Pros
1
Excellent legal representation and expertise in custody cases, leading to favorable outcomes for clients
“Melissa is absolutely amazing! I was scared going into a custody case and she walked me through the entire process. Very professional. I walked out of the courthouse with 50/50 custody of my children. I HIGHLY recommend her!”
2
Dedicated and responsive attorney who goes above and beyond for her clients
“When my son's mother tried to alienate my child from me using every dirty tactic at her disposal, Melissa went above and beyond to ensure I won shared custody. Melissa was even there for my family when we needed it while vacationing on the other side of the world.”
3
Highly knowledgeable and effective in the courtroom, with a reputation for being a "pit bull"
“Melissa is a fantastic attorney. She has been with me my entire custody battle and divorce. I highly recommend her!”
Cons
1
Unprofessional and rude behavior towards clients in some cases
“I called this attorney cuz my son called her and she was rude obnoxious and totally unprofessional I would not recommend her to anybody she needs to check herself she needs to respect people when they call to ask questions she knew nothing I never in my life talk to an attorney with such an abusive attitude she was annoyed because we were asking questions”
2
Potential conflicts of interest due to personal relationships with other parties
“Rudas represented me in a criminal matter in which i discovered after the trial was over and right of appeal time had expired that she had a relationship with the alleged victim. It is no wonder that she insisted that this 'victim' not be called as a witness in the case. against my pleading.”
