"Ms. Camellia Saunders is a wonderful attorney; intelligent, knowledgeable, straightforward yet caring. Her staff is delightful to work with and extremely helpful. As to our specific case, it was a difficult situation. At its completion, someone in the legal field who knew our case well, asked me to 'extend his congratulations to my attorney on a job VERY well done.' I agree and am happy to highly recommend Ms. Camellia Saunders!!"

"I am leaving this review for a friend but as someone who has gone through a divorce and child custody battle themself, I can whole heartedly assure you I would never recommend Camellia to ANYONE. My buddy has been trying to get in touch with her for over a week and she has yet to respond. He had to go as far as calling her assistant to make an in office office appointment that she later punted to the next day. The next day he takes off work, shows up at her office and she is unavailable! No phone call, no email, nothing! He waits for her phone call all day...nothing! He has since had to go find other legal representation because she was so unresponsive and apparently unwilling to do her job to help him. It's no coincidence there are other reviews making similar claims about her lack of response or communication. She's either overbooked and over worked, or just flat out not doing her job"

"I loved working with Camilla Saunders- a very caring, respectful and knowledgeable Attorney. She assessed my individual needs, advised me of my options and put it all together for the master plan. Her Staff set the tone in the office and on the phone. They are so kind, Patient and invested in any questions or concerns."
