Great Lawyer, great person

Michelle has been my lawyer now for 2 years with an ongoing family issue and has been fantastic. She is one of the best locally and is honest and fair with her clients. I will use her again, when the time comes. If you need a family lawyer I would highly suggest Michelle. She will tell you straight u...p what is required and what your odds are.

Posted by Quincy Jones | September 17, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Not ethical, lacks integrity and punctuality!

I paid Michelle Roller $1,500 to represent me in a child support case in 2016. She talked really good on how she would represent me but after paying/hiring her she did not make one motion into court nor made any submittal. She wrote/typed up one paper which conflicted with what she and I had initiall...y discussed. So that paper was never returned back to her for processing since it was contrary thus I never got notarized. I told her about the contradiction and she claimed that she would redo it but I end up firing her. Once wks/months kept passing of the time Ms.Roller would say she would have the paper wk ready but no hear from her, I would call to question her lies and how come nothing had been filed/written-typed concerning my defense, she would than say she had been very busy. My case went on for several months with no action by her as my defense attorney so I got fed up of her lies and fired her, requesting for my refund. And I had even went to the bar association with my complaint and even presented to them proof of her lies to try to justify her refusal to refund me. Tape recordings and court documentation(which she didn't have anything on file due to her never doing anything on my case officially) don't lie nevertheless that part of the bar association refused to honor my request since I was bringing a claim against an attorney whom help support the foundation of their platform. WELCOME TO POLITICS!!!!But there is a God in heaven whom will bring judgement on Michelle Roller for her stealing my $1,500 bcse she sure didn't earn it as well as on those at the bar association whom let her get a way with that. I will continue to post the truth of public figures like Michelle Roller whom use their position unjustly while getting wages. The attorney I had hired from other law firm did a wonderful job in representing that same case I had paid Ms. Roller to do.

As Mr. Jones said, he had a child support issue and we discussed different options. There were issues in his divorce decree which had not been resolved. We discussed all of this and Mr. Jones wanted to change the property settlement on a 15 year old divorce. A property settlement cannot be modified by statute. I explained this to Mr. Jones. He would say he understood, but would call me the next day or week and he had reverted back to his previous thinking. I would then explain that I could not change a property settlement 15 years after the case. Mr. Jones would continuously drop into my office or call, running up his bill. I give a 30 minute free consultation, he stayed for well over an hour and a half. I explained this to him, but once again, this was another one of those things where he had a selective memory lapse. I typed the documents as we agreed (as I said I would after I explained the law to him). I thought everyone was fine and that he appeared to understand. But between the time we met and the next time I saw him, he would then go back to his erroneous thinkin). He came to my office and picked up the documents. We discussed them at length. I once again explained the law to him. He then called me and fired me. At this point, because Mr. Jones did not seem to understand what I had explained to him ad nauseum, I was relieved. He demanded his money back. I reminded him that we had a contract where I explained that office visits, phone calls, text messages, etc. were charge for and that he in fact owed me money. He then went to two other law offices and complained about me. I spoke with the other attorneys and explained to them what the issue was. When that proved unfruitful, he filed a bar complaint. Once again that proved unfruitful, because I had earned my fees. I did not steal his money. I earned it. I wish I could explain more than that in this forum, but I believe it infringes upon attorney / client privilege and that to explain myself further would be to violate that. Let me just say that my conscience is clear.
