Don't Hire

This attorney was the worst we interviewed. She was so disorganized and couldn't even answer basic questions about bail and she seemed lost and was wearing a wrinkled suit that was very dirty.

Don't Hire This Attorney

Had to hire another attorney because she messed up my sons paper work so badly. How did she ever pass the tests to become an attorney?

The Worst

I can't believe she passed the bar. Took my money and lost the case, she cant write or speak.

PLEASE find someone else to represent your loved one!

Ms. Calkins, simply, is a fraud. I cant believe she even passed the bar! The judge had to keep asking her "what?" because she talks like a speech challenged street punk. Shenever returned our calls, didnt visit our son in jail and never bother to even keep him informed on updates on the case. Need...less to say, the complaint is still pending before the State Bar and my son's new lawyer got my son's case dismissed. And to think that she was forcing him to plead guilty to something he had nothing to do with. She is a horrible human and an even worse attorney. I never leave reviews like this but I felt it was necessary in this case to save other potential victims from the same fate we lived through.

Excellent lawyer

She stuck to the facts. She showed that I was trying to be a good citizen in society. All the accomplishments I had done before I picked up that new felony.all those things make a big difference in court when you have a background with nothing but felonies. She was courteous ,sincere,and gave you h...ope .thank you Darcy . i am going on 9 years out here. And I have a beautiful family now.
