I'm not quite sure about the other reviewer's experience may have been, however, I retained her and was very impressed with her knowledge and experience in probate lawyer. She actually pointed out area's of my financial disclosures that my CPA missed. As far as her presenting as uncomfortable in the court room, we experienced a very different presentation altogether. She refuses to get lowered into the theatrics of showmanship and focuses on the applicable points of law that in the end helped us prevail. Opposing counsel was a bit more animated, but the law is the law and that was what mattered. She also treated my x and her attorney with much respect. 2 years later, even my former partner speaks well of her. Side note, she's down to earth and has a great sense of humor and you can tell her the truth and doesn't seem to judge.
She will ghost you, I hired janet m lydon for my divorce. She had not done anything for my case, the only that she did with any passion was send me invoices. She is a scam artist. She will put you along, drain your retainer and then blow you off. She is not in it to be an advocate for others, she is looking for a quick buck
I would not recommend Janet lydon to anyone. Her law firm is one of the most disreputable law firm I have ever com across. They are a dishonest frim, who try to bill you for doing nothings. I am going to file a small claim against her and report it to mass of bar council
I don’t even know where to start, but retaining Janet M lydon was the worst experience in my life. Even worse than my divorce itself. She lied to me before I gave her the retainer. I found out she was screwing up my case, so I fired her on days 4. She only worked for me less than 5 hours, but she over billed me the times she spend on my case. I asked some part of the retainer back and my case file. She refused to send me back some part of the retainer and have kept my entire retainer $3500 for herself. She is ignoring all my phone calls and emails. She also refused to send me back my case file. She has not done anything at the court for me and did not file the notice of her appearance at court. All she wants is to screw me out of my money. She is terrible, I need to file the complaint at the mass broad of bar oversees. Stay away from her law firm. She will get advantage of you when you are in the bad situation
My Ex didn't want to pay child support , thus the Department of Social Services came to visit. Upon them coming over all was great. Thus my son was able to stay with me. The worst part is Janet's inability to aid on discovery. My EX had over 75,000 more in his sep IRA. When I spoke to Janet and said " he has taken funds out approx 25,000 thus that needs to be recorded in discovery. When I asked for my paperwork back, she neglected to give me any of his SEP IRA back. I wrote to her asking for it and she lied and said she gave it back to me. I asked her to pull the SEP IRAs again and she refused to do it. I'm sure she shredded all of his financial documents.
I would not recommend Janet to anyone. She handled my divorce and neglected to review financial reports, never gave me impotant detailed reports from opposing counsel. She appears to get extremely intimated from aggressive counsels. It's sad that if your divorce is high conflict SHE is NOT the attorney you should hire.
