Georgia was hired to prepare a very straight forward and simple QDRO. Just as others have mentioned here, it took Georgia months to get the document done and I finally had to start checking in every week or two (probably still would not be done if I had not inquired regularily). After reviewing the... document, I found it had errors in it. So add another month to the process as the corrections were ignored for weeks. Georgia's attitude became hostile once I began to do regular follow-ups and once I pointed out the mistakes. Geez Georgia...did you just expect me to wait forever?

Handled QDRO for me. Paid in late November 2017 for service. I continued to call monthly to check on status. I was told it could take up to six months to process by her assistant, but to keep checking back monthly. Last week in March 2018 I wrote on email expressing my concerns to Georgia. ... wrote back with an apology for the "delay" and that she didn't know what happened, but it "kinda got lost in the paperwork on her " but that a DRAFT would be sent to me shortly for review! Four boilerplate pages (at $300.00 per page mind you....) came to my email promptly. She was humble when I called and insisted I speak with her personally and said she "didn't know what happened and she was sorry." I relayed directly to her that she needs to be spot on from this point forward (I drove directly to get office to sign as did my ex ..... Very stressful situation to say the least especially when money is involved and I'm the recipient of same). She was nonchalant, but her administrative assistant rose up and offered to take the charge. One week to the day we had the judge signed QDRO and the process was underway with the Plan Administrator. I would NOT recommend this lawyer to anyone. She was recommended to me from my Divorce Law Firm (Dickinson Wright) who were excellent. I notified my DLF of this situation for their future reference.

If there was an option for completely incompetent, thieving, and scumbag, I would have opted for that. After paying this law firm $2,400.00 to prepare two QDROs back in November of 2015, I have yet to receive both of them. The one QDRO Georgia did in fact produce, she could not and completely ref...used to verify or validate her figures. After numerous requests for the documentation supporting her figures, I received a copy of some chicken scratch on a piece of yellow pad paper claiming those were the figures. When I compared her figures against the documents provided in the divorce papers, it was clear that she had calculated certain earning quarters multiple times and omitted others. When I confronted Georgia about this, her attitude became more than abrasive and stated she did not do anything incorrectly. As far as the second QDRO, after 15 months it has still not been completed. I am writing this review on the eve that I finally found out why. Not only does this law firm not care to address incorrect calculations but they are so incompetent, or vindictive, that they have been sending my mail to the wrong address. Not because I moved or provided them with the wrong address, because I had received mail from them prior to me confronting them , but I believe it is out of sheer nastiness. The post office managed to reroute a letter to me with the wrong address clearly printed on the front. Conveniently, Georgia had decided to close my file without ever completing the QDRO she was hired to produce and keep the money paid to her. She used the excuse that I refused to respond to her previous notifications, however none were ever received. Georgia has my personal phone number, my work phone number, and my email address yet there were absolutely zero attempts to contact me about this supposed completed document. Do yourself a favor, do not hire this law firm for any reason what so ever!

I am so surprised by the other two reviews that I can only conclude that it is somewhat a matter of people who didn’t get what they wanted, a frequent occurrence in divorce cases, brought about by ignorance of what the law actually is (listening to friends instead?) and unrealistic expectations. ...Georgia Wilder represented me in my divorce proceedings and in the QDRO preparations, and I think she did an outstanding job. There were four QDROs and she handled each one professionally and as expeditiously as possible. She is very knowledgeable and experienced in this very complex area of the law. It can be extremely time-consuming and costly, and, if the plans are government plans as mine were, frustrating and stressful. But divorce can be all of those things, and that’s even if the result is favorable. I have known Ms. Wilder for approximately 40 years and she is one of the most ethical, trustworthy, and conscientious people I know. I have no hesitation at all in recommending her.
