high priority for her and I was never ...pushed to the side. Her staff has always been extremely helpful and would help with questions as best they legally could and always in a very timely fashion. I would recommend Stacy to anyone who is looking for a very high quality attorney.

I have been with Stacy since 2006. She is an awesome person and an even better lawyer. She has worked with me in many different ways that other lawyers wouldn't have put up with on there best day. She is compassionate, professional,and prompt with whatever questions or concerns that I have or may com...e up with. I really feel like she cares! She is not in it for the monetary paycheck, she is in it for the well being of honest, truthful, hard working people. She will always have my business for as long as she wants to put up with me.I will continue to send her business. She has always charged me the same rate (200.00) from the day I hired her, it has never changed.
