Verbally abusive

This is not a trial lawyer. She will make you feel defeated about your case and is incredibly verbally abusive. I wish I would’ve recorded some of the things she said to me while she was my public defender. She offers no solutions and suggestions. She will laugh at you and treat you like you aren’t a... person. She gets defensive when you ask questions and speaks on your case definitely as if she is the judge and has the final call. Do not by any means accept this “lawyer” as your public defender.

Horrible Lawyer

Riddihi Desai is a terrible public defender with a black heart. She’s been on my Son case for months & all she do is complain like she’s the client. Nasty responses,she’s uncooperative,rude & very discouraging. She’s like a murderer in the spirit out to kill the faith of inmates hope. Every time she... speak to my Son she’s negative & won’t provide complete answers to questions. Fight against him instead of for him & put together no strategy to win yet aim to destroy his freedom. It’s wrong & must stop if I got to report her publicly on the news to warn others. Inmates are still human beings & it’s not her place to treat them like dogs,especially getting paid from the State. I tried speaking with her due to him being a young adult in hopes we could communicate on a different level. She’s hung up in my face 2-3 times when I’ve told her how wrong this is. She makes no adjustments to change nor balance for the sake of Peace & the best interest of the client. I heard clients tell The Judge she’s not right & he made excuses for her unrighteous behavior. Out of order to sit on a bench & defend what they wouldn’t if it was their kids. Bottom line is shes a bitter hateful lawyer.

Unorganized and nearly unreachable

Ms. Desai is nearly impossible to get in touch with and did not return ANY calls for 6 months (August-February) until the day I threatened to contact someone about the non contact. The lawyer is not receptive to client input and frequently looks disheveled with torn clothing and unorganized files. Sh...e kept files related to my case for months until I threatened to report her. Her charges to the state/county for time spent working on my case seemed made up because she was not reachable and didnt review details because she seemed too overburdened to mount effective defense. She was a court appointed lawyer (in my opinion acted/functioned like an agent of the state) but I don't suggest hiring her for ANY case.

Don’t hire this lady

Worst attorney I have ever dealt with don’t waste your time or money on this worthless lawyer. Refused to show me evidence against me, got upset when I tried contacting her about my case. Never returned any emails or calls. Left me in the hall waiting to be called then left and told the court she cou...ldn’t find me. Absolutely unprofessional and disgusting behavior when you have someone else’s livelihood in your hands. She absolutely has no business in this practice.

Kirkland

Please don’t waste your time and hard earned money with this attorney. She would not even respond to my emails until she collected her consult fee check. Proves that she is not in the game for the client only for the money. Didn’t do anything for my immigration issues. I had a friend recommended he...r and she did another friend of his the same way.
