1 /5 Sarah Marie: If you’re looking for an attorney who respects your privacy, communicates clearly, and operates with integrity—look elsewhere.
Not only does this attorney charge 2.5x the average rate in the area, but the office is poorly managed and careless with sensitive client information.
The most serious issue I experienced: my entire mental health and medical records were mistakenly faxed to the opposing party—a party the court had already ruled would not have access to those records. Despite that, the documents were sent anyway. It took twelve hours for the office to even realize the mistake, and to this day, I have never received confirmation that my records were retrieved or destroyed.
They initially blamed the facility, but after further investigation, it was clear the error originated from her office—a mistake that could have easily been avoided with proper procedures and attention to detail. There was no accountability, no real apology, and no effort to take responsibility.
This was not just a clerical error—it was a complete failure in client confidentiality and professional duty. I’ve taken time to reflect on this and spoken to other attorneys to ensure I wasn’t reacting emotionally, and everyone agrees: this kind of breach is indefensible.
I have submitted a formal complaint with the AGC but in the meantime, the least I can do is share my experience to help prevent this type of misconduct from happening to another vulnerable client.
Do not trust this attorney with your case or your personal information. There are plenty of professionals who charge fairly and operate with the care and ethics every client deserves.
