Janet Madison Clemons

When I called for an initial consult, I was assured that she could handle my inquired concerns. When I arrived, she could not answer those concerns, nor give the counsel needed as requested. She deflected with saying I did not tell her about the subject I wanted covered during the consult; but as i...t turns out, she does not know the subject matter at all. It seems that her only concern was to get me in for the initial consult fee of $200.00 which was a waste for getting no counsel at all. Then she offered to fill my paperwork out for $250.00 an hour. I declined because if you lack the knowledge on the subject matter, the paperwork would have been incorrect and faulty. Her concerns were only about money, not good professional work. I felt robbed, and I would not recommend her for anything. She knew she did not have expertise when I called, first, before the initial consultation. She just wanted the $200.00 fee, and knew she would not be providing counsel. She claimed she would have recommended someone else, but never did so. She talked about if she would take the case, there would be a $5,000.00 retainer, and as it is used up by them, I could come in and replenish it. For the simplistic need I had, this was not going to happen. This shows that as a client, your legal needs do not matter to her, neither does getting the information correct, just bring the money. Keep your money, and get a better attorney elsewhere, and I know that is hard to do. Sign my name as D. R.
