Sleaze is being nice

I came to her in a bad situation, paid her a retainer and was told she’d email me a contract to sign that afternoon (she never did). She told me she contacted opposing counsel with a response, that was a lie. I have emails directly from the other attorney stating they never heard anything from her. W...hen I confirmed her with the emails and asked what was going on she claimed he wouldn’t respond to her and she’s call me in a couple days to come back in. Then she disappeared. Beyond disgusted with her lack of ethics. I’m not sure how she’s still licensed. I used a credit card for half of the retainer and was able to dispute the charge with the proof I sent them.

Strong, knowledgeable....a winner!

Marlene is a tough, knowledgeable attorney, that understands what has to be to done to win. Shes detail oriented and very smart, and a formidable adversary in a court room. I would highly recommend Ms. Adams.
