Amy will bill you to death for minimal work by her or her office. You will do 90% of the work and still get billed for nothing done by her. there were times that she would never respond to an email until I followed up with it. we had court and I had equations and emailed her, and never received a response until the day of the hearing. I will end up paying her more than $6000+ to her office for very little representation. I would have been better saving my money and representing myself as I would of gotten the same outcome.. Don't waste your time or money.. now as a disabled veteran I have to pay this lady 3k more and not sure what she actually did.

My experience with Megan Nolan as a Guardian ad Litem was profoundly unfair and unprofessional…read more She refused to review or include critical evidence I provided, declined to conduct any meaningful investigation, and would not visit my home despite repeated requests. This evidence was significant enough that my own attorneys acknowledged it and attempted to correct the record, yet she still refused to include it in her report. I was also denied equal access. When I asked for additional time to speak with her, I was refused, while the opposing party was given considerably more hours. This unequal treatment created a strong appearance of bias and prejudgment. A Guardian ad Litem is ethically obligated to remain neutral, investigate all relevant facts, and act in the child's best interests. In my case, Ms. Nolan failed in these duties, issued a one-sided recommendation, and harmed the outcome of my case. I also personally overheard her office staff speaking disrespectfully about an elderly client and discussing matters related to that client's will in a way that felt inappropriate and unprofessional. Based on my experience, I believe her conduct was unethical and below the professional standards expected of a Guardian ad Litem.

After calling 3-4 times and being somewhat dismissed to promised a call back within days, then promised a call back in hours by the admin in the other end, I've come to the conclusion that they are not looking to take in business at this time. I've left my name and number each time (felt like I was forcing my last name with how quickly I was pushed off the line). No call back, website Contact Us link is inoperable, no email offered. I feel that if I must make an in-person visit just to speak with a lawyer and pay for services, it's asking a bit much.

Rather than looking at his customers as money he looks to win the case for you in the best possible way that he can. He returns your calls no matter what and in a timely manner even on vacations. He works his butt off and it shows in a trial case. This is the only attorney I would recommend to any family or friends... He tells you straight up front how much you may spend and tries to make it as less as possible. That's why I'm going out of my way to give him the respect he deserves. A+++.
