Michele Ellerin took a $500 retainer from me and wrote 1 letter to my ex based on information I had provided her including letters I had previously written to my ex. In my opinion, her letter was a copy and paste job of the letters I had already written. About 2 months later, I receive a statement from her office for over $1,140 plus interest. Her office told me that the retainer had been used up, so this amount was in addition to the $500. The interest charge was for a previous bill her office claims they mailed to me, but I never received. So, essentially, she charged me $1,640+ to write one letter to my ex. During this time, when I called her because a dispute with my ex was reaching a critical juncture, she was not available and I ended up resolving the dispute on my own, which was not exactly in my favor. As a courtesy to me, her office should have informed me right away I had used up the retainer. It is my opinion this is a poor way to do business.

Nobody really wins in a divorce , with the exception of the lawyers = they get paid either way .I must say that she was usually fair , very expensive , professional in court , missed a couple of items , was a good communicator in court , always had someone get back to me if I had a question , tenacious in the courtroom , and was quite supportive .I will also say that there were a number of times that she and her staff made errors that cost me , as their time was my money ! She did make an effort to work things out when we were not in agreement and made some billing adjustments . As lawyers go my guess is that she is better than most even though my divorce took years and cost lots of money . Advice = Her staff does almost all of the paperwork and research so pay attention to the details !
