She represented through my divorce and custody matters, and she has been absolutely fantastic. She helped me save over $1M by negotiating a very favorable settlement for me. She is knowledgeable, pleasant, organized, and always treated me, her colleagues and my former spouse with the utmost respect. She always suggested what was in her opinion the best for my daughter. She is very strategic, and discusses the pros and cons of how short term actions might influence outcomes months or years away. She helped me navigating during the worst time of my life, always giving me the bearing towards the goal. While I hope to never have to use her services ever again, I will be eternally grateful.
This was me. Represented a Los Angeles entrepreneur in a contract dispute. Successfully vacated a default judgment against his client and then filed counterclaims. After discovery closed, the case settled on favorable terms, with money being paid to the client." He reversed a mulrti million dollar judgement and the counter sued with excellent results for me......Saved my life....The m ost professional and compassionate lawyer to fight for your rights against big bad guys....
We updated an existing special needs trust with living wills, power of attorneys. Very little was changed, however it was very expensive for a middle income family.

Hired Law Firm
Do not waste your money with this firm. I had over $10,000 spent on lawyers in this firm. I had to repeatedly call them to check on the status of my case. They sent out a total of 2 letters to my ex who was not following the legal documents we had signed during the divorce. The first attorney I hired at this firm left and I was never told that fact till after he was gone for quite a while. I was then recommended to go with a newer attorney in the firm. Who had no interest whatsoever in my case. Then I was informed if it went to court, she did not have the time to represent me. So why did I waste all of this money for lack of legal representation. Do not waste your money on this firm.
Worst attorney in state college, bar none! Do not waste your time, or money on her! Will lie, cheat and steal from you! Stay away! Worst attorney in state college, bar none! Do not waste your time, or money on her! Will lie, cheat and steal from you! Stay away!

Hired Law Firm
This is a first for me. Never once looked up ANY type of business to leave a review. This one though, couldn't let this one slip by. My only words of advice, do not let them drag you along. Set a FIRM (in writing) understanding of the outcome. What they suggest/promise will be over the phone (they love 15-30min conference calls just to add to your bill), not in writing... because at the end of the day.... they won't deliver. Hope your experience is better than mine. Or save yourself the worry, go elsewhere.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
