Warning!!!

Amy handled my bankruptcy. At first she was very good. But then everything started slipping and taking forever. It took way longer then it should have to file. She informed me she had a crappy assistant that let everything fall through the cracks. She stated she replaced her office help. A year lat...er I used her for my divorce case. What a mistake this was. It took way way way to long for her to file my case. The judge would request certain things and she wouldn't contact me or inform me of any of this. I started calling the courts myself. She would not answer texts, phone calls, or emails. My case was 10 days from being dismissed. I stopped by her office and it was completely cleaned out. One of the neighboring businesses stated she's been out of there for months. It took me finding her on facebook and calling her out in front of her friends for her to contact me. It was a waste of time, money, and emotion. Once she had my $ everything changed and she just vanished. DO NOT Hire her.

Don't waste your time or money....

We had two active cases with her for over a year, and now had to rehire new lawyers and redo everything she was suppose to do. One of our cases was a divorce case. It got dismissed in Aug. because she her office failed to file paper work, yet she did not tell us and let us go to the parenting classes... we were told we needed to attend. It was not until the first part of next year, when we called the court on our own, that we found out the case had been dismissed 6 months prior. When confronted about this, she acted surprised, as if she didn't know. She informed me that she would refund my filing fee because of her error, and that a check would be issued in "10 business days". I never saw the check, and she would never return my email. We filed several bankruptcies thru her office, each one of them getting dismissed because her office would not file paper work or comply with the Trustees requests. She if famous for never returning emails and has zero sense or urgency. We wasted a year of our life's with her office because we are now having to redo every legal action, and pay for it again, out of our own pocket due to, in my opinion, her gross negligence. When asked if she would compensate us for everything, she claimed that everything she did was "billable hours". The State Bar has been informed of her "billable hours" conduct and the United States Bankruptcy Trustee Office will be notified as well. along with News and media outlets and several other outlets. In my opinion, you should not waste your time or your money in dealing with this office.
