I used her several years ago. She was definitely worth the Money. I was losing in court with the previous lawyer but she got me full custody and a peace of mind.

The worst! She got nothing accomplished. Often threw fits, and charged a fortune. Also told me lots of lies. Do not recommend!

She will lie, cheat, and steel, from you. She's unprofessional, and condescending, and put me down by the I talk. She charged me over $6k and didn't not do what paid her for! I had an uncontested divorce, she tried make more of it than it was. My ex husband's lawyer, ended up finishing, everything up. She she be disbarred!

Rita was my attorney for several years and she got me through a very hard, very frightening time of my life. I’ve just scrolled through her reviews to find my ex giving her a one star rating. He was NOT her client and LOST to her. This was a child support and custody case in which Rita fought for everything she knew my kids needed, and I wanted. She is firm with a huge heart. She gives it to you straight and does not back down to the opposing council. I’d put every ounce of trust I had in her if I ever had to be in the court room again. She is absolutely who you’d want on your side fighting for you! Her paralegal, Lera, was also amazing to work with. I can’t say enough about this dynamic duo!!

She will make sure you are charged for an appointment even though she is late or does it over the phone. And will talk about her personal life to fill the hour plus more. She barely did anything for me, had to drop her and didn’t want to pay a dime to her but I had no choice. DO NOT USE HER!

Response from owner

I am sorry and surprised to hear that you had these complaints about me as I heard nothing but gratitude and respect from you during my representation. The legal representation agreement we both signed states: “If, during the course of my representation, you become dissatisfied with my services or have questions about your bill (which shall be sent to you, itemized, every month), I urge you to call or make an appointment to discuss your concerns, at no charge to you.” Further, please note that the same legal representation agreement clearly states that any phone calls made on your behalf will be billed. I send a detailed monthly bill so that any discrepancies or concerns can be addressed. Yet, you did not voice any complaints until years later after you finally paid the last bill.

I am a client of Rita Ros-Planas and was appalled to read a very negative and offensive review by a man named Gerard Michaels. It was easy to track him down on Facebook and there it was evident that he had been a client at the Firm for Men, which was my ex husband's law firm. We were there for a long stressful day of settlement negotiations. The staff was polite but my husband's lawyer, Ryan Thum was as nasty and rude as he could be throughout the day. I don't remember anyone else in the law office that day. I was with my lawyer in a small conference room and we met twice with the other side in a bigger conference room. All in private. My attorney behaved professionally at all times and caring towards me. How in the world this Gerard Michaels can think he can speak for me is crazy. I would never have gotten through this nasty divorce without her at my side. Rita is an excellent attorney and does not deserve to be attacked in this way.

Response from owner

Thank you so much for your response to Mr. Michaels' review. I appreciate your kind words and vote of confidence.

Ms. Ros-Planas is highly unprofessional with clients and opposing counsel alike. An absolute disgrace to the profession. To clarify, I was not a client of this attorney, but instead witnessed VERY unprofessional actions in another attorney's office where she was for a meeting.

Ms. Ros-Planas handled my personal injury case. She was very professional, answered all of my questions and got me great results. She was my advocate and looked out for me. I highly recommend Ms. Ros-Planas and will use her for all of my legal needs in the future.

My experience as a client with Rita Ros-Planas has been nothing but profound and admirable. She displayed dedication and the utmost professionalism and tanasity in regards to my case. I highly recommend anyone that currently has legal issues to utilize her expertise and knowledge of the law. Her staff members compliment her work ethic and provided me with additional information and support when I had questions or concerns. Without a doubt, I know other lawyers would have taken advantage of my ignorance of state law, but Rita Ros-Planas was totally transparent with me from the very beginning which I know is very rare to find. I'm very appreciative and have great respect for her diligence, professionalism and representation of my interests.

I love her! She is fair but firm. She is totally professional. She gives it to you straight, she does not sugar coat things. I've worked with her for over 2 years and she has worked HARD for me. I've got a tough case and she wins.

Thank you so much for your review. I appreciate your putting your trust a in our hands.

This attorney is the most unprofessional person I have ever met. Not only will she treat you like you are less than she is, she will make rude and unnecessary comments the entire time you are in her presence. I don't know how she is able to run a business considering the extreme lack of professionalism shown by her. I would give her 0 stars if google allowed that.

Response from owner

This is the most disrespectful and lack of professionalism lawyer that anyone can encounter on the face of the earth. I would not recomend this lawyer to my worst enemy. To say that..... to none of the Spanish speaking community. She took my ex-wife for a ride and made her spend tons of money. For nothing. By presenting lies and false accusations. And the worst is that she will try to push her client after she has lost. To spend more money. With false promisses.In other words the only people she can impress with her horrible attitude is her clients. Ask around. What people think about her before hiring her.Is a general consensus. Do your research. Don't fall for this type of representation.
