"Was the most disgusting attorney I have EVER encountered in my life. She is a bully and will do whatever she can including belittling you. She will not protect children and will use any means to intimidate them. I would not use her as an attorney if she was the only option. Completely unprofessional, rude , uncompassionate and one of the against nastiest attorneys I have ever encounter. Find someone that has some dignity and respect."
