As a female professional, I’ve worked with countless attorneys. As a spouse of a military officer, new to the area, I had limited insight in obtaining experienced Onslow Co representation which led me to Lana. I’ve never met a more unprofessional legal ‘professional’. She doesn’t introduce herself, she doesn’t advise options, and she does as LITTLE AS POSSIBLE, and makes absolutely no effort to assist in providing much of ANY NECESSARY information to be well-informed and prepared; something I contracted and was PAYING for! As others have stated, she is RUDE and lacks any sort of helpful demeanor. Don’t waste your time or your money: people that give her good reviews obviously don’t have much experience dealing with professional lawyers or representation.

As a local business professional, I am embarrassed for this woman! She isn’t there to WORK for you… she wants your money and then YOU DO THE WORK. She speaks down to you as if you are stupid and offers no resolution to questions! What a WASTE! If she’s not smarter than you, she’ll treat you like a NOTHING! Save your money for a true professional, not this rough around the edges RUDE downtown Jax native (go figure!).

Do NOT WASTE YOUR time or MONEY - find ‘professional’ representation. This woman is nothing more than RUDE. As a professional myself, I was completely DISGUSTED by her profound disrespect toward another, especially since I was paying her to merely do her JOB (which was a simple, basic case to begin with). After paying for services in full (and I did not object to paying for any additional time or other needs whatsoever) she then made me aware that “I” would be doing most all of HER WORK FOR HER and only spoke to me at all times as if I were completely ignorant. Anyone that reviews her well, is likely only herself!

This is my go-to / 911 Attorney in the area. She has a proven track record with my firm and all my prior referrals to her have been pleased with her work. This firm is very aggressive!!!

I hired Attorney Warlick to represent me with a child custody case and she is an amazing attorney, well worth the cost. I felt well prepared when walking into the court room and she ensured I had all the needed documentation to support my case. She was confident, but humble. I would recommend her 1000 times over again!!

She ran 35 mins late for our appt. Did not introduce herself or shake my hand. I waited for her to offer me a seat and she didn't. She looked over my form and cleaned her glasses. I talked for a few minutes when she cut me off and stood up. She was done. I called back a week later to ask another question and her secretary (who is just as rude but strangely wasn't rude to the two male Marines in ther office) told me I would have to pay another $250 consultation fee as I had failed to retain her. This was news to me. I was never told I had to do something special to retain her. I decided to find someone else because I felt like I was a criminal instead of a woman seeking a divorce.

As previously stated 5min rushed, rude, and gave no answers or information except her cost. Kept standing up basically trying to shew me out. After, being late to our scheduled appointment.

I read the other review on here and couldn't help but feel the need to leave my experience too, as it seems like a trend. I also paid the $250 to consult with Ms warlick regarding my divorce, and was left feeling very unsatisfied. It was a very fast 5 minute consult, and I almost couldn't believe that she actually charged $250. I wanted specific information about how to start proceedings in my particular situation. She simply told me I had to wait 1 year and ended the consult. Later, I visited another local attorney who told me that waivers can be signed and there was a lot more that could of been considered. She has a reputation for being a bulldog divorce attorney, and I'm sure it's well deserved. But, I cannot say that I would retain someone who did not seem to care in the slightest about my situation. I found her to be cold, off-handed, dismissive and arrogant.

Researched lawyers in area for upcoming divorce and obviously she is rated as one of the best in the area with a resume to match. Went in for a "consultation" and left needing a consultation. Didn't answer any of my questions. It became obvious upon first seeing her that this is going to be a one sided conversation and I'm not going to get any answers. Who doesn't introduce themselves to someone who just paid your electric bill? Come on Lana, I gave you $250 at least say hello and shake my hand. We sat down, I explained me case and all that came out of it was how much its going to cost going forward. I specifically asked 5 questions that I wrote down and didn't receive any answers. Just like a politician. Its all about her getting money. Consultation lasted 14 mins and I was out the door trying to find a way to justify, in my mind, the $250 I just spent. I guess now I know how much its going to cost to retain and utilize her for any future divorce proceedings. You're welcome. This meal is on me Lana.
