Best representation on my post judgment matter

Absolutely the best lawyer around. We recently had a hearing in court, and she was powerful and an incredible advocate. I felt so well protected. She was always available to take my calls, and her staff was simply fantastic. Highly recommend I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Had I known better, would not have used her.

After being in an abusive marriage with mental and physical abuse over 16 years, I was recommended to use Ms. Marino as a tough advocate. Unfortunately, my ex-husband's attorney was tougher, and I lost financially. She also did not give me proper advice about my marital home. She told me I had to lea...ve, or the sheriff would remove me in 60 days. I consulted for free with another attorney and he said that was not true. I paid highly to find a rental with the 8 dogs my ex did not want, even though he called them his 'beloved dogs'. Would not use her again.

Best of the best

Excellent lawyer. Handled a very complex divorce for me and brought in a forensic accountant to value my husbands business. She got me the most incredible settlement. Did weekly check ins to make sure I was ok. Great staff.

Excellent attorney in orange ct

I had the privilege of meeting with and hiring Debra B Marino early this year. Not only is she an amazing attorney but she took the time to comfort me and explain all the nuances that I might encounter during this difficult time and during my trial. MY outcome was amazing and I have since recommen...ded her to several other people, some of whom have hired her. She made an awful period of my life bearable and enabled me to start over again with a good financial outcome. She is top notch.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
