We sought Ms Schraff out having heard about her expertise and reputation which were high. I made…read morethe arrangements on behalf of my elder father. Ms. Schraff, under the guise of ethical concerns, which I totally agreed with and understood, met privately with my father who is rather naive when it comes to these complicated matters of the times we live in. Rather than ASK him if he wanted to include me in their meeting, they met privately so that I could not be sure all concerns were addressed. I also was foolish and communicated with her prior to share some background of our family circumstances and my concerns...this seemed to color, imo, her attitude toward me, painting me as the potentially exploitative daughter and nothing could be further than that. During the course of things, as she prepared the routine will, and POA's etc, some questions came up that I sent to her via email. While she did provide some preliminary guidelines about fees that was signed off on, I was totally shocked to see bills come through for "Read, Review and Respond" to emails I had sent. It may be acceptable, but I found it unconscionable to be of so little assistance on behalf of a client. Once I got a bill I limited all communication with her. At the end of things I felt advance planning was not well explained or discussed, and she ever so sweetly offered to further meet with u$$$$. In fact, I called to clarify that the fee to review the papers and sign them was included before we would ever step foot in her office again...some of the work was in draft form, but others could be signed with a notary which we could do at no cost at AAA. It took, as I recall THREE DAYS and multiple calls on my part to get a response to that simple question until the last when I pointed out our appointment was the next day or that afternoon and I/we were not coming unless I/we had an answer. I warned my father not to ask any questions at all, to sign only, dare we incur additional fees. And in the end because of concerns about my mother who has dementia, we wound up with another certified attorney closer to home who was OUTSTANDING. Although, from a professional/peer standpoint it was clear she didn't want to pursue and recourse, she nearly immediately in her brief review of the work that had been done found a huge error that required us to pay AGAIN to have the same work /form done. Although it was as I recall several hundred hard-earned dollars, it didn't seem worth having to deal with Ms Schraff again. Her former partner and she recently parted ways resulting in the creation of a new firm which provided us the opportunity to have the work she had done transferred to our new attorney who is wonderful.

I had an appointment with Joseph at the Som Center office. Appointment was at 3pm. After 30 plus…read moreminutes of waiting I decided to cancel my appointment and get my consultation fee back. I didn't mind the wait as much but what did bother me was there was no acknowledgement from Joseph as he came out his office a few times. He didn't say hello or bother to apologize for the wait. The office receptionist did apologize as she was aware that it was a considerable amount of time after the scheduled appointment. I had to leave work for this appointment, plus pay a consultation fee and who know's how much more I would have had to pay for the services, which I was willing to do. But, time is money for me as well as it is for the services I was willing to pay for but first impressions speak volumes. To many Attorneys to choose from to just settle.
