This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Worst attorney ever

She was eager to take my payment but never returned my phone calls, miss filed paper work and was very unhelpful.

Replied last September 2, 2018

We make every attempt to make things right for our clients, and if we make a mistake, we correct it. So, if you are unhappy, please call the office, and we can discuss adjusting your bill as appropriate. Unfortunately, this anonymous "client" doesn't provide any information for me to determine if it is a real client or the nature of the specific complaint. I return all phone calls in a timely manner, and I can't think of any client we have taken money from without providing service for, in the most efficient and fair manner we can. I suspect it may be the same unhappy opposing party who posted a fake review, in violation of Avvo's terms of service, a few weeks ago. I try to be fair with opposing parties and opposing counsel, but it's my obligation to advocate for my client. Sometimes opposing parties are unhappy when things don't go their way. This appears to be the case here.

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.
