Absolutely the worst attorney experience I have every encountered. I was unfortunate that I had to hire Amy since my other attorney was on vacation and I needed a matter handled within a time restraint. I wanted a "Super Lawyer" I got the "Worst Lawyer". I signed a retainer for a motion and gave her the retainer of $2,500.00. The retainer agreement states that they will inform me when the retainer runs out and they will notify you when it does. I was notified alright, after the retainer ran out and after I was billed an additional $5,400.00, for a total of $8,000.00, yes, you read that right. Mind you, I wrote the majority of my motion and cross motion. She just rewrote it with revisions and went to oral argument. After reconciling the bills there were about $900.00 in charges just for phone calls. Phone calls I was asked to call them back to answer questions they had. In the last 9 years of my divorce I had roughly 20 motions and I have never paid more than $2,500.00 for a motion including oral argument with my other attorney's. Amy and I discussed an appeal after the poor outcome and results. She told me it would be between $10,000.00-$15,000.00. We are talking about a basic issue and appeal. The last appeal I had with my prior attorney that was on vacation was $5,000.00 and more complex. I trusted Amy's initial advice not to combine both issues I had in the motion because she thought the judge would have gotten confused. That was a big mistake and a juvenile move. The judge was furious that approximately 30 days later we were back in court and should of addressed the other issue at the same time. I could of done the same job if not better representing myself with the outcome she achieved. I thought an attorney would have guided me in the right direction. I thought wrong. I would not recommend her for any type of representation especially oral argument unless you like to be embarrassed while being overcharged. Their slogan compassion, guidance and resolution should be changed by adding no to each one. I forgot to mention they filed a civil case against me for the balance. I should of fought it but dealing with family law is hard enough. We Settled. read more
