She was assigned as my public defender. To date I haven’t even spoken with her, and it’s been 6 months. I was finally able to retain an attorney on my own who has done in 2 days what she couldn’t in 6 months. Don’t hire this lady and if she’s your court appointed attorney, good luck because she sucks.
Was assigned Lisa Pardini as my attorney, she gave me the wrong date for one of my court dates, and I ended up missing it. When I confronted her she left me a really nasty and unprofessional voicemail, and when I called her back the next day, she basically yelled at me to get out of the courthouse, and when I asked for a copy of my dismissal papers, she hung up the phone on me. I will be writing to multnomah county defenders about the incident, and if she is assigned as your attorney, I would recommend trying to switch.
I was assigned this lawyer for a traffic violation. Upon completing multiple requirements I tried to contact Lisa Pardini multiple times, probably 20 or so. I not only never heard back from her- once from her assistant- but when I came to court for my dismissal she showed an hour late. Lisa did not know I had completed diversion, the DA confirmed, and she had no organization regarding her clients cases. I observed an incorrect plea entered for one client, and another was almost completely ignored as she sifted through a large stack of papers.
