Review of Clover Barrett and Associates,...

I have been dealing with Clover Barrett since 2008...

I have been dealing with Clover Barrett since 2008. My first probate case with her in 2012 took her 1 year to handle so I thought it would not be a problem to come back to her firm with another probate case. I returned in 2015 with a new probate matter. In the over 3 years she had my case there were continuous delays, my questions, and concerns or phone calls were never addressed or returned in a prompt manner. I was rarely kept informed as to the status of my matters. Whenever I was lucky enough to get someone to answer the phone at the firm Ms. Barrett was either out of the country or I was told they would take a message and Ms. Barrett would return my call. I would eventually receive a call back maybe a few weeks later or maybe within a month. I was not allowed to be entitled to sufficient information to allow me to participate meaningfully in the development of my probate case. I would caution anyone wanting to work with this firm to not do it. Stay away from this firm.

Rebuttal to Ms. Barett's response: 11/1/2018
Dear Ms. Barett
I doubt you are sorry for your less than stellar performance in handling my case since I complained repeatedly for the past 3 years and you did nothing to remedy it. Unfortunately the extensive delay in the second estate matter was largely due to more your ineptness than a lost will which by the way it took three years to realize that and I find that excuse hard to believe as well. Also the go to excuse of your office going through an reorganization and staff reduction was used on at least two other separate occasions it is starting to get old now. At Clover Barett and Associates, you are passionate about ignoring your clients, not responding back in a timely manner and not providing effective legal representation for your clients. You can't even spell my name correctly especially after having worked with me since 2008. I was not satisfied with your work at all. I wasted three years of my precious time dealing with this firm. I'd advise anyone thinking to hire this firm to BEWARE! PROCEED WITH CAUTION! STAY AWAY!!!!
