This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

She’s a SCAM lawyer!

I am so happy this lawyer is disbarred! I hired her back in 2021 and she kept my money and never answered my calls or emails. She never even filed my case and it was never in the system! I asked for a refund so I can go to another lawyer and she refused. I put a bad review on her warning other people... to not use her and she threatened to use me. I got scared and took it down because it was not worth me fighting with a lawyer. Now I found out she has been scamming people’s hard earned money and more than a handful of people filed a grievance against her and she is found guilty and disbarred! Karma came around thankfully!!!

Lier and thief

I'm glad she was disbarred, told me she would have my custody case settled by the end of the year which was 2020 when I initially hired her. After payment I was ignored, my case was dismissed after she abandoned my case, her words were"at this point I can't help you" after I got upset because I had n...ot heard from her in almost a month and i said what point you haven'tdone anything!! Refused to return my money. She did no work, the one thing she did draft looked like she just copied a template, and even spelled my name and my sons name wrong and other things that i could tell this is just a template and she or her team just put my info in. I filed a Grievance with the texas state bar and they told me she has been disbarred for doing this to many many clients. Someone said they don't know why the negative reviews...just because it didn't happen to you does not mean it's not true. She picked and choose who she wanted to help but still take thier money!! God don't like ugly!!

Run far away

I hired this lawyer to help with custody but the only she ever did was show up to court very late mind u it was done by the time she showed up because i was getting an enforcement from adivce i took from her than turned around and said to my face never do that again. I gave her 2k as a down payment t...han paid off 6k. Idk what work she ever did or anything she never answered the only time she ever answered is when i got off late called cuz i found out some info didnt expect her tl answer she didnt left a message to call me tomorrow only for her to call me right back. She will take ur money and run

This Lawyer threaten me to put a lean on my house

It was one of the worst experiences I’ve had. I hired her as a Lawyer and she never ever did anything on my divorce case she even threatened my husband and I to put a lean on our house if we didn’t take down a google review I have all the documents to prove it. As far as we know she is disbarred and ...not allowed to practice law in Texas. She scammed a bunch of people she should be in jail.
