Best Family law attorney ever

Best attorney there is. She knows the law and will fight until the end for her clients. Always kept me up to date on my case. Even if something I did not want to hear. Honest to a fault. I would never choose anyone else to be on my side. Those who speak negatively did not follow her advise. I would n...ever want anyone else as my advocate. When she realized i could not pay she completed it on principle. Hands down Mrs. Weatherspoon is the cream of the crop. She made me feel like I was her only case and fought for me until the end. All those saying something negative did not follow her advise. I would recommend her to anyone . You are lucky if she takes your case and fortunate to have her as your advocate. She truly is one of a kind.

Awesome and Compassionate

Needing an attorney to help you with family differences is never a fun thing but I can honestly say that Ginger has been very supportive and willing and able to answer all legal questions that arise with our case. She has taken time to explain difficult material and if you ask her a question and she ...dosent know the answer off the top of her head she researches the information and gets back to you with an answer to your question. She has taken time out during our legal journey just to check on us even when we are not in court she is very compassionate to the sensitivity of our case. She never builds up false hope she always gives you straight forward information in a professional manner. Ginger has never made us feel like just another client but rather as friends. Ginger is top rate in our book if you need a friendly and compassionate attorney who is dedicated then give her a call she is truly amazing, She has renewed our faith in law it is wonderful to know that people who care about people still exsist. Thanks Ginger

I Like Ginger

Ginger is different. She isn't your cookie cutter attorney. She is experienced and thinks outside the box. She is also a problem solver. I have consulted with many lawyers and no one was as assertive and strong as Ginger (without lacking compassion). Most lawyers are cold and business-oriented. ... Ginger isn't business oriented - she's different. I'd rather have a friend on my side than a CEO... I'm surprised with the negative reviews.. she may not be punctual but neither is the judge. She may be hard to reach, but all lawyers operating solo will be out of pocket often for court hearings. She responds on time, but not at the exact time that I'm trying to reach her. I'd rather hire a private office than a larger network of lawyers.

Had some moments of greatness, but in the end she was a no show

I worked with Ginger on my case and it was going well and I thought she really cared about my children and my case, however at some point something changed and she stopped returning calls and the final straw was when she failed to show up for trial and when I called her office to inquire where she wa...s her assistant that she was in court, and I explained that the judge was waiting on her as were the other parties i was told that she would call me back. That never happened and she never apologized or even explained why she failed to appear for my TRIAL. I had to scramble to get another attorney and ended up losing sole custody of my kids because of her.

REVIEW

Took my money. Never kept me informed as she said she would. I was never present in any proceeding she handled as a result of no communication. Her assistant is completely incompetent and her relationship with judicial staff is highly questionable.
