Not much help.
Spend $75 for not much help. Was told that I also need another kind of lawyer for this case and for her to take the case it would be $2,500 that I don't have. Advised me to go to Legal Help.

Replied last July 25, 2017I am sorry you felt this way. I always strive to make sure people leave my consultations with knowledge of what their next steps are. I understand that it is hard to remember everything from the consults so I always offer my email address for people to contact me if they have any other questions. If you are unsure of what your next steps are please feel free to call or email me and I will go over your next steps with you.
