Very similar to the other reviews, she made sure to let you know how lucky you were she was speaking to you for free. Total lack of empathy, did not listen only wanted to speak and interrupted constantly. At times made points irrelevant to the questions which showed she had already checked out perhaps never really checked in. So disappointing. Her bio made me think shed be someone who would want to be in your corner especially with kids on the line.

Worst conversation Ive ever had with an individual. I called to get some free legal advice as advertised on her google search ad! When I started to speak to her she right she stated her legal fees. I found it odd so mentioned I was calling to get her legal advise as advertised. She said OK she will call me back when shes in her car. So right away I knew that I wasnt going to be viewed as a potential client but nonetheless I did need her advice. Though out the conversation I told her my current situation and what I planned on doing. As the conversation continued her responses were belittling
