Thank You!

Susan was great. She always had an answer for any question, will give you an honest and direct answer and was easy to get a hold of. Court was a very stressful time for me and my family and Susan has a calming affect that comes from her years of experience and knowledge. She always knew exactly what ...to say and when to say it and never lost patients with me or my family over all the questions, e-mails and phone calls. She really knows the legal system and is genuine in her fight for her client. The outcome of our case was a gift that would not have been possible with out her expertise.

Amini Law Firm

Extremely unprofessional and unethical. Would have to email 4 or 5 times to get her to answer. It would take two months for something she'd tell me would take a week with no communication between. Consistently dropped communication throughout my entire divorce then would suddenly pop up with docum...ents for me to sign immediately and to come into her office to do so. Said she'd work with me on her fees and with payment, then once she began work on my case, became extremely money focused and even ended up filing a lien against me because I stood my ground with her. Please never hire this woman!!!

horrible, awful, incompetent lawyer, run away!!

i wish i could rank her lower! she would pop up with papers to sign NOW in her office. and then sent them in days after the date they were required in. she showed up two hours late for court, was unresponsive to phone calls or emails, when in court was fighting against me. fighting about things i did...n't care about and had nothing to do with my case. incredibly hard to work with and has no ability to help anyone but her pocket book! i fired her and she took three weeks to remove her self from the case and charged me for the time. she put me in collections and added a second retainer fee to the amount. scandalous is not harsh enough to describe this awful and incompetent lawyer.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
