This has been the worst experience I’ve ever had with an attorney. Despite paying Brittany Dixon $23,000 for her representation in my divorce case, her lack of professionalism, negligence, and unethical behavior caused me significant financial and emotional harm.
Key Issues with Her Representation:
1. Lack of Communication
• Ms. Dixon rarely responded to my calls, texts, or emails, leaving me in the dark during critical moments of my case.
• On the morning of a court hearing, she sent a text at 4:57 a.m. saying, “Don’t panic, you will see attached,” followed by weeks of ignored messages leading up to that day. This last-minute outreach was not only unprofessional but also demonstrated a complete disregard for her responsibilities to me as her client.
2. Negligence
• Over the duration of my case, she failed to file a single motion on my behalf—something that is fundamental for an attorney handling a high-stakes divorce.
• Despite knowing the judge had a history of bias and unfair rulings, she failed to take any necessary actions to protect my rights or challenge the court’s decisions.
3. Unpreparedness
• At my final hearing, she arrived 30 minutes late and completely unprepared. Her incompetence directly resulted in me losing nearly everything to my ex-wife, including assets and custody agreements that could have been negotiated differently with proper representation.
• It became painfully obvious that Ms. Dixon was a rookie when she had the audacity to ask me to hire another attorney to assist her, claiming my case was too much for her to handle.
4. Unethical Behavior
• After the court awarded me $85,000, Ms. Dixon falsely claimed I owed her an additional $15,000. Without my consent, she placed a claim on my escrow funds, collected the money, and left me struggling to retrieve the remaining balance.
• She also failed to contest a garnishment on these funds, further delaying my ability to access what was legally mine.
• Adding insult to injury, it often felt as though Ms. Dixon was working with my ex-wife and her attorney rather than representing my interests.
Additional Concerns
Ms. Dixon’s behavior throughout my case made it clear that she prioritized her convenience over my well-being. She offered no strategic guidance, no advocacy, and no effort to deliver on the services I paid for. Her negligence and lack of professionalism have had devastating consequences for me financially and emotionally.
Final Thoughts
I cannot overstate how damaging this experience has been. Ms. Dixon’s lack of competence, ethical breaches, and disregard for her client’s needs make her unfit to represent anyone in a court of law.
I will be filing a lawsuit against her and a formal complaint with the Bar Association to ensure her unethical actions are addressed. To anyone seeking a competent, reliable, and trustworthy attorney—look elsewhere. Do not make the same mistake I did.
