Samantha Michelle Leschek Klass

At a scheduled review conference a week prior to my hearing, she blindsided me by shoving a substitute of counsel form in front of me to sign. There was no warning and she had listed me as pro pers, which at time did not understand. I was slightly behind on payment and had always paid in good faith. ... I didn’t sign it and found someone else on my own to get up to speed in less than a week. She then tried to bill me for that meeting. This wasted more resources and time. During an already stressful time in divorce process, I was shocked a junior divorce attorney would do this without any acrimony between us. It was clear she didn’t want to take on my contentious divorce case.
