| - THE OTHER REVIEW ABOUT THIS ATTORNEY SEEMS CORRECT BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE. STAY AWAY! SHE SEEMS SHADY!
I recently obtained a judgement against a contractor and was looking for a collection attorney so I setup a consultation with Nadin Cutter. I was googling collection attorneys and her rating stood out and she was right down the street from my house. I phoned her office and her assistant set something up for the following Monday but made it "tentative" as she wasn't "100% positive the attorney would be there that day and time" which seemed odd to me since I was given an appointment time and date. I was told I would be called back to confirm the appointment so she just put me on the calender. No phone call was ever returned. So I phoned back the office and made an inquiry and find out if I could get my appointment. This time I spoke to her assitant Melvin who apologized and couldn't explain why I never recieved a phone call. He then scheduled me to come in the coming Friday which I did and I was there about 10 minutes prior to my appointment time. When I came into the office the first thing I noticed is there were kids running around everywhere. Seemed like a day care center. I was taken to a consultation room, and after waiting about 15 minutes past my appointment, I was told she was on the phone and would be with me as soon as possible. About 23 mintues after my appointment, she finally came in and started to listen to my cases. I explained my judgement against the contractor and also a collection case from my previous tenants that bailed on me. My questions about my tenants ate up most of my free 10 minute consultation so when I asked her about my contractor case she promptly and politely I needed to pay her $275/hr rate which I agreed to pay for a half hour. I don't mind paying for consultation since I believe nothing is free in this world but I have to point out my time isn't worthless either and the missed and late appointments maybe should have counted for something. I didn't say anything but I thought that was a little rude given she was 23 minutes late. Anyway, as I was telling her about my judgement and situation, she kept going off track advertising her other services. I mentioned I had a house, she tried to sell me on getting her to set up an LLC for it. She then asked if I had a car and I said I did and she asked if it was in my name. I'm like, "WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT I'M PAYING FOR YOU TO ADVISE ME ON?" I would say more than half of my consultation was her advertising to me all her other services she does and this is after I had another attorney whom I consider a friend to handle these things. On top of that, she said "I don't know" or "I'm not sure" on a lot of key points about the collection. At about 22 (1 less minute than she was late) minutes into my paid for 1/2 hour I just left even though I had more questions as I could tell this was a waste of time. Upon asking for a receipt, I was given a hand written receipt on an Adams note. VERY CHEAP. The only good thing I could say is they let me change to CC once I realized I wrote the check on my personal account. The next day I decide I would possibly retain since I was in a rush to garnish this guy's wages and didn't have time to shop around. I already had the judgment so I thought, "How hard can it be? I thought her consultation was a joke but since I have the judgement already all the work is pretty much done." There was one question which I emailed her about that would get cleared up. No response. I sent more emails to get a more legitimate receipt on Excel or something (which I was told I WOULD DEFINITALY GET since they charge a fee for using credit cards that was not reflected on my other "receipt") and still no answer days later after I was assured it would be emailed prompty after my CC was charged. Then they take almost a week to charge my credit card after I reiterated how much I needed that receipt as I had just given up on this firm and needed it for my accountant. On top of that the question I was refering too dealt specifically about attorney's fees in the event she couldn't collect. I get the feeling this was deliberatly avoided just to remain ambiguous. I always felt like it was, "Just sign here and I'll take care of everything." I was quoted prices but couldn't get those prices in writing. IT SEEMS VERY STRANGE I CAN'T GET A VERY SIMPLE QUESTION ANSWERED ABOUT HER FEE WHEN SHE CANNOT COLLECT ON THE JUDGEMENT FOR WHATEVER REASON. She DEFINATELY was getting paid; not so sure about me.
