Case dismissed, attorney resigned from case due to personal reasons
This lawyer took my Personal injury case in 2011, then in 2013 she could not continue due to a medical reason. Rather than keep the case within the firm, they had me sign paperwork to be my own lawyer and referred me to some PI Atty in Los Angeles, 120 miles away. I did not believe that I had time ...
I regret that your case did not work out for you. As you noted above, I recall that I explained the situation and provided you with assistance to find a different attorney. As you mention above, there was no other attorney in our firm that could handle the matter. I am sorry that you felt compelled to write this review some five years later, however, I believe that you had sufficient time to find a new attorney if you wanted to pursue the matter further. I wish you the best of luck in any future endeavors.

I consulted with Teresa regarding divorce issues and she gave me sage advice that saved me from making a big mistake! She is perceptive, personal and very sharp.
