DO NOTHING LAWYER

DO NOTHING LAWYER I hired Anna Serrambana to represent me for an Elder abuse case against my mom and probate litigation during my mother's terminal illness. This was an excruciating time in my life, only exacerbated by Anna's lack of professionalism and knowledge about how to perform as promised. ...She performed at the Tball level while the opposing counsel was playing in the Major Leagues. On the rare exchange between Anna and opposing counsel, Anna was befuddled and over run. If you want to hire a weak, confused and negligent lawyer who doesn't return communication, hire this incompetent lawyer. I tried calling, texting and emailing Anna over a 5 month period and was ignored. I personally visited her office on numerous occasions and she was never there and still refused to reply despite messages left. I called her personal assistant, Mariela Rivas who also refused to return communication. A&R Law is a sham of a law firm consisting of Anna alone who, majored in hide and seek strategies throughout. I am currently suing her for incompetence and negligence and breach of fiduciary duty to her client. I wouldn't hire her to argue a spelling error in a spelling bee contest.

Unfortunately when the client and the attorney disagree on the way to proceed in litigation, the outcome will never be satisfactory. Attorneys are limited by the facts and the law. When other independent attorneys (one associated with the client) agree on the litigation plan you lay out, you need to proceed accordingly. I am bound to maintain professionalism in the court room and in my conduct with opposing counsel. I refuse to lower my ethical standards and play games in the courtroom or with opposing counsel.

Excellent service!

I don't think I've ever received this level of amazing service. Anna and Mariela went above and beyond anything I ever expected. I will recommend them to everyone I know. I have dealt with two other different estate firms in my lifetime and I won't ever go anywhere else for future Estate or Probate... needs.

Best of the Best

Anna is amazing. She gave me hope to know that I have a solid case and to pursue it. She knows trust and probate law. Her level of professionalism allows me to feel comfortable to leave it in her capable hands. She is prudent about what she makes charges on and saves me money where she can. I...e. Conference calls when court appearance is unnecessary. She advises me on how to proceed with different actions and allows for me to truly understand the tools available & the process. I highly recommend her.

Not sure what I would have done.

My husband always assured me that things were taken care of if he were to die, unfortunately there were things he hadn't done and I ended up needing to go through Probate. Not sure what I would have done without Anna's help and guidance. She explained what needed to be done and walked me step by s...tep through the process. We didn't know each other before she started helping me and she has literally been a Godsend. Truly can't thank her enough.

Great Advice!

Anna provided me a clear and concise understanding of where we stand in terms of Probate law.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Attorney Serrambana is a fierce genius in litigation. Her creative strategies and out of the box thinking are what sets her apart from other civil litigation attorneys. Her zealous advocacy skills translate to all work she performs on behalf of her clients. I recommend my friend Anna Serrambana without reservation. She has also taken the time to work with me on my own advocacy skills and mentored me through my first trial. For that, I and my clients are very appreciative because we won the case!"
