Pros
1
Compassionate and understanding approach
“Upon meeting with Mellanie I felt that she understood me and was compassionate and understanding towards my case and I wasn't just a number at the DMV.”
2
Effective in achieving desired outcomes
“She quickly helped me garner 50/50 custody of my daughter and dealt with the many other issues that came up during that timeframe regarding other parties' obstinate and unreasonable attitude and position.”
3
Availability and responsiveness to clients
“She has always made herself available to me if I have had questions or concerns. I've told her I don't know how she does it with clients in different places and times, but she has always gotten back to me in a timely manner and kept me informed of the process and current events.”
4
Advocates for the best interests of the child
“Another very admirable quality about Mellanie is that she advocates not just for her client's best interest, but for that of the child, in my case Savannah. Some attorneys only have their clients best intentions at heart but she possess both, which I think any parent would/should be happy to hear.”
5
Excellent legal expertise and preparation
“She is also a brilliant legal mind. Sometimes you are lucky to get one of those and she possesses both (compassion/understanding and the legal know how).”
Cons
1
Potential issues with communication and following client instructions
“She gave wrong info, claimed I didn't contest my ex wife taking all of my belongings, lost my child custody and cost a fortune to fight back after I got rid of her. She does what she wants in court and doesn't listen to her client.”
2
Unreliable attendance and delegation of work
“Most of the time she doesnt even show up, she has someone else show up for her.”
