Hired Attorney 2020-2021Charlotte agreed to represent me in a divorce and I must say that it was the worst experience in my life during a hard time. She claimed to missing court dates on her children using her business laptop deleting my emails which resulted in sanctions on myself leading to massive fines. She also claimed that their servers went down a total of 3 times as to why she was not able to respond to my emails. Charlotte really screwed me over and cost me thousands of dollars. This is a warning to all that she is not out to help you out rather than take your money doing the absolute minimum to help you out. She did apologize and said she would make it up to me by completing the paper work for the other attorney when it came to them claiming my retirement. Which with my new lawyer were made to complete themselves as they are the ones getting the money. She is extremely shady and full of excuses. Nice person but full of excuses, also realize your data is not protected letting her children use her laptop. Who knows what data I had given her was compromised and given out to the general public. Very unprofessional and an absolute armature when it comes to her practice. At all cost avoid her representing you for anything. Please respond with any questions I have an enormous amount of evidence to prove her unprofessionalism. She will be hearing from my new attorney regarding these issues and ethics she displayed during my divorce costing me thousands. I hope this saves someone else from getting screwed over by this lady.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
