Custody

We tried to end the whole court problem with her but literally my husband never got anything good, he is not a competent lawyer and he is not someone who will give you results. She threw the case and never struggled to get anything good.

Unfortunately, I had to withdraw from your husband's case because he refused to provide the Court with the documentation he was ordered to provide. I can only help so much when the Court's orders are constantly being violated. I did keep him out of jail, despite his continued violations of the Court's orders.

She has done awsome

veroniva helped me get through a difficult case that involved my mental health. She was reassuring and calming through the whole process and has been able to watch a prior case which I wish I had hired her for

Awful communication

So I found this attorney thru unbundled legal services. I met with her one time and she seemed fantasctic! Knowledgeable, caring, the whole nine yards. The thing with unbundled services is I am supposed to be able to hire her for specific services that I pay for (i.e. a 30 min consultation to go over... paperwork and get advice ect. Is $75) or I could pay a retainer ($1500) to hire her. Great fees compared to most attorneys...yet, along with what several other people have said, she is next to impossible to get ahold of! I have spent months calling and leaving messages with the receptionist as well as sent her an email, thinking maybe I said something that caused her to not want to represent me or something....come to find out, she is just flaky like that apparently. Super disappointed because I was really excited after meeting with her as she seems more than competent in her field....also, the unbundled legal services refuses to refer me to another attorney. Don't even bother trying to use her as an attorney unless you want nothing done on your case or no communication.

I apologize that you were not able to get ahold of me. I haven't gotten any messages from a "Kasie" or from someone that I consulted with that I haven't returned.

She is very professional, she follow step by step my case, she cares about my situation and defend me, I got the result that I was expected. Her fees are reasonable and precise. I won't doubt to hire her again.

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.
