Sharon Leigh Merrick

I had my first consultation over the phone which lasted about 3mins or less(something I like because I like things done as quickly as possible). Adela followed up with me and gave me all the information I needed at all times. I barely had to do anything in the process of this divorce, Adela was on to...p of everything and Sharon was there at the hearing. That again....lasted about 5mins. I really cant complain about anything here. thank you all for all the help. it was a pleasurable experience for me.

Sharon sounded so helpful at first like she was really going to help me. She told me to stop gathering discovery documents, never requested discovery from the other party, allowed me to miss the discovery response deadline, forwarded one of my emails to her onto the other party's attorney, failed to ...actually give the other party my complete discovery responses and only sent them the objections I prepared myself. After I fired her, I requested a final billing statement at least 12 times and did not receive one until my new attorney requested it. Here I am, two years later, still not divorced and find out that she failed to give me 2 of the 4 total discovery requests served on me. I attempted to file a complaint with the bar, but I will have to reopen it at this point now that I have more information.

Consultation visit was professional and informative. Hired Sharon and told them to proceed with divorce filing and serving of my husband. Specific dates were discussed. No paperwork was ever filed and papers were not served, learned this through my husbands attorney. Contacted the office and did not ...get a response for 5 days. Was then told that the employee that e-filed the paperwork had been out sick resulting in my divorce not being filed with the county. This info was never communicated with me. Fired this attorney immediately. Wasted my time in getting the divorce process going.

Only my second visit to her office to discuss my divorce we got into an argument. She was definitely not listening to what I wanted the outcome to be in my divorce case. She kept telling me that I would be paying child support no matter what. Even though I'm looking at getting shared custody of my... kids which mean 50% of the time. I felt like she working for me soon the be exwife and not me. The end result I fired her and now searching for a more aggressive attorney that will fight for me. Stay away from this attorney!!!!!!! Such a frustrating experience
