UNPROFESSIONAL AND RUDE!!!

Mrs. Vera Weisz was representing a friend of mine. In support I accompanied him to the hearing. Upon meeting Mrs. Weisz for the first time outside of the courtroom she immediately commented on my choice of clothing. Her tone of voice was loud and patronizing! I was in shock and in disbelief by her... bad manners. I was wearing a knee length black skirt and a white blouse with a scarf. There was absolutely nothing inappropriate about my attire. I am business woman and a nurse. I know very well what is professional and what is not. Although she was representing my friend it was embarrassing to everyone. She FAILED to take in to account she was wearing an old shaggy sweater and she looked like she just got out of bed. To make matters worse she was 1 hour late. Even the judge inquired as to her whereabouts. I am submitting this merely to help someone else avoid misrepresentation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
