Dear Ms***:
When I read your complaint letter to Revdex.com(Revdex.com) considering the above
referenced *** I realized you were very unhappy with our representation and although we
have spent many more hours on your case than we charged you, I am returning your Four
Hundred Eighty-Dollar ($480.00) Retainer Fee, since you were so unhappy with our work
Since we had already refunded the Fifty-Six Dollar ($56.00) filing fee and now delivered
to you the retainer fee of Four Hundred Eighty Dollars ($480.00), you will have received all the
monies that have been paid into this office
I know you are not happy with our procedure in handling your case; however, I felt the
better thing to do was to wait until the Virginia's Department of Professional and Occupational
Regulations(DPOR) finished their investigation
I encourage you to seek an attorney on this ***; however, I do believe it would be
better to obtain an attorney closer to your home or better yet, an attorney from Patrick County
Further, if you fail to file your claim for any injuries or damages within two(2) years from
the time of the damage or injuries, your claims will be forever lost, since you must file your
claim for injuries or damages within two(2) years of the incidenceTherefore, I urge you to seek
another attorney's advice on this ***
Good luck to you and I wish you the very best
Sincerely,
Shirley BJamison

I have reviewed the response offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
Most all of the information Mrs. Jamison has said in her reply to me , is absolutely not true. Not only have I been taken advantage of by a contractor, I now find myself being taken advantage of, from a lawyer, who said they were going to help me back in Feb.2014. I NEVER increased the Amount of damages over the past 6 mos. The lawyer asked me what amount of costs did contractor owe me. I gave her list of items. That amount has never changed. Lawyer never informed me 25,000 cap in Patrick District Court. I had to call Patrick County Court myself, to get this information, and I relayed this information to the lawyers office employees. Like I said, Lawyer nor her staff has called me in 6 mos. except approximately 2 times by [redacted] ,office staff. I have been the one calling and trying to get answers as to why case has not been filed. As for July 3 meeting at lawyers office, I showed up unannounced. The lawyer nor her staff have ever called to give me information or to set up an appointment with lawyer,during the 6 months I have been waiting. I have had to call constantly and complain.
Appointment was offered for Aug. 28, after I called and complained about why the warrant I had paid for on July 7,2014 has not been filed. No appointment was made or offered when I came by office to pick up refund of 56.00, that I paid on July 7, 2014 to file warrant in debt . I was told it would be filed July 7 week, and served on July 14. 4 weeks later, nothing had been done. I then asked for a refund. Arrangement did not suit customer??? What arrangement? Lawyer had made arrangement to file warrant, and did not do so, promised to go forward with my case and instead I was IGNORED and delays continued.
After 6 months of no action by lawyer, any customer would be frustrated. I have contacted DPOR several times for the past 6 months and was told by supervisor that filing warrant in debt would be better way for me to go. The lawyer informed me that she needed to talk to supervisor and investigator, The lawyer never called them. THE lawyer NEVER suggested to me to file warrant in debt. I called lawyers office and Told STAFF, the Lawyer could file WARRANT in Debt. The supervisor DPOR informed me that the lawyer did not need to call him or get any information or investigation information from DPOR, in order to proceed with a warrant in debt for me, she can file warrant without information etc. The lawyer has known about filing warrant in debt for 3 mos. but refused to file this warrant in debt, for some unknown reason.
It was NEVER AGREED or DECIDED by ME, that It would be better for DPOR to complete investigation before office went forward. That was lawyers decision to let DPOR finish investigation, and not go forward, it was not my decision or agreement. The lawyer never called DPOR supervisor. One letter was sent to DPOR by lawyer , and was charged 60.00 for that letter. Lawyer never was informed by DPOR that she could file warrant in debt. I called DPOR and was given this information. I relayed that information to the Lawyers staff. I NEVER asked Lawyer to Help Me Out. I ASKED lawyer if she was going to go forward with my case, if not then I need my refund of 480.00!!!!!! Lawyer replied that was spent on research. No research given to me.
I ABSOLUTELY did not ASK Lawyer to take a chance on me . I asked if she was going to do anything. If she was not going to go forward with my case, then I needed a full refund. She said they had done research. What research? I never received that information. I asked lawyer what did she want? I asked her, money? She said yes. I need 1,000.00 to file in Patrick County Court. I agreed, but did not have it up front. I agreed to give 1,000 if she lost my case. I asked her if she could add her fee into the amount being filed? She said she maybe able to do that. After 6 months, what arrangement has lawyer or staff made to help me get this warrant in debt filed?? Nothing! I have tried to get answers but there is always delays or ignored by lawyer, and staff.
By trusting people, I find myself once again being taken advantage of. All about money. I request a full refund from lawyer or she needs to file the warrant in debt on Sept. 1, 2014 . The warrant has to be filed by Sept. 1, 2014, in order to set a court date for Sept. 19, 2014. Only one day a month, to see civil cases. I need lawyer and staff to finish this job. If not, give me a full refund of 480.00 and I will file warrant with another lawyer. I feel now I have wasted my time, energy, and money, if lawyer is not going to go forward with filing.

