Posted by disgusted | March 24, 2015 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

I would give no stars, but I had to give 1!!

I was a young college student who relieved a reckless driving speeding ticket. She made me feel like I had to lawyer up and charged me 650$. When it was my turn to go up she was so unprepared and unprofessional. It's as if never stood in front of a judge before. After she got into it with the judge,... she left and never came back. I was the last one to go as a result and the judge dropped my ticket. I couldn't find her and when I called her she said she would refund half my money. she never did and she ignored ally calls. The cops were shaking there heads in disgust when they heard what she charged me!!!I would not reccommend her to ANYONE!!!!

Alana’s comment:

“This was a filing deadline issue that happened only several months after the law practice was opened. A more effective proceddure was put in place to prevent it from happening again. Both instances happened within weeks of each other, but pursued by the State Bar at different times.”
