Ms. Crawford

Ms. Crawford is an amazing attorney. She definitely was a blessing to our family. She explains everything to you so you know exactly what to expect and what you need to do. She will definitely do everything she can to help get your case resolved. She is a very kind and compassionate woman and beautif...ul on the inside and out. The judicial system needs more attorneys like her.

WORST ATTORNEY EVER

WARNING !!!!!!!!!! DO NOT EMPLOY THIS WORTHLESS ATTORNEY!!!! WARNING!!!!!!!! Would not answer her phone! Would not return phone calls! Would not reply to e-mails! Actually talked bad to me about my wife! Had to sit & wait for her to show up in court every time! Once up to 3 hours just to do a reset!... I was in the hospital on my court date, she told me "not to worry about it, she would show up & represent me & just reset the case" THREE WEEKS AFTER I GOT OUT OF THE HOSPITAL-I WAS ARRESTED & JAILED FOR 4 DAYS FOR FAILURE TO APPEAR & FORFEITURE OF BOND! MY BOND DOUBLED!! I FIRED HER & HAD TO PAY ANOTHER ATTORNEY TO HANDLE MY ORIGINAL CASE & GET ME OUT OF THE MESS SHE HAD GOTTEN ME INTO BY NOT SHOWING UP!!!! WORST ATTORNEY EVER!!! DON'T WALK BUT RUN AWAY FROM HER REPRESENTATION!!!!

Do Not Use!

Kept resetting the case, and when tried to do a plea of a misd to just get the process over with, she reset it again. Would not return phone calls, and was left in jail for 6 days because she didn't show up for court. When the judge was giving time served, all she had to do was show up. Her excuse, t...oday is my day off and I gave it to another attorney to attend. This isn't my fault. Very rude and unprofessional.

Not Happy

If she is your court appointed attorney for yourself or family member. Do yourself and get someone reputable. This lady is unprofessional, tardy and not worth wasting your time.
