Terresha Deneen Wile Stevens

I hired Mrs Stevens in June 2013 for a divorce/custody/child support case. It was always difficult to get in touch with her. Her office door was always locked and I never saw staff. She knew I suffered from heart failure and had a disabled son, I confided my fears in divorcing my husband, fears in m...y son losing his dad, and explained I wanted to keep things as stress free as possible. During initial consultation, I felt as though something wasn't right with this office but I needed help with my divorce. I went to court on my own to get a hearing on legal fees due to my situation and was granted no legal fees charged to me. During Mediation, Mrs Stevens had attitude and seemed to be feeling bad for my soon to be ex husband. I always wondered if she was texting my ex during Mediation because she was always on her phone. After mediation, we began having issues with visitation. This Attorney always ignored my calls. When I received my temporary divorce papers, she actually had a different name in the Change Name field, no where close to my name! When I did finally reach her and ask about this, she said "Oh it's ok this is temporary. The divorce decree will have your correct name". But this temporary order with the wrong name was FILED in court! Not long after, Mrs Stevens claimed she no longer handled Family Law and released me as a client. Imagine my surprise when a few days later I looked up family law attorneys and found her again, still practicing Family Law. This caused extreme stress. I felt as though I wasn't taken seriously, and it caused severe depression. Frantically searching for a Divorce Attorney for a fast approaching court date, I found an amazing law firm. Then I realized, Mrs Stevens didn't take her job seriously and seemed to only want easy cases. I wish I knew back then that I could bring charges against her. I'm glad to see she has been disciplined and I hope the clients she has now don't go through what I went through.

Complete waste of money. I hired her for what I thought was a simple case regarding separation of property/ child support/visitation. Here I am 9 months later paying another lawyer $2500 to do exactly what I hired Ms. Stevens for. On top of that, Ms Stevens showed up late to court.. so we had to fin...d another judge to view my case. Ms Stevens did not do so much as apologize for being late. After the court date I tried contacting Ms Stevens multiple times with questions regarding my case.. she simply told me that she had done what I hired her to do and I could hire her again if necessary.

I hired Terresha Stevens to handle my child custody case. When I first met her for a free consultation, she seemed genuinely concern and wanting to help. After I hired her, it all changed. I had trouble getting in touch with her or her unprofessional staff in regards to updates on my case. I noticed ...she constantly had different staff members. She relocated offices and did not inform me. She missed mediatation dates that she orginally set up with the social worker and didn't even call to notify anyone, causing me, the mediator and the opposing party to wait for nearly TWO hours before her 'secertary' called saying she had a dental emergency! I felt that I was pressured into agreeing with certain issues just to get the case finalized, because Ms. Stevens demenor was hostile towards me. She constantly was on her phone texting during mediatation! I guess you get what you paid for
