disappointed

I was very disappointed in the service Rachelle provided during my case. My first court appearance was on a Thursday. I called her on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday before the court date. Never got a call back, text, email, nothing. Thursday as I'm driving to court she calls to tell me she would not b...e making it to court but would send another attorney. She stated that the attorney going know everything about my case. Once the stand in attorney showed up she wanted to talk to me because she knew nothing about my case. It was about a month from my first court date to the second court date. During this time Rachelle never once contacted me. I only met with her once for about 15 minutes which took almost a week of me trying to reach her to schedule that appointment. The second court date was schedule at 11:30am. She was not there so I called her. She told me she forgot about it because it was not on her schedule. She showed up about 12:10 since she had to drive so distance. She did not defend my side of the case at all. I was the one speaking up and defend myself the whole time. After that court hearing I never heard from her again even though I tried to contact her many, many times. She did finally answer her phone one day when I called her from a different phone number. I am so disappointed in her. She just took 1500 from me and did nothing.