Please let this responsive letter serve as confirmation, the customer in this matter did
retain me to represent her against a Patrick County Contractor which included working with the
Virginia's Department of Professional and Occupational Regulations(DPOR). After many calls
and emails to the...
DPOR, and hours of research and review of the department's regulations and
specific review of the customer's complaint against the contractor, it was decided and agreed that
it would be better to let the DPOR complete its investigation, before this office went forward
with any charges, or any suit.
Shortly after the DPOR had completed forwarding information to this office on the matter, the customer was informed by the DPOR that a Warrant in Debt could be filed against the
Contractor. The customer and I did meet in my office on or around July 3rd, 2014 to discuss the
Warrant In Debt. I explained to the customer that my fee for going to Patrick County to try a
Warrant In Debt in the Patrick County General District Court would be One Thousand Dollars
($1.000.00). The Customer said she did not have the money and asked me to "take a chance on
her." I therefore agreed to take my fee either out of proceeds if we won the case or as her to pay
me directly if we did not win the case. However, I informed the customer a Motion for
Judgement may be needed as the customer kept increasing to the amount of her damages as we
worked along on the case.
Initially, it appeared a Warrant In Debt could be filed in the General District Court in
Patrick County; however. upon adding up the damage with the addition of my attorney fees and
cost it would raise the amount of the claim to exceed the cap of Twenty-Five Thousand
Dollars($25,000.00) for General District Court. My legal assistant attempted to explain to the
customer how the suit would proceed from this point. I indicated to the customer the complaint
for damages in the construction of her home had amounted to a larger sum of money then we had
originally discussed and that I would need to draft a Complaint/Motion for Judgement in the
Circuit Court of Patrick County. This would take longer to complete. At that time we had
realized we must take the case to Circuit Court because of the amount for which the customer
wished to file suit. I did ask my staff to inform the customer I would be out most of the month of
August on vacation, but we did attempt to set an appointment for the customer as soon as I would
return from vacation, at which appointment I would have requested the Customer to meet and to
meticulously review the details of her damage claim and draft a Complaint/Motion for
Judgement to be filed in the Patrick County Circuit Court. Obviously, this arrangement did not
suit the customer.
The amount of damages in a Civil Suit controls whether you file a Warrant In Debt in
General District Court, or if the damages are greater, then you must proceed through the Circuit
Court. The pleadings, services, and scheduling in General District Court(also known as "Small
Claims Court") are much less numerous and cumbersome then those of Circuit Court.
Apparently, the customer wishes to be heard in Court sooner than I can get her case heard
in Patrick County Circuit Court. Therefore, since it is clear to me the customer does not wish to
wait any longer on this matter, I would hope she would seek other counsel who perhaps can get
this matter filed in August, since I will be out this month for vacation.
I thank you for your review and consideration of my information in this matter. If you
have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact my office.
Thank you again.
Sincerely,
Shirley B. Jamison

I am not satisfied with Mrs. Jamison response. I will be seeking further council, as she did not follow through with her obligation to me, as promised in Feb. 2014. As for spending hours on my case, that is not true. My case was a simple one, file the warrant in district or circuit court. Lawyer did not have to wait on state response to my case, to file a warrant. Hopefully, this will be a reminder to those who are seeking council, go elsewhere. Mrs. Jamison wasted 7 months of my time, and ignored me during those 7 months. I don't recommend her to anyone. Evidently, Mrs. Jamison does not care about getting justice for her clients.

