5

“I cannot say enough GREAT things about Erika at this firm. She is so knowledgeable and helped me through one of the hardest times I have had to go through.”
Cons
1
Lack of communication and responsiveness from some attorneys
“I called to make a SINGLE payment on the account; which is not in my name, I did NOT sign an authorization to take funds from my account and yet they have been charging my card ever”
2
Billing issues, including overcharging, double billing, and lack of transparency
“They just don't care, but they do care to charge for each bill for a job they didn't finish.”
3
Unprofessional conduct, such as attorneys being distracted or disengaged during meetings
“She basically told me she was dealing with family things and that I know how things are, she's a mom and can multi-task. It was incredibly disruptive and made me lose focus on many occasions.”
4
Attorneys withdrawing from cases at critical times, leaving clients unsupported
“They just days before our report is due resigns from our case and doesn't finish the report. Now we have to start over, spend more money finding a new CFI.”
5
Bias and lack of impartiality, particularly from court-appointed Child and Family Investigators (CFIs)
“Erika Gebhardt (aka Erika Omer) is everything that is wrong with the legal system. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of having her assigned as your CFI, record every single encounter with her.”
