Kari Ellen Yeomans

Hired her thru Cordell and Cordell. She billed an insane amount of money and did no work. After she was fired, she put in billing that ate up the $2500 deposit to draft a motion, go to court and have herself taken off the case. Demanded case file and received 31 pages of "proposed orders" that result...ed in back and forth emails at $150 per message to fix mistakes she had made in them but that were never given to the judge. The opposing atty took her into an office to discuss my arrearage (I had been out of work and knew I owed some, but they wanted double). She came back and cockily stated she told them I wanted arrearages wiped out to zero. She said that would be the starting negotiation but she had pissed off the other party and atty so bad by saying zero, they never came back to me. Fired her after two mediations where nothing was resolved and eight months where I had no visitation. I told her to get my child a GAL and she refused, saying it would make the judge mad. After I got the 31 page case file, I continue to receive bills for making those copies and found out she was no longer employed with Cordell and Cordell. By then it was too late. I lost 13K to her and the court ordered the full arrears since I had no one to fight for me. A year, 13K and 31 pages of emails and proposed orders. Not in anyone's best interest to hire her.
