She did an excellent job at my consultation. However, I had an urgent follow up question which I needed counsel on and she never called me back.. this was after 3 calls to her secretary who recognized the urgency of the situation and promised she would relay the message to Gail quickly. Even if Gail was not interested in my question, I would have appreciated a response instead of having to wait and lose two valuable days before I found another lawyer who was more concerned.
Gail told me I did not have to take off work for the court date, she would be there to handle everything. She didn't even show up and of course I lost.
Referee Baker oversaw my divorce case. Right from the beginning she showed extreme impatience, and favoritism. There was a double set of standards whereas one side consistently violated the stipulations, yet when brought to her attention, no enforcement was taken. Yet when the opposing side was simply late on filing and contested, she immediately ruled in favor and gave short timeliness. Tens of thousands of dollars were wasted in legal fees in providing undeniable facts, yet she took the position of it no longer matters. It was simply unbelievable to see how consistently she would make rulings on minuscule issues of little concern, yet turn a blind eye to other huge financial issues of squandered resources by the opposing party. I have dealt with many referees in settling many small claim actions regarding unpaid client accounts over decades of business management, and by far she has clearly displayed bias regardless of the facts presented. One thing for sure, you will win or lose simply based upon one thing right from the beginning. Which Attorney & Client does she favor. The facts otherwise are irrelevant.
No communication throughout the process, Never tried to protect my child even though abuser was charged with felony. Worked against me with all issues. Was late twice to court leaving me very anxious at the start of the court proceedings. Would not listen to my concerns. Always seemed to be for the other side. Very disorganized and seemed nervous when opposing attorney presented lies against me.
