Hired Attorney

I have consulted with Sandy twice now. I once consulted with her about 17 years ago, though I didn’t recall this until just recently when I had a second consult , and she told me she remembered me from the first consult. Though I was unable to retain her, through no fault of hers, and more having to do with my financial means, I’d highly recommend her for any family law case. She knows her stuff ! I found her to be direct , yet still empathic and very knowledgeable. She also tried to help me find alternative resources for representation.

Hired Attorney

She charged $10,000 retainer but didn't work on anything. She didn't even file for substitution of attorney, didn't respond to my emails, didn't take any action on my case for weeks. When I asked her to drop out of my case, she charged me for 2 hours of time for doing nothing. She is mainly looking to steal money without working on anything. She is a liar and thief

 
Response from Sandra
March 31, 2020
This is a FAKE review. I do not charge a $10,000 retainer fees. I respond to clients by email or phone in a reasonable amount of time. I would never charge someone 2 hours for "doing nothing" and refuse to sign a substitution of attorney when asked.
