I reached out to Chiri Rutledge’s law firm after a previous attorney I hired resulted in me getting my license suspended. My license was never suppose to be suspended. Frustrated with this outcome, I reached out to the previous attorney I had but she went ghost and wouldn’t return my calls. When I called Ms.Rutledge and signed her paperwork she immediately filed a motion for me. I had to wait 4 months to get a hearing but Ms.Rutledge kept me updated and even thought of creative ways where I could possible seek a limited driver’s permit to help with the cost of Ubers and the inconvenience of not having a driver’s license. On the day of my court hearing Ms.Rutledge promptly showed to court and she was fully prepared to make her remarks to the judge to reinstate my license. The judge agreed with Ms.Rutledge and I got my drivers license back after having it suspended for over 6 months because of the mistake of a previous lawyer. I am forever grateful to have a lawyer who truly represented my case with facts, evidence, and justice.

I hired this attorney from off the record to dismiss a simple traffic ticket. It took many months to do so. She is mostly unresponsive, but I gave benefit of the doubt. Finally, she had me meet up with her to provide cash for this ticket that she said was reduced to a nonreporting ticket. I paid the fine. It took almost 3 weeks to get confirmation of a receipt or case closure despite me asking constantly with emails ignored. Finally she sent me paperwork stating she entered a GUILTY plea WITHOUT MY CONSENT OR KNOWLEDGE FOR THAT PLEA! She NEVER communicated that was the plan. If I knew that I would've fired her immediately. I have 3 points on my license, my insurance went up, I paid a fine, AND an attorney for this outcome? I could've done that MYSELF! I could've gotten a better outcome myself! I am a student which is why I chose to get a lawyer to handle this. I regret my decision. She's also rude with a bad attitude. I am so disgusted with her and her service. Stay far away. You will lose your case.

I hired Ms. Rutledge for a child support modification that she worked very hard on. She returned all phone calls and exceeded all of my expectations. Excellent job on that child support modification. I highly recommend this attorney.
