Deb was hired as an attorney for our custody trial for my son. It’s been a 6 year battle and she has no ambition to get our case resolved. She doesn’t advise us appropriately and has no drive to get our case moving.
I payed her a $3500 retainer after my divorce when I had a custody issue in juvi for medical neglect. She told me what paperwork to file (which now has me in a 2 yr custody battle); forensic and now have realized how much trouble her advice has cost me and my children. She then sends me an email the day before the hearing and says she is withdrawing she is too busy. I took 2 weeks off from work to get everything copied and organized that she asked for before the hearing. Lost that work then she refused to return my retainer for doing nothing. I ran p and got everything I gave her and starting frantically looking for another attorney, and she then lies to the court she cannot represent me since I took all of the paperwork and she did not have any files from me. I asked for my retainer back she argues I did not pay. I send her receipts, most in cash and credit cards, she likes cash and 3 weeks later I get invoices for things she never ever did and refused to return it.
I would not suggest her for any type of work. Informationw as provided to her and she did not review it. Agreements were made in court and now they cannot be kept because of her not reviewing information that was provided to her. I did most of the investigative work and provided so much information to her and she still screwed up filiing the incorrect paperwork with the court system and then it sat for nearly 3 months which cost me nearly $2,000 in income. I WOULD NOT SUGGEST HER TO ANYONE
