Exceptional divorce lawyer

great divorce lawyer for men - worked miracles .. In my opinion Wash state is one of the most unjust, capricious and matriarchal jurisdictions "period" - but in the area of family law it is draconian. When you got before one of Washington's corrupt lefty judges you want someone like Nancy there with ...you. Highest ethical standards - not sure what the other post was talking about. Thanks nancy

Modification

Nancy represented me in a parenting plan and support modification. She was always prepared, told me how it was and made sure I knew what my rights were. She may not always be available when I called but her assistant usually was or would get back to me. Nancy knows this business inside and out and... I was pleased with the outcome.

parenting plan

I was very dissapointed with Nancy, I was told she could take my case but she never seemed to know or remember anything after meeting with me. Very disorganized, I would have to reexplain my case to her everytime we talked if she returned my phone calls. I had a feeling maybe she was taking on too ...many cases. She showed up a half an hour late to a mediation hearing with my ex husband and his lawyer. That looked so bad for me. I was also not informed of some paperwork that my exs lawyer had sent Nancy which that paperwork was something we had already discussed and she was supposed to write it up. That was around the time she was not returning my phone calls. I read the paperwork my lawyer had sent my exs lawyer she threw me under the bus and said that I had not talked to her about what I wanted to do and that I didn't send the proper information to her on time. Which I always sent her what she needed when she asked me too. So I was very surprised that she wrote that about me. I guess she didn't want to look bad but I looked very bad and lost the case. She does not understand that her incompentancy was messing with me and my families lifes. I now have to pay her for her mistakes. If my case was too much I wish she would have said she couldn't take it. Very hurtful to not have your own lawyer have your back. Don't know what I need to do but if can atleast inform another person of her maybe it will help another person to not get screwed. I have never written a review but I just feel this needed to be said there were just too many things that happened for me not to be silent.
