Worthless

I hired Tami Ratliff for a child custody case. (In 2009) Visited with her assistant once and her on the 2nd visit. After that, I called numerous times regarding my case but couldn't get a return phone call. They kept telling me she would call me when she was ready to get my case together (all the way... up until the day before court). She called me the morning of court and told me she didn't know what to do because we hadn't talked "so she withdrew as my attorney and don't go to court, a new hearing will be set". I literally got screwed for not showing up to court! When I called back the following day and once again talked to her assistant, she argued that "Mrs Ratliff would not have done that". OH BUT SHE DID DO THAT!

Thank you!

Throughout my case, I appreciated Tami and her staff's compassion. I did not feel like I was an inconvenience or that my case didn't matter to them. Tami was able to confidently answer all of my questions. Will definitely use her again if needed.

Good lawyer but needs better support staff and smaller case load.

My only concern with Mrs. Ratliff was the inability to give full attention to my questions and concerns. It seemed that she had too many other things on her mind than my case. Eventhough the overall out come of my case was favorable; her lack of customer support earns her an average rating.
