Child support case

I hired Deborah Poole to Handle a child support case for me. Mistake after mistakes were made on my case. Then my case sat for months. I finally fired her. She sent a bill to for work that was never done.

Very sneaky and little time for your case

I understand if you're busy then don't take on the case!! She did every thing last minute showed up late, made us do things we did not want to do, she kept pushing the court date back to give her more time, did not subpoena the mediator as asked assumed the other party would, nor did she call my othe...r witness to testify as planned,$3,000 retainer gave her she asked for more money thought everything was done and then bam six months later sent a bill for over $8,000 with all of these crazy fees I knew nothing about. I should have known not to stick with her when she got a different paralegal and hired her sister in law, who knew nothing about the case and kept billing me for things that was paid for already with the previous paralegal who was always sweet and on her job. If you want a lawyer who will have time for you, and know every detail about your case DO NOT hire Deborah.
