Hired Attorney Anne Beckert

Anne is the fourth lawyer I've retained, and she is by far the best. She has a wealth of experience, and somehow manages to be professional and personable and actually compassionate--a rare human! I was deeply upset and going through a very rough time when I found Anne, and she not only expertly took care of my legal issues but was encouraging and supportive. Her communication is top notch--I'm the sort that needs to know everything that's going on and she always took time to explain things to me so that I understood them. Her fees are standard and quite reasonable. She's also LGBTQ-informed and friendly, which was a pleasant surprise for me.

Hired Attorney Anne Beckert

Working with the lawyer was a horrible experience. I paid an upfront fee to retain but had to consistently reach out for updates regarding an agreement. After a year I was no closer to resolving my case than from day one when I retained Anne. She kept promising to get better a communication, stated my case was a priority. Each week became an excuse or promise failed related to my case. Eventually, she clock out! I tried to sever ties and asked for an update before letting her go and still got nothing. I had to start all over; seeking new counsel! I regret retaining her and letting her string my case along for a year with promising to help and share updates. I was very patient with her and extremely understanding but feel she never intended to resolve this matter. She asked for 2 retainer fees; to start and another to draft an agreement...When her "word" was no longer valuable I asked for the 2nd retainer fee back as she did nothing to move my case forward.
