Very disappointed with this attorney. I was lead to believe the outcome would go one way, however, the case was ruled completely opposite. Extremely expensive and always seemed to be getting a bill for something, but not quite sure what was being done. Wasted money. Lots of miscommunication. Hard to get ahold of.
Hired her for a divorce. I ended up firing her, but not after she mucked things up royally and took several thousands of dollars to attempt to fix by another attorney. Judge signed orders in favor for me, but was informed by Ms. Spalding they had been declined. I found out over 6 months later the judge signed them costing me in excess of $6,000, and more importantly, custody of my child. Missed a child support hearing due to never being informed by my lawyer. She never went to court either. That ended up costing my over $3,000. I was essentially told by her to "take" (kidnap) my own child and not to return them to the other parent, even if the police are notified. (I did not do this in the interest of my child.) My divorce was pushed out over 6+ months costing me an additional $10,000 + over the course of this time and lost time with my child.
