In helping our clients through this difficult period in their lives, we always work to protect their rights and interests and those of their children.
The fees and expenses charged by an attorney should be reasonable from an objective point of view. The fees should be tied to specific services rendered, time invested, and level of expertise.
Provided a client pays a contingent fee to a lawyer only if the lawyer handles the case successfully, lawyers and clients use this arrangement only in cases where money is being claimed, most often in cases involving personal injury or worker's compensation.In a contingency arrangement the lawyer agrees to accept a fixed percentage of the recovery, which is the amount finally paid to the client.

Myth: If you live with someone for seven years you have a common law marriage? There is no magic number of years which creates a common law marriage. A common law marriage is created when a man and woman declare to one another that from a certain moment on, they are husband and wife. There must be a present sense intent to be husband and wife, not a promise that some day we will be "married for real".

I will do you a huge favor, Avoid this law firm they don't care about you or your situation. I couldn't understand why I can't get a return call or at least a email. After three weeks and several calls to the office I was assured several times by the receptionist they were hard at work on my case. Straight up lie. Upon my final call expressing my disappointment I was assured that Alexandra was going to work on my case that weekend and they would call me next week. I heard that several times just a different person in their office. They do not respect or care about their clients. Do yourself a favor

I needed a local attorney to help me through my divorce. Ms. Mcintosh was rude, horribly unorganized, non responsive and slow. The revolving door in her front office staff should be an indication to run. It took over 2+ years to finalize the divorce which cost me not only in unnecessary legal fees, but also loss in the settlement. I finally switched to another attorney to finalize the settlement. She also charged higher rates than our contract outlined which I am having to dispute with her in arbitration. I would highly recommend researching other attorneys in the area.

I am satisfied with how my case was handled by Alexandra McIntosh. I came to her four years ago with a very tough case. I was in a poor mental state and had just ended a very long term volatile marriage. I wasn't much help to my case and honestly didn't want to deal with it. Alexandra NEVER made me feel bad or crazy for how I was feeling. In fact she believed in me and guided me to take action with the police department to protect myself which I did and today I am protected! She also guided me to seek other measures outside her office which I did and am grateful today for that! In a divorce their

Going to Alexandra to assist with my divorce was a huge mistake. She made a very difficult time even more difficult. I have never been treated so poorly, especially by someone who was charging me an arm and a leg! Anytime I called, she and her assistant made it clear they were very busy and did not have time for my questions. She would charge me for an hour to sit in her office while she was on the phone with other clients and working on other cases. When I mentioned that I was getting 20 minutes of her time instead of 60 she would get MEAN! She actually yelled at me on the phone & hung up. She
