Most unprofessional Professional.

At first Ms. Powell seemed competent to represent me, but I found out a short time later that she would fail to provide very key services that she agreed to provide. She took a $1000.00 deposit from a relative and said that the rest would be taken later. She never charged the card for the additional ...funds for the deposit. I was lied to several times. Even though I asked for a sit down meeting, she only met with me one time on a sidewalk because she was in a hurry. Her lack of communication hindered my case. She seldom answers the phone or returns phone calls. Emails goes for days without a response and she often would just ignore questions that I asked of her. I personally delivered my discovery documents to her, but when I asked for them to be returned or a time and date for me to retrieve them, she stalled for 6 weeks before she put them in the mail. (Which I still have not received) Even though she stated that she was one of my two attorneys, she never filed that with the court. The last time she said that she would arrange for me to retrieve my property, I heard nothing from her on that Friday, all day Saturday and finally on Sunday afternoon, she emailed me that she quit due to lack of communication. This was less than 72 hours prior to court. She says that I still owe her for the additional $1000.
