she took the money and did nothing

My husband hired Ms. Thompson several years ago to complete a QDRO from his previous marriage. We paid Ms. Thompson $900.00. she never completed any of the paper work. She never returned any phone calls. It has been 7 years and still no QDRO. she ignored all attempts by us to have her return the mone...y saying she did the work, but We have NOTHING. I would go 0 stars but that is not an option

heartbroken

my brother and I went to see Rhonda Thompson for a free consult and at first I thought umm I don't think I like her persona, but after sitting with her for more than 30 minutes I figured I think she is what we need in a Lawyer. Let me tell you we were WRONG!. She advised us on what to do to help my... brother get custody of his son. Basically we have been given the run around and then these last week and a half there has been no response at all, emails have not been replied to and phone calls have not been returned. It has been 2 weeks since we saw my brother's son because the mother came and took the boy and she and the his son have not been seen since, we are heart broken and dying inside hoping he is okay. Find another lawyer to help you!

Unresponsive

I very much regret hiring Ms. Thompson to represent me. During the most stressful time of my life she only added to the grief and frustration. Her staff of one is rude and dismissive. IF the phone is answered you will the get the pat answer of "Rhonda is in court." Phone calls and emails will not be ...returned, appointments will be cancelled with very short notice. The office is tiny and reeks of cigarettes. They have no business calling themselves professionals. Glad this nightmare is over!

Wonderful.. Caring and Concenred

Rhonda handled my husbands child support case today.. She stepped into a difficult situation after our other lawyer did not do his job, with 2 days notice she represented my husband masterfully in court and she delt well with my little freakout! ((sorry again))) I would not go to another lawyer fro...m here on out.. She is absolutely wonderful and I can not say enough good things about her!

Hurt

I'm going through so much with my divorce and hired Rhonda based on a friend's referral. I guess she did well for my friend, but I have had no such luck. I'm trying to find a new attorney. I completely agree with the post about hire at your own risk. It is very difficult to get any kind of respon...se, and there have been times where I have just had a quick question and I need to wait over a week to be able to ask. I can't be okay with that service with the amount of money I'm paying. Even if it was free, I wouldn't want that kind of service. And I definitely agree that the paralegal talks down to people. She has made me feel stupid and like a nuisance. By no means do I call everyday either as the other secretary implied about the person who posted below. I send an email and will wait almost a week and then follow up with a phone call where I am badly spoken to. The only time I was treated with any respect was when I first met them. When Rhonda took my retainer. Since then this entire experience has been awful. These reviews are supposed to be here to help, and I don't understand why people feel the need to try and discredit other reviews. These are peoples opinions on how they were treated. So in defense of anyone in my position, those who post anything positive must be fake reviews. Or they are all women. The experience my friend had with Rhonda was great, but she is a woman. I'm a man, have not at all harassed Rhonda or her secretary - have simply tried to seek help through an extremely difficult time - and I get treated very poorly. Maybe it is possible that Rhonda should be a women's rights lawyers and not retain any male clients. If that's not the case, then it is just extremely hit or miss with her - and all of these reviews are correct. I know my friend raved about her, but my experience has been anything but satisfactory - by no fault of my own. I think it is reasonable to expect an answer within a week. I appreciate that lawyers are busy, but then do not take on a new client if you cannot offer the service that is deserved by each and every client. Someone who thinks people should just be okay with waiting over a week for a response, must not be going through a very difficult time. It should be understandable that for some of us, this is the most difficult thing we have ever gone through and is the most important thing we are currently going through. Therefore, we feel that our experience - our questions and concerns, deserve the respect of a decent reply - even something just acknowledging that they will respond as soon as possible. Very little communication from Rhonda, and very unsavory behavior from her secretary. I hope to be out from this downward spiral soon.
