BEWARE this self-serving Guardian ad Litem

Ms. Howard approached my attorney after sitting in court when the judge ordered a Guardian ad Litem to be appointed on my son's behalf. Little did I know, she was just a predator waiting to drum up business. As is stated on three other poor ratings at LawyerRatingz.com, she does as little work as pos...sible and leaves everything until the last minute. We were delayed 2 times because her reports weren't ready. When they were delivered, they were too brief and left my son's situation EXACTLY the same, in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. In fact, the judge went against her when we got to court. In my case, she did NOT interview my son's counselor, teacher, principal or daycare worker before making her first report. Only after my attorney insisted, did she try and contact any third party in my son's case. In the end, she only reached his daycare provider. DO NOT trust her as a Guardian ad Litem.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Suellen on a few matters involving friends or clients of mine who needed family law assistance. I have also referred many other lawyers, clients and friends to her. Suellen is smart, quick on her feet, practical, well-connected in family law circles and highly efficient. Her instincts are sound and her knowledge of the law, her adversaries and the bench keen. I cannot imagine getting more bang for the buck than what Suellen adroitly delivers. I recommend her absolutely."
