Kathleen Eusebio Alparce

I am writing to express my concerns regarding the professional conduct of Kathleen Alparce. It is my belief that her actions reflect a serious lack of ethical considerations. Specifically, she appears to impose significant legal and personal risks on her clients, seemingly prioritizing the opportunit...y to increase her billable hours over the welfare of those she represents. Additionally, I find it troubling that she has engaged the services of another attorney who has a documented history of disciplinary actions and disqualifications, raising concerns about the integrity of her practice. This choice suggests a willingness to delegate her professional responsibilities to someone with little regard for maintaining a reputable standing in the legal community. Such decisions ultimately do not reflect well on the legal profession.

Her written advocacy and analytical rigor were, at best, underwhelming. However, her street smart shocked me. She nearly succeeded in transforming what should have been a routine, low-stakes demand letter into a full-scale legal dispute by subtly undermining my legal position in correspondence with o...pposing counsel—an issue I did not immediately detect—and by provoking unnecessary hostility on both sides. In doing so, she compromised her client’s position in a manner that appeared to advance her own interests rather than those of the client.

I experienced significant financial harm due to this attorney's practices. Upon reflection, her business model appears to involve two main strategies: Strategy 1: Provoking conflicts to instigate lawsuits, often dragging clients into legal battles involuntarily. In my situation, she managed to... provoke the opposing side without my involvement. Strategy 2: Extending a straightforward, hour-long trial into a drawn-out week-long ordeal, resulting in billable hours that far exceeded her initial estimate—24.5 times more. Additionally, her legal acumen is lacking; her reading and comprehension skills seem to be at a high school level, leading to ineffective courtroom debates. Ultimately, not only did I suffer losses, but I also incurred additional costs for the opposing counsel's fees. This outcome appeared to be of little concern to her.

The following unpleasant surprises are gifts from Kathleen. 1. When she passionately persuade you that you have a case, she has not read the contract you have signed with the party you are trying to sue. How do you find out? Virtually all her arguments are dismissed the moment the opposing council p...oints out the terms of in the contract. 2. After she loses the case, she will not even explain to you why what she said is so different than what just happens in the trial. In stead, she askes for more money from you, as is demanded by the contract between you and her, which seems to the the only contract that she spend her precious time reading. It is not completely true that she is cheap and you get what you pay for. She is expensive if you consider the number of hours she bills you, especially how hard she tries to make the trial as long as possible. Even with a cheap hourly rate, she is extremely expensive. It is not true also because since she loses the lawsuit, you have to pay the attorney fee for the individual you are suing.

Be ready to lose money in the following way: 1. She loses almost every single argument in court and costs you the case 2. She charges you fees that is far beyond your imagination. Reason: she drags a trial estimated to be less than two hours on for days. (How else do you think her cheap rate woul...d help her with her rent?) 3. Since she has lost and also wasted time of the opposing counsel, you will pay for the time of the opposing council as well
