Helen Popich Harris

After previously consulting with this woman before a divorce two years ago, I made an appointment recently with Helen to go over the "non-contested" divorce that my ex-husband convinced me of doing (and I paid for). The appointment was nearly a month in advance JUST to consult with her for an hour a...bout my greedy ex-husband. Today, I called her office on my way to the appointment, then was placed on hold as i was arriving, and after a 5 minute hold, I was told that Helen could not see me because she had became "close" friends with another attorney of whom was part of my ex-husband's family. This was after I spent the entire morning (4 hours) gathering documents, brain-storming for questions to ask, and printing until my printer ran of ink. I was prepared to pay for her outlandish hourly fee. She nor did her receptionist have any consideration to allow me the courtesy of calling and telling me beforehand that she would not consult with me. This, I feel was unfair, unjust, and hopefully, this review will help others see the lack of respect so many lawyers have for the average person of whom apparently feels their time is more valuable. I called back and asked if there was anyone she could recommend, the dimwit of a receptionist said no, then hung up on me, very professional.
