This Woman is Vile

Sinks will 100% take your money, but she will have no idea what's going on with your case. She has been sued by a group of ex-clients for her behavior. Her secretary does most of her work for her, and he is incompetent. She will pretend to be friendly and caring when you talk to her on the phone, and... then she will drag your case out for years, accomplishing nothing while charging you thousands and thousands of dollars. Absolutely do not hire this woman. You've been warned!

Too busy for another client but not too busy to bill you.

I understand that Tahra would get bad reviews because she is designated to help couples in contentious relationships to navigate co-parenting. However, Tahra is too busy to tend to urgent matters that arise. She's at a soccer match, really REALLY sick, in court, out of town, etc. Nor does Tahra h...ave time to call both parties when investigating allegations. One party says that the other party only feeds the child raw worms. She consults with herself and writes a finding stating that the allegation is true. She sends both parties a letter and a bill for an hour of her time. The kids say that they are locked in a closet. She consults with herself and writes a finding stating that the allegation is true. She sends both parties a letter and a bill for an hour of her time. Perhaps she was too busy to call you for a month? She is happy to bill you at double her regular rate to call you on a Sunday. You may not need a color coded calendar, but she's happy to have Tony make one and bill you for it. Tahra has a great game face smile when you first meet her. But, she does not have time to truly serve her clients. You might be willing to pay for her services at times, but she's too busy. Or, she simply doesn't care. There is not a clear litmus test to know what she will attend to and what will get ignored. You may need a parenting coordinator who you can trust. Your kids may need a good parenting coordinator. Tahra is just not the right one to make sure your kids are safe and healthy.
