Wanzer Edwards, PC

The team at Wanzer Edwards was an invaluable resource in my divorce. Elisabeth Edwards is a seasoned attorney who knows the law and how to navigate a difficult opposing team. Her team research backed up my case and gave me the courage to stand my ground against my ex. Her support during mediation was considerable. My ex called her "abrasive". Good for her.

Holly Wanzer and Kelly Smith, the paralegal, represented me in a custody case in 2018-2019. The case was resolved and closed, and I have no complaints.

My ex recently re-opened the case and because Holly Wanzer was still technically my lawyer, she was served papers. However, I only found out about the case because the opposing counsel emailed a continuance that was filed a month later.
In that time, I never received an email or a phone call about the case or the summons. Because of this, I lost one whole month of valuable time to prepare for my case.

When I called, I found out that they emailed me the day after the initial summons on an old inactive email address. They never once called to inform me after I gave no response. On top of that, I found out that Holly Wanzer had removed herself as my lawyer in the meantime for the case, again without calling or making a second attempt to reach me.

To recap, Holly wanzer and her team, received my summons, emailed me, and then did not reach out to me via phone ONCE to ensure that I, (their client), was informed of the case. On top of that, Holly Wanzer removed herself from the docket without my knowledge and without calling me to check. So I was still a client of Holly's but she never called me once to update me on my case, even after she received no email response. If you are a client of Holly's, you might be one old email address from the same situation.

I am no lawyer, but it seems like Holly and her team did the absolute bare minimum and did not care about me or my sons interest to call me and check on me. Now, I am scrambling to find representation, I am a month behind on responding to the Interrogatories from my ex, and I am in serious jeopardy of being at the mercy of my ex and her lawyer (who were the ones to actually email me about the case).

Is this how Holly Wanzer and team treats their clients after they have already paid and completed their cases? Do they not feel like they have a responsibility to reach out to their clients? This lack of care and lack of respect for their clients could come back to seriously harm myself and my case.

Holly Wanzer should call me ASAP and fix this issue, or I may be forced to file a complaint through the necessary channels, as well as inform all my family and friends how unprofessional this firm is.

Chris was awesome to work with. He is a compassionate and caring person. I highly recommend him for a family lawyer.
