Horrific Experience

My first meeting with Lynda Burke-Bentley was exactly what I wanted in an attorney. That is why I hired her to be my divorce attorney. That's where it all ended. After giving my retainer, I never spoke with her on the phone but was charged her rate to speak to her assistant, Tenley Robinson. Lynda di...d exactly what she wanted to do and not what was in the best interest of me, her client. Even when I begged and pleaded with Lynda to settle, she refused. This ultimately cost me approximately $70,000 for her services for my divorce. I never met with her before either of my mediations. I felt very unprepared going into mediation and my divorce was a very contentious divorce that she made even worse. In the end, I got less in the settlement than what my ex had offered me to begin with. I would NEVER recommend Lynda Burke-Bentley to anyone going through a divorce. She was recommended to me because she is known as a "bulldog". I just didn't know she would turn that bulldog mentality on me, her client.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
