Andrea Merrell Caster

She lies under oath all the time. Her Attorney license should be revoked. She should be barred from her own practice. For her miss use of the law. She don’t care about any of your kids at all just attorney fees and shows up to court looking like a clown partially dyed hair in different colors with a ...yoga backpack, everything misplace.

I hired Andrea to help with what I thought would be a simple Domestic Violence case. I had an ex-partner who was sending me death threats and I we wanted a restraining order. We hired Andrea and then didn't hear from her for two weeks. At this point, we'd already paid her fee and were hoping that i...t was just taking a little while. When we called on the third week she didn't even remember who we were at first. When the restraining order had to go to trial it was rescheduled because she had never sent the notice papers and afterward told us we had to hire another person to deliver the court papers. I wish we'd known that before taking the day off work to appear in court only to have it rescheduled. So I had to request another day off work to go to court. The day of the case the Judge ruled that there wasn't enough evidence after 10 minutes of looking at the paperwork for the restraining order. When we asked Andrea what happened, she just said "this happens sometimes" and that we didn't have a lot of evidence. So not only do I still have a stalker sending me death threats, but now I'm out several hundred dollars and had to take time off work to go to court. The final kicker was when we received a bill for "admin fees" from her office for over a hundred dollars. When we asked she told us this was for court filing costs. When we showed her that she'd already charged us for them when we originally hired her she never replied.

I hired Andrea to help me in a desperately bad situation with my children. She NOT only got screwed in court but SCREWED me along with her. She refused to accept my response declaration which was the truth and demanded that I accept what her and her paralegal wrote stating "trust me, it's in the best... interest of your children. You have to submit it this way." Andrea being the attorney, I did. I trusted her. We go to court and guess what??? Not only did the opposing counsel knew she was lying, so did the judge. Do not use this woman. Her price and payments may sound like it's great, it isn't. Don't trust your children's life in her hands.
