Awful!

This woman will leave you standing in court by to represent yourself, she takes your retainer and you're lucky if she shows up to the next hearing without demanding you pay more money. She never calls her clients back, she does not put in the work you have to do all the research and bring to court fo...r yourself. Please steer clear of this woman she is a scammer you will lose everything in a divorce, custody of your children or maybe end up in jail! She deletes negative reviews on her Facebook ads and other platforms. Please look for a better qualified person so the legal system will take you seriously

ruined my life

I hired this lady in a case where there was zero evidence on me and my life is gone. It took me 4 months just to fix what she screwed up enough just so I could just see my children. Now my children are in a really bad place, not being taken care of and I'm in the fight of my life. As a mother this ...has ruined my life, my family and my ability to even get a job in this state. She showed up late to court, overbilled, and looked like she just woke up every time I saw her. 3,500 is what my life was worth. She never needs to represent another person in any court again

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.

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.
