Posted by anonymous | November 02, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Literally the worst divorce lawyer ever.

Brittany was and is to this day the worst mistake I have ever made in my life. It was insane right from the start and looking back I should have known something was wrong. First off she does not have experience in Travis County Family Court and was transplanted from Williamson County where she "says"... she has lots of experience. 1) She failed to explain to me what I was signing and what It meant legally. 2) She failed to gain knowledge or advice from her team who had more experience and what I am left with is a shocking situation that looks like I was taken advantage of, to anyone that looks at my case. 3) She allowed things to happen (maybe unknowingly) that can not be reversed. Trust me, Ignorance has no bliss in this situation. I am still fighting my divorce after 2.5 years and now that I have a "real lawyer", (At a lower cost) I understand what Brittany was lacking the entire time. KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE. Please do yourself and your family a favor and choose another lawyer and FIRM.

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.
