Jamie N. Myers

Ms. Myers was my court appointed attorney. I was falsely accused by CPS and not a minute later I was sitting alone without my children. I was scared, unfamiliar with the system, and I truly thought I would never see my babies again. I couldn't afford to hire a private attorney, and having a court a...ppointed attorney scared me more than going it alone. I never expected the court appointed attorney to work so hard to defend me. You always hear that court appointed attorneys aren’t up to par and don't have a real reason to work hard on the case, this is not how I feel at all about Ms. Myers. It felt like the whole world was against me accept for her. When no one else believed me, Jamie Myers did. She attended all of my court hearings, was very prepared, and got my kids back for me. She was so knowledgeable. My kids are my whole life, without them I didn't feel a sense of belonging in this world. Jamie Myers changed my life and saved my children. Jamie Myers is angel sent from above. I hope everyone can be as lucky as I was and get such a godsend.

During my current case with the department of child protective services this attorney chose to do several things that finally made her withdrawing from my case a blessing. The first and most alarming was the fact that she was absent during my initial dependency hearing then missed my pretrial confe...rence and finally showed up for my mediation hearing and met me for the first time and after having the most non-productive client meeting which didn't last long led me into the mediation with a most reassuring request that I do her a huge favor and "just shut up and allow her to do all the talking" which I did just to have her agree that my legal process be slowed to a halt by the opposition like it was a good thing to do and I almost forgot that she had the gall to tell me that I needed to calm the waters with the agency who removed my child under the most baseless collection of lies that one could imagine. That not being bad enough she then accused me during the process of lying and misrepresenting the facts of my life and circumstances and when furnished with the facts that she was incorrect didn't even have the decency to admit it. Sadly she began hiding completely behind her staff to the point that I was wondering if her assistant would be a better choice to represent me. Then After cps re-scheduled three of our supervised visits in a row due to only one reasonable excuse (death of a loved one) she doesn't file any motion to object to my child being kept from seeing me even though there is a court order in place for that to be happening, she instead informs me that the oppositions attorney was in a fender bender and that she obviously isn't going to argue that the trial which is scheduled in just a matter of days should go on as scheduled and that I need to be more understanding . that would have been fine except that this debacle is already filled with slow-play tactics that anyone can clearly see and hey the fender bender lawyer was back at work doing just fine and yet the court date is now pushed out when trial would have brought him home and jamie myers has finally done the right thing and jumped ship and filed a motion to withdraw. So please consider that this experience could become your own and really think hard if your legal matter matters to you and your loved ones because mine obviously didn't matter to jamie myers
