In response to earlier feedback,...

First of all I was never past due on any payments, I even payed after you told me you wanted to withdraw. You withdrew because I didn't want to continue paying 50 dollars per contact on the server that had the answers to the questions you already asked in previous questions. Second I didn't authori...ze you to disclose any details about my case, I'm anyomus here so I'm sure that's what you will hide behind but I find it unprofessional. Finally yes you were at the hearing where the judge ordered the payment "to the clerk" they wouldn't take my money on the ground floor so I mailed it to the address she said she lived at and when you finally uploaded the written instructions with a mailing address for the clerk I explained what I did and asked if I should cancel the check and write a new one to the clerk and your exact words were "he'll no",...imagine my surprise when 2 months later you seem shocked that I wasn't paying the clerk. In my honest opinion Samantha Thomas is a good lawyer that just has too many cases going at once.

More money doesn't mean better lawyer

Constantly had to remind her what was going on in my case, months and months went by, motions, contuances, compelling documents, she accomplished nothing for me and was annoyed when I didn't want to take the opposings "deal" not in my favor but it would have been an easy close and move on for her. Sh...e is only caring about her clients if their cases are easy and she doesn't have to do any prep work for her too high retainer. Find a lawyer that cares about you not about her bottom line.

Be aware. Don't hire if you are a male.

I hired Mrs. Thomas as my attorney thinking that I she will be working for me, but in reality she was helping the opposing party. I was sending her emails and she couldn't give me straight answers. Just you know every answer though confusing and not satisfying it was, she charge for it. Confusing cli...ents increases more money on her side. Do not say that I did not warn you. She was not asking me what I want or giving me any advice concerning the whole matter. I regret hiring her.
