Katie Mathews Zipper

Retaining an attorney is a very difficult process when it involves finding the proper counsel to protect your children, your future financial stability and having peace with the outcome of the legal matters you are working through.

Katie Zipper Law was my choice given the legal battle I had before me. Unfortunately, I mistakenly chose this law firm. Particularly in regards to trusting Katie with large deposits meant for trial. Katie was trusted with a $5000 deposit meant for trial. Fortunately, my case did not need to go to trial, therefore the “deposit” meant for trial should have been refunded. Instead of holding the deposit for trial, as it was meant for, she chose to dwindle it was additional daily small amounts until there was almost nothing left. This deposit was on top of the beginning large deposit given to Katie to begin the case. Yes, Katie sent monthly statements of costs, however, these statements had a zero balance and nothing was needed to be paid. At one point, she asked that I make a payment of approximately $1800 and I did so. In the end, a small check of $400 was returned to me from the trial deposit.

Additional thoughts when it comes to the strength of this law firm. Lesa, Katie’s paralegal, was fabulous. She was kind informative and extremely helpful to my family and myself. In regards to Katie, she was kind but was not able to be aggressive and have the strength needed to better settle my case. In many instances, she just asked me what I wanted to do. I am not the attorney, I needed her counsel in order to make the best decisions. In retrospect, due to the lack of her strength and leadership, many times the best decision was not chosen. Additional, Katie attempted to withdraw from my case on 4 occasions without moving forward due to nervousness of the opposing counsel.

Katie Zipper Law does not posses the ability to properly inform you of where your money is going, have strong leadership skills and the true strength to take on your case and work hard for you.
