Linda Needham Risinger

Linda Risinger is a lawyer in the Collin County, Texas area. She will tell you exactly what you want to hear and keep the case running. I have had Linda for many years. For a final hearing on a my family case, Linda shows up and starts arguing points that were not supposed to argued until a later ...date. It was also an enforcement hearing for my ex wife (who did not show up) and Linda failed to prepare or argue that case. Linda told me 'Give me 30 (or 45) days and this thing will be wrapped up.' Linda told me this in November 2014. Linda does not return phone calls or respond appropriately to me. Linda and her office staff a plagued by constant technical issues (i.e. phone does not work, network down, file not found, et al.). I realize that my case is not very interesting or important in the grand-scheme of things, but this simple case of adjusting my child support payments has cost me over $28,000 in lawyer fees and my wife gets to destroy my relationship with my children with no consequence. Save yourself some heartache and do not hire Linda Risinger.

I hired Linda to handle my divorce and custody battle. She promised results as all attorneys do but got zero results. She was disorganized, appeared to have more cases than she could manage, a revolving door of support staff, and always had excuses for not being responsive or buttoned up. She talk...ed a good game at the beginning but in the end could not deliver progress or provide good legal strategy on how to navigate a heated legal battle. She did not perform well in front of the judge. She is not as expensive as some other attorneys, but if you want to save some money and NOT get your interests represented or defended as they should then maybe she is right for you. I say beware. She is not a strong attorney. How she can be in business for this long is a mystery.

My spouse and I were trying couples counseling, so here we were trying to work on things and she was continually adding fuel to the fire with her comments and suggestions. She is terrible at returning phone calls and keeping you informed, but it was like once she thought we might not need her servic...es, she then instigated issues. Just terrible!! This was not just our life she was adding fuel to, this was our children's as well!! Very unprofessional in my opinion. My spouses attorney was all for us working things out and rather encouraging for the benefit of our children.

Linda Risinger is the worst human being ever! she totally lost my case and admitted it,she took me amex for 18k .totally mis represented me ,took advantage of my disability.i don't know why she is alout to practice by the state bar of tx. no matter how many times i complained didn't matter.i lost m...y family ,home and hard worked money.stay away from her she will destroy you and your family.
