I found a question someone posted here on Avvo.com that was similar to my own situation. What got my attention was how the answer Mika Spencer gave was valuable in and of itself, rather than purely an attempt to pitch a sale. So we communicated through this website, and I eventually hired her and her... firm. All the preparation that went into the case seemed like a solid process, and let to a successful outcome.

I had great promise after talking to her, and felt after all I had been thru I could actually have help with my case. After I hired her to assist with my federal EEOC and spent money traveling for additional case review, and I paid her $12,000, she basically stopped answering my calls and emails. S...he made me feel like I was to blame and that I would be a poor witness if my case ever made it to trial. That is her job as a lawyer, just like my job is to help people. She takes 3 months between emails and she is unreachable it is one excuse after the next. I submitted my demands letter to regional counsel and after the RC did not respond that was it, have not heard back since May. I have copies of every email where she apologizes and gives excuses, promises to call, but never does. Please contact me if you are a federal employee thinking about hiring this women to help you with your EOC. I had been thru hell for 4 years at work, and trusted this women to help, she essentially only made it worse by taking all my savings and leaving me with no hope. If I had money I would file a suit against her. I am sure she will try to say I am to blame but she is not fit to help people in my situation. She should have turned me away and never accepted my money. She knew my case prior to me traveling to see her and spending close to $15,000 of my hard earned savings, she has nearly destroyed my family and caused me more damage than anything that happened at my work.

Mika Spencer settled my case and did a superb job. My employer was hard to deal with while I was still working there and after I left. His attorney was also hard to deal with. That is why I had to get legal representation. I found Mika on Avvo and I am glad. First I called two other lawyers but they... never called me back. After Mika’s paralegal called me back and got my information, then Mika called me and we talked and then she made an office appointment for me. Then at the appointment she read my papers and asked questions then agreed to take my case. I loved that Mika sent me emails with copies of everything my boss sent her and his lawyers sent her and everything Mika sent to his attorney. I liked it that Mika kept me informed. I never had to ask what was going on. I am satisfied with Mika and how she represented me. I am glad the Avvo web-site listed her and I thank Avvo for providing this place for questions and answers. It is helpful to people like me who don’t know where to find good lawyers.