Review: I hired Mrs. Jamison in Feb. 2014 to handle case for me against a Patrick Co.contractor. I paid 480.00 upfront for her to research and send letters to contractor, and state dpor. I was asked to pay 500.00 that day, and few weeks later I received an invoice for $60.00 charge for sending letter to dpor I did not pay that extra charge, as it was not included in my charges. After I left office in Feb.2014 Mrs. Jamison office did not contact me for 4 months, so I began to call office. . I feel I am being taken advantage of once again. When I called the office, I got the run around with double talk . Now 6 months later nothing has moved forward or changed. I went to the office several times to try and get information on my case, as I was not happy with way things were not progressing forward. No one was helping me. I asked Mrs. Jamison and staff 3 months ago to file warrant in debt, as state told me to do. There was always an excuse for the reason why. I went to office around July 3, 2014 and asked Mrs. Jamison about case,and to file warrant in debt, and once again, double talk. She said she needed 1,000.00 to go forward in Patrick Co. I told her I needed my refund if she was not going forward with my case. The 1,000 could be added to my case filing amount. I needed to know what she was going to do if anything. She agreed to file warrant if I agreed to pay her 1,000.00 if she lost case. I agreed to that. She said to pay 56.00 that day or July 7,014, as I did. I was also told that it would be filed within a week, and served on July 14, 2014. Mrs. Jamison never filed the warrant in either courts ,circuit or district. Her office called Patrick co.around July 10, to ask how much was district court gap amount . As of today July 25, 2015, 3 weeks since I paid for warrant in debt to be filed, nothing has been done with my case. Once again I feel screwed by another person in the business world. I spoke to [redacted] in office on Wed. July 23, and she told me there was a long form for Mrs. Jamison to fill out for circuit court, and file attorney motion, and that would take time to type up and dictate information onto form. Once again, I feel taken advantage of and getting run around. State told me that attorney can file warrant in debt without any delays. I am constantly getting delays on delays and delays from her office. [redacted] said Mrs. Jamison would call me. Mrs. Jamison has never called or contacted me in 6 months regarding my case. I am very dissatisfied and disappointed in Mrs. Jamison and her staff inability to keep me informed of what they are going to do for my case , as they promised they would do in Feb. 2-14. I have once again picked the wrong person to represent me.On July 23, 2014 [redacted] offered to make appointment for Aug. 26 to discuss my case again with Mrs. Jamison, as MRs. Jamison is going to be on vacation in month of August, so I want be able to go to court in August. Now my case is into Sept. or October. This is how client gets treated, when you pay money up front for a small civil case.Desired Settlement: Give me full refund of 480.00 plus 56.00 for warrant or file the warrant by July 28, 2014. Finish the job.

Dear Ms. [redacted]:
When I read your complaint letter to Revdex.com(Revdex.com) considering the above
referenced [redacted] I realized you were very unhappy with our representation and although we
have spent many more hours on your case than we charged you, I am returning your Four
Hundred Eighty-Dollar ($480.00) Retainer Fee, since you were so unhappy with our work.
Since we had already refunded the Fifty-Six Dollar ($56.00) filing fee and now delivered
to you the retainer fee of Four Hundred Eighty Dollars ($480.00), you will have received all the
monies that have been paid into this office.
I know you are not happy with our procedure in handling your case; however, I felt the
better thing to do was to wait until the Virginia's Department of Professional and Occupational
Regulations(DPOR) finished their investigation.
I encourage you to seek an attorney on this [redacted]; however, I do believe it would be
