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!!!

Unprofessional

Happens that this what she calls herself attorney, dropped my case in the middle of it all. She failed to resolve my divorce, took $3000 from me and was left with no divorce, nor nothing. Worst attorney in Houston should be ashame of herself taking money without solving anything… but she will sweet t...alk in to you to get her business . I should have read her Google reviews before making a decision. I understand now why she has really bad reviews.

RUN RUN RUN (NEVER HIRE HER)

I engaged with her for legal representation and paid the required retainer fee upfront, expecting competent and diligent service. However, my experience has been nothing short of disappointing. Despite assurances of assistance, there has been a complete lack of progress on my case. Communication wit...h her and her office has been virtually nonexistent. Phone calls are ignored, voicemails go unanswered, and attempts to seek updates have been futile. What's particularly frustrating is that I paid a significant retainer fee for representation that has yielded no tangible results. It's disheartening to see my investment go to waste without any meaningful action taken on my behalf. I caution anyone considering her for legal assistance to think twice. Not only has the service been subpar, but the lack of accountability and follow-through is unacceptable.

Very disappointed with her services

I heard this attorney to represent me in a divorce matter pay the $15 retainer and within that time my divorce case was on February 20, 2024 to go to trial and fight for me, regaining my home or having My ex-wife buy me out when a reasonable settlement within 30 minutes. She convinced me to settle ...for a lower mountain with my house is worth. I am still at this day trying to fight to get the money that is awarded to me from my divorce. No support at all. My ex-wife was able to gain the house. The attorney was able to get paid her retainer fee Attorney was able to get paid and this moment May 10, 2024 still trying to get the money rewarded to me. This is not for nobody to use. I read other reviews on here. They give her four stars I disagree because as this moment still struggling trying to gain my portion of the pie with zero support from Attorney or office I tried to call and no response. I text and I get I’ll get back to you if I can.
