Cons
1
Potential for poor communication and handoffs to other attorneys
“I received an email from Melissa stating that she would be handing my case over to another attorney in her office.... I spoke with the other attorney and did not in any way feel that attorney was the one for my case.”
2
Questionable billing practices for consultation and other services
“I randomly get a bill, in the mail from Melissa's law office- billing me for a review of the legal documents (isn't that covered in a consultation) - also for my interview with the other attorney that Melissa OFFERED me to do..... so- this firm wants me to pay 500$ for ..... nothing.”
