115. My Phone Conference With My Attorney, Curtis


My divorce attorney, Curtis Witters, had sent me an email on Monday.  He asked me to let him know the outcome of the bond hearing.  I emailed him back after the hearing explaining that Mark was not given bond and would not be released.  He responded back with this email:

I called Paula right after I got the email.  She set up our phone conference for today at 10 AM.

77. I Fired My Attorney Today & Hired A Great One


I know I haven't talked about my divorce attorney too much.  Most likely because I just don't like her.  Robin Roshkind bills for everything.  And, I mean everything.  

When Mark was in the middle of his tirade calling me he also called her.  She emailed me and asked me to send a recent picture of him to put downstairs at security.  I complied.  When I got her bill, she charged me for writing that email to me.  She charged me for responding to her email sending the picture to her.  She charged me for every phone call Mark made to her office.  She charged me for a "staff meeting" she had with her 2 employees about Mark.

I hired her at the end of January.  In just slightly under two months she has used up the entire $5,000 retainer.  And, the only thing she has actually done for me to date is file for my divorce.  Heck, I could have done that part myself and saved a ton of money.  There were other things too that I won't go into.    I had wanted to fire her for a long time, but because my friend Bonnie recommended her I kept thinking I needed to give her a chance.  She had recommended her after all.  Suffice to say I had just had it.
