Right lawyer for the job!

Linda handled my case professionally and quickly. I was in court literally for 11 minutes and walked out debt free. Linda does what she says she's going to do and I would highly recommend her.

Posted by anonymous | May 06, 2014 | Identity Theft

This attorney made our situation worse.

My husband and were victims of identity theft and our entire life savings stolen from our financial institutions. We identified the responsible party and the police are investigating. I went to Ms. Deos for help in pursuing the financial institutions for their lack of fiduciary responsibility, I ...gave her a $1000 retainer. I heard nothing from her until FIVE MONTHS later when she emailed me and said she would need another $10,000 to continue and that amount would go up. I got absolutely nothing for the $1000 retainer and had to find another attorney. Her delay greatly jeopardized our case. When I requested a refund, she finally sent me an itemized list of what she supposedly did. Included in that list was a charge for the one hour "complementary" consultation she promised me. When I told her I still wanted a refund she send me a refund check supposedly for two hours of her time. When I challenged the amount because it was no ways near what she claimed as her hourly fee, she sent me an additional check for $100. She still refuses to reimburse me for what she charged me for the "complementary" one hour consultation I am entitled to through my prepaid legal membership. Dealing with her has been a nightmare we did not need.

Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
