Complaint Review: Melissa Weiss-Reiner

Melissa Weiss-Reiner is about as incompetent as a lawyer could be.  I hired Melissa to handle a divorce for me; a divorce that seemed quite straight forward.  But instead of handling the case in the most economical way, Melissa and her husband, Jim, who is not a lawyer, did everything to "milk" the case.  In fact, my husband was ready to sign off during preliminary discussions, but Jim, the non-lawyer, kept telling her to go for more money!

I eventually terminated my association with Melissa, et.al., and hired another attorney who went back to my original agreement with my now ex-husband. The attorney I hired to finalize my divorce is a former Maricopa County Judge. He said that Melissa is not reputable and there have been numerous complaints about her as well as her non-lawyer husband.

I have filed a complaint against Melissa Weiss-Reiner and her non-attorney husband with the Arizona Bar Association.
