Complete waste of time and money

I hired Paige in 2016. She made a ton of promises, and made me feel better. After I hired her and paid her retainer, she waited months to file anything with the court. Fast forward to 2019 when I finally fired her. In those 3 years nothing got accomplished, our case was constantly continued for a myr...iad of reasons. Her office staff, and especially her paralegal Kelly, are just as worthless as she is. No one returns calls, no one returns emails, and you're left hanging. Her office was excellent though at calling and demanding more money, saying they need it in the next 7 days, or they'll file a substitution of attorney form with the court (her office firing you as a client), and also threatening to not show up in court. I spent well over $20k on her services, and got absolutely nothing in return. If you're thinking Paige will really help you, and get some resolution in your case, think again. She makes great big promises that she knows she has zero intention of keeping.

BE AWARE

*****BE AWARE**** IF YOU WANT A LAWYER TO RUN IN CIRCLES & PRETEND TO GO TO COURT IN YOUR DEFENSE. SPEND YOUR MONEY & PROMISE YOU THE WORLD. ONLY TO CONSTANTLY CONTINUE YOUR CASE OVER & OVER AS IF YOUR LIFE IS THIS GAME THAT SHE PLAYS AT YOUR EXPENSE!!!! TO ADD TO INSULT SHE KNOWS SHE IS GOING TO... TO CONTINUE & CONTINUE YOUR CASE IN COURT, ONLY TO SAY SHE NEEDS MORE MONEY BECAUSE OF ALL THE CONTINUATIONS SHE HAS REQUESTED IN COURT TO PROLONG UNNECESSARY MATTERS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED SWIFTLY. GREED IS HER NAME, BE AWARE & PLAY HER GAME IF YOU WANT TO LOOSE A LOT OF TIME & MONEY$$$

Worst exp ever!

I paid her almost 10k and she did nothing but extend my court dates, just so she could charge me for her show up time and also for every piece of paper and call she wasted. I ended up cutting her out of the picture and fought my own case. it was over within a month. I wouldn't recommend her or her t...eam. They just give you the run around.

review

Hired this attorney to represent my mother. She required a down payment of 4500 after convincing us she will fight for our mother. This attorney was supposed to set up a three way meeting with the other party to discuss an agreement. We constantly called asking when she was going to set this meetin...g up. We continued to get her secretary promising us the attorney would get the message and gave us the run around. We sent emails to this attorney with paperwork that was required from court only for her to always claim she never received them. After a year of giving us the run around my mother finally spoke up to the attorney reminding her of all the irresponsibility and lack of representation in a kindly manner, only for this attorney to threaten my mother of discontinuing her services. After milking us of the money we put into her. This was very disappointing. This attorney is very good with convincing you of her services but fails to come through. I wish I would of known better before investing in her.
