DO NOT HIRE THIS WOMAN!! She is a basket case, lies so much she forgets the lie she told you 5 min…read moreprior, she is a crook, does not know divorce laws. She thrives on drama. When you actually get her to commit to a meeting, she spends most of the time, as she's charging you, taking personal calls or calling friends asking what the laws of divorce are. Charged me $3,000 to retain and after a month ( case was about to be dismissed for non progress) of pushing her and listening to lies as to why she hadn't done anything in my case as promised, I had to go to court house and file my own motion and get my own court date. In 3 days I got done what she had a month and a half to do. Ended up on day of final judgment having her withdrawn from my case and representing myself and getting my divorce final by myself. She then threatened to put a lean on my house for $1200 more if I didn't pay in 30 days. All she literally did for me was file a motion to say she was the attorney on my case and one phone call to FOC. She did however blow up my phone to talk about " crazy clients" she has, ask for good reviews, and talk about how she fired her secretary for opiate addiction and asking for her pain pills. This lady is crazy!!! Also stood me up 2x. Save your money!!!

8/18/16 Very disappointing firm (my opinion). UPDATE…read moreHorrendous firm. November He was hired to handle the estate for my mom in her passing. A very difficult time. We were told that it was pretty straight forward and should have swift results. The first costly error set things back for 3-6 months. He does not respond to inquiries, requests in email or by phone. At one point I could not get a hold of him at all for 6+ months. I feel like I am being held hostage by someone we hired! Please, don't hold your breath. If I had even had an inkling about this I would have looked elsewhere. Painful is an understatement. 9/7/16 Finally contact from him. He stated that it would be last week. Again can't get a hold of him. Countless emails and phone calls to get an update. Doesn't seem to hold customers in very high regards. (Again my opinion based on observation and actions) 11/22/16 The Firm must be manipulating and taking money as he is doing everything to avoid talking to us. Now he is leaving the firm. His other lawyers Andrew thomas and ryan barr are doing nothing to help with this either. This has gone on for over 2 years. This firm is NOT one that you want to put your money or family estate into based on my experience. MY OPINION IS TO AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!
