I wish I had paid attention to the poor reviews Autumn had received, my experience matched their descriptions perfectly. Autumn never paid attention to my case. When I called to speak with her, I was told by her staff that Autumn was too busy with her personal life to handle my case but that she could maybe speak with me in a few week’s time. I found out later that I was billed for all of those calls. No value-added to my case, just a waste of my time on the phone trying to contact the lawyer I’d paid a very expensive retainer to. She and her staff did very little work in my case, but some how managed to use up the entire retainer and billed for even more. I’d had direct contact with Autumn maybe 3 or 4 times. I was left speaking to an incompetent aid who usually said that she did not have the answers to my questions, I’d have to speak with Autumn, but oh, sorry, Autumn was not available for two more weeks. Of course I paid for all of these calls. I was even billed for emails I sent and the replies they sent back did not answer the questions I’d asked. I was misinformed on several occasions about proceedings, they missed filing deadlines and were caught off-guard and unprepared. Highly unprofessional and money-hungry. I ended up changing counsel when I realised that the only progress they knew how to make in my case was sending invoices.
You know you have a great attorney when you go to court and you don't have to say a word. My ex filed 2 emergency motions against me to get sole custody of my daughter. Mrs Blackledge fought for my rights not only as a father but more important as a parent. She understands the importance of both parents being of importance in the childs life. I highly recommend Autumn Blackledge to represent you. The staff is very caring and professional as well
