Pros
1
Compassionate and understanding attorney who listens to clients and their unique situations
“She actually met me on a weekend to understand my situation! Her calm demeanor, ethical nature, excellent ear and ability to take a very complex problem and simplify it made me much easier to understand what path makes most sense, resulting in a calmer state.”
2
Skilled and knowledgeable in family law, consistently coming up with effective legal strategies
“She knows the law and procedures so well that she has consistently come up with great, effective options/assets/cards to play at every turn, more than any other attorney I've even heard of.”
3
Passionate about helping clients and fighting for their best interests
“Melissa is the best! She is a partner in the fight against the unjust, she is in the battle with you and for you.”
Cons
1
Potential issues with communication and responsiveness, with some clients feeling neglected
“Given I had made some personal errors during the time of the matter but I at no time had no idea what her legal strategy was, I just saw that after a couple months, her and her paralegals had burned through the retainer extremely fast with really no results, no communication on what was going on.”
2
Concerns about high legal fees and billing practices
“when I emailed questions I was charged left and right in some cases 15min for an email that took 5 min to write. I still have no idea what was discussed with opposing counsel, I've only heard bits and pieces from my ex.”
