Hired Attorney

It has been several years since Mrs Hess represented me. She was kind and caring during my divorce not only towards me but my children. Did she expect you to do what she told you to do Yes, she is upfront and calls it like it is. I recently had to call her regarding my S.O. Grandchild and thank s to Ann he is living with us and is getting the care and attention that he needed. I would highly recommend Mrs Hess

Hired Attorney

THE WORST LAWYER YOU COULD EVER HIRE. if you want to lose and be completely bled dry of all your money, hire her. She’s insane, disorganized, charges you double for everything, breaks multiple laws and then charges you for it. She’s awful! Lost my case and lost over $30k! Had to hire a new lawyer to come clean things up after Ann ruined everything for me.
