Posted by Tom | November 09, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Immigration

Awful

This attorney knows how to bleed her clients dry. She is an expert at nothing but rephrasing the same lies over and over again. She gets negative google reviews taken down instantly, so she always looks good. She is definitely an immigration attorney as she bends the rules and behaves like a border h...oper. Lies in court, lies to the judge, accusations everywhere and lies in communications with others. Doesn't even know the facts from her own clients before changing the agreements. Wanna spend triple hire the greasy haired liar.

“Tom” is not a client, though he/she pretends to be for the sole purpose of misleading future clients. I am a relentless advocate for my clients and a tough litigator. It is not uncommon for opposing parties, their friends and family members to be upset when they are questioned in court. Know this, I work hard for my clients in the legal system to protect their rights and shield them bad actors who can be prejudiced, malicious and dishonest.

Denise helped me with property tax refund.

I am so grateful to Denise Penton who helped me with a partial recovery of paid property taxes after I received a denial for property tax relief from the tax commission. Denise reviewed the denial letter and application details and discovered missing funeral expenses, and other medical related expens...es. She helped me with filing a tax appeal, and represented me at the hearing with the Ada county Tax Board of Appeals. Thank you, Denise!! Fantastic.

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.
