Jane Michelle Robertson

I hired Cordel and Cordel law firm to represent me in a sticky divorce Being new at this all seemed fine until I started trying to contact Jane with numerous questions about my case. I left a couple of voicemails to her and her paralegal but got no response so I emailed her and immediately receive...d a response. I asked a few questions via email but was not satisfied with the answer through reading the text. I informed her that I needed to speak with her to fully understand the position we were taking in my defense with no response. A second email was sent asking To speak with her and she replied saying she would call me that night...she never did and I fired her. Two weeks later I was billed an additional $469 to close my account! STAY AWAY

Jane is a joke! Never could have her full attention! Late, not properly dressed lazy, poor speaking, and couldn't stop embarrassing me in front of my witch of a wife! I requested from her countless times to provide me with the info I'd need before the first court hearing, but she couldn't even manage... that! She's only good at taking your money and false promises, she'll sweet talk and make you believe that you can get custody. I lost my daughters to an abusive ex-wife because of this woman! Accounts drained, Kids gone, heartbroken. Take my advice fellas!

I hired Jane Robertson to represent me for a divorce. The retainer was $2,500. We only went to court one time, which was the temporary custody hearing for my son, which she showed up 15 minutes late for. My wife and I had already agreed upon literally everything. Actually neither of us even needed an... attorney. Regardless, my wife's attorney drafted the paperwork for us and Jane Robertson did absolutely nothing. She didn't do any of the paperwork involved and there was no argument with the other attorney to make. All she did was sit next to me in a court room briefly, with her supervisor, Attorney Abercrombie, who was also absolutely unnecessary. Despite Jane Robertson's lack of activity in this case, she still somehow consumed my entire retainer, and then insisted that I owed her an additional $800. I told her I no longer needed her services, and she told me she had to file a motion to remove herself from representing me and she could get that done for $500 or less. I told her there's no way I was paying her $500, in addition to the $2,500 she already stole from me, to remove herself from my life, and that a person doesn't get a bonus for being fired. The firm she was with, Cordell Cordell, insisted I pay the additional $800, which I refused, and eventually I had to pay them an additional $400 to finally make them leave me alone and avoid having to hire another "attorney" to suck up more of my money dealing with this predatory law firm and it's employees. Avoid this woman. She's a criminal, and she's not even a good one, and she is most certainly not even close to being a good attorney.

After meeting with Jane and her supervisor to discuss my case. I felt that their firm and Jane would be my best option as they pride themselves on being divorce advocates for fathers. After the initial consultation there was a practice meeting which i had to remind her of. At the meeting she had th...e yellow notebook pad and used it to take notes. And the end of the meeting she insured me that she would have all of it organized by the next day for the temporary orders meeting. In the meeting, as well as the initial consultation, the main point of the divorce was discussed involving substance abuse of my spouse. The next day in the temporary orders hearing, the same yellow notebook was the only thing present, and she spent 30 seconds between each question as she flipped as if she were trying to answer questions from for a test and didn't know the answers. It was embarrasing. She also completely forgot the main point of my complaint (the abuse) and afterwards said "o yeah" when i reminded her about it. It put me in an extremely negative light with the temporary orders and i discontinued my services with this firm after my credit card was completely drained. They offered me roughly a 10% refund which i refused but they credited it back anyway and that was that. I am currently completing a complaint to the state bar association. I have since hired a competant attourney who has brought the entire case to my favor and look forward to it being completed any day now.
