She was very professional. She was very thorough and took her time (but she did not lengthen the meeting just to charge more like lawyers do. ) Would highly recommend her to help with any legal paperwork.

Nightmare
C.L. Bailey, J.D. Legal Consulting Services's reply
It is something terrible to be called a nightmare by an abusive client that had gone so far as to watch online porn in my presence. Sir, I suggest you rethink your words or we shall enter the legal arena in the form of a Civil Suit based on sexual harassment. It can happen and it will.
