Pros
1
Expertise in complex legal matters, including estate planning and family law
“Her combined knowledge and experience with estate planning and family law was exactly what I needed.”
2
Effective advocacy and preparation leading to favorable outcomes
“She was always several steps ahead of my husband's high priced lawyer and was able to reach a fair settlement without having to go to trial.”
3
Commitment to client's best interests and building confidence
“She not only fought for what was mine, she helped me rebuild my confidence in myself after such a difficult separation and divorce.”
4
Trustworthiness and fairness recognized by opposing parties
“The irony is when we settled the divorce, my ex-husband paid Dorothy to draw up the settlement, instead of using his own attorney, and by his choice! Even he knew by the end, she was the one to be trusted to be fair and do an excellent job!”
Cons
1
Lack of organization and missed deadlines
“She missed many court deadlines. She also does not have a secretary or paralegal, so you end up paying her high attorney fees for secretarial work.”
2
Unresponsiveness to client's privacy concerns
“During Dorothy and I's Phone conversations, I constantly heard other people in the same room. I asked her to step outside to continue our conversation because it was personal and she didn't.”
3
Tendency to prolong cases to increase billable hours
“She will continue to fight even when there is no more $ to fight. She will get her share and that is all she in interested in doing.”
