Must avoid

You should expect to waste time and money if you hire her. She was so busy and kept postponed my case even just some simple paper works. She even used an amateur paralegal to take care of my case and charged me two dollars per hour. My case ended up with mess. and returned by court. After all these,... she blamed everything on me.

If you don't want to lose everything, change her now

I chose her because I speak Mandarin and I thought it will help case communication but it ends as a nightmare. She was very mean to me and said it's court training for you but she was very nice to opposite side. No matter what I requested her to say or to do in the court, she rarely did it but no mat...ter what other party asked, she mostly said Yes. She has no idea about tech company profit sharing and you need to spend your time and money teaching her. She called me to discuss the case in the night, even 10pm. She is terribly incompetent in the court and made my first hearing totally a mess. I'm not even sure if she knows family law. I changed her immediately after that and my case suddenly is totally different. If you don't make your case worst, find another one.

Melinda has changed my viewpoint on attorneys in general

I want to express my deep appreciation to Ms. Melinda Zhang for representing me not long ago. Since the first meeting with Melinda, she has always provided me with her courtesy and professionalism. Melinda is not like some other attorneys who only cares for your money. She cares for me not only as a ...client but also as a person. In the whole time working with her, she has always listened, learned and led. One time I remember I called her at 11 pm, she answers the phone and talked with me for almost an hour before we hung up, with 100% patience. I don't know how much homework she did on my case, the only thing I know is she convinced the judge and won the case for me! I overheard in the courtroom my type of case in general is difficult to win. I can tell from the face expression of the judge, he was not only convinced but even touched by her way of presenting my case and me! What's more, Melinda learned my financial situation, she then wrote quite some fee off my bill and subsidized for me!! I cannot say thank her enough I really appreciate it great deal! The experience with Melinda is not only appreciated and grateful, but also totally changed my viewpoint on attorney. Attorneys are human beings and they can be warm hearted and passion for the righteousness!!! I strongly admire Melinda as a lawyer and also her noble decency as a human being! Thank you Melinda! You are my life saver!
