To me the negligence seems that she okayed you to leave but then when you called she didn't pick up the phone. That seems like one of veey dew cercomstance that no matter what she was doing. Even if she was in session with someone balling their eyes out ahe ahould have pick up the damn phone call. That ring with OPs caller ID on it would be as much of a sign of an emergency to me as a blaring fire alarm. And then I believe she called more than once like ?????? WTF? It seems negligent to me. If she let her go home than it seems pretty dumb not to respond to her calls on a basic common sense level. Tell the other client that you're sorry but there's an emergency -
