Avila- Maureen Attorney in Sarasota, FL

g e posted a comment

Worst lawyer ever! I made the mistake of hiring her for my divorce. Her up front charge was $5,000. She begged and pleaded the court to be the first case of the day, because she was leaving on vacation. She showed up an hour late because she was out partying all night with all of my money and her alarm didn't go off. The judge was livid and nearly threw out my case. She falsely charged for phone conversations we never had, or charged for full hour long calls when we only spoke for seconds or minutes. She never had a clue what she was doing or what was happening on my case because she was always texting or talking to her party girl friends on her cell. She blew through my money in a matter of days and had the nerve to bill me for another $2,500 she said I owed her, plus another $2,500 to continue representing me. I told her to bite me and that if I received any further bills or notices that I would see HER in court. Never heard from the that slimy, lying crook again! Do NOT use this sad excuse for a lawyer, EVER!!!!
