Stay Away!!!!

Ms. Adams made me feel terrible during my divorce proceedings. She actually would say that I had messed things up and would sigh and act like I was an idiot. She requested the same documents from me over and over, which I sent...over and over. When I would arrive at our meetings, she had never eve...n opened them and would waste our time pushing the papers around, demanding to know what I thought I had included--which was everything...precisely...that she had requested. At times she seemed more interested in my spouse's interests than in mine--her own client. There are many good, qualified attorneys out there. Anne C. Adams is NOT one of them. Stay away.

Many people feel poorly during a divorce. It can be a difficult experience. I try to help my clients feel better about the situation. Since I don't know who you are, I don't know if you acted in some way, which made your divorce more difficult. If I think that a client is taking an action that is damaging to their case, I discuss it with the client so we can improve the situation. I also try to give my client the other side's perspective so they understand that there are two sides to a situation, and the client understands the type of issues that will probably be presented to the Judge by the other side. I always represent my client's interests, not their spouse's interests. Sometimes if a client better understands the other party's perspective, it helps us settle the case and save the client money. We typically request that clients bring their documents into the office at the time of their appointment. It seems that there may have been an email problem if we requested the documents more than once. If this person would like to contact me directly by telephone, I will see if there is anything I can do to improve your experience.

You can't Find A Better Atterney

I have had my share of dealing with attorneys and legal problems. From my experience I can tell you you can not find any better attorney than Ann. She is experienced and very knowledgeable about law. But the most important thing to me is that she cares and works with you. I could not afford an attorn...ey to represent me when I went to her she did not let me hanging she made shore I have filed the right papers and made shore I am well prepared to represent myself in court. Walking in the court room I was well prepared and everything possible had been taken care of. All the rulings where in my favor in the 1st hearing. I have a good chance of winning against a well experienced attorney thanks to Ann. She is to the point with preparing my legal briefs for the court and very fair with her fees. It just doesn't come better than this. I would recommend her any day with out any hesitation to any one who needs legal help.
