Gratitude

When evaluating an attorney to vigorously advocate on your behalf during a divorce and custody case you need to have an attorney experienced in family law and also have an intimate knowledge of judges and how they will adjudicate family law cases and lawyers on the other side of the case. Mary Socha... met and exceeded all of my expectations. Because of her, I was awarded full custody of my son and was the first man my particular judge ever awarded custody to. I owe a lot to Mary and forever in her debt. She is a wonderful, compassionate, effective and experienced attorney.

Ethical and Respected Attorney

I hired Attorney Socha on a recommendation from a Northampton attorney 13 years ago for help on child support. Mary has a no nonsense approach, is quick on legal knowledge, is honest, confident and compassionate. My case went quickly and smoothly without confusion or meaningless dialogue. With fait...h in Mary, I was able to nurture and take care of my son knowing I hired a competent attorney who would get the results we deserved. If a question or concern arose calling the office was always positive, knowledgeable and friendly. If Mary was unable to take calls, I would get a call back in a timely manner. Since then, I have hired Mary on three different occasions all with positive conclusions. Without hesitation I would recommend Attorney Mary Socha.
