I hired Milly and I really regret doing so. The process was literally drawn out for years with her constantly not returning calls, and mailing things to old addresses and then claiming we never got back to her. it felt like once she realized we wouldn't be a huge payout for her we lost any and all priority with her as a client. We were made to feel like a nuisance if we asked questions and even in closing the case she didn't show up to closing and I had to sign with a very rude paralegal and then when I tried to call to speak to Millie to have things explained better to me and have my questions answered since she WAS NOT THERE at the time to answer them, the paralegal was very rude and would not set me up an appointment and claimed she couldn't promise anything and maybe shed be there around this time and what exactly did I need to speak to her about. I was astonished by the boldness and rudeness when i was paying for the service and the right to ask my questions to my attorney not her secretary. She completely blew off my concerns and just told me to tell her a date to come in and pick up my check and we would be done. When i went to pick up the checks Millie was also not there, the woman was again rude and did not greet me, and I had to take her word for it that my bills and doctors would be paid and covered and request 3 times for the print out of the money distribution which she insisted she had given me and she had not. I basically just ended up giving up on pursuing my case since I was sick of it being drawn out so long and just didn't want it hovering over me anymore and I had a really disheartening experience with both Millie ( who seemed very professional and courteous in her office at first) as well as ALL of her staff. Before she moved locations and had a different woman as her help that woman stood there complaining to me about how much she wished she didn't have to work here as she was copying information for me which should have been a sign to get out I suppose. I do understand you can't always know what your staff is saying and also that these things take time and some of the time issues were on our side as well however I was left with such a bad taste in my mouth from feeling really dismissed and out of the loop the entire time that I would never recommend her to anyone else.
Did not inform me of anything that was going on. Would never answer the phone. Blamed everything on her paralegal. Was more on the respondents side than mine, when I was the one paying her. Talked a good line in her office but when it came down to it would try to persuade in mediation to give up all rights. You would be better off as a self litigant. She didn't even use the proper language in her motions. Absolute waste of time and money and made me loose even more time with my child. Don't just walk away, RUN!
