Incredibly dedicated and did everything she promised

Mara was outstanding. She was super focused on doing everything she could to help me and my children. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

FIERCE, LOVING, KNOWS WHAT SHE'S DOING

Mara Dooskin went above and beyond for me. She gave me legal AND loving advice... since DAY 1 at the FREE CONSULTATION. She always followed up. On top of that she's FIERCE. The opposing parties lawyer was trying his best to intimidate, threaten, and talk down to her. She wasn't buying it. She remaine...d calm and calculated. She knew when to make her moves. Had an amazing turn out with my case! Mara you're seriously the best! If I ever need a lawyer, I know who to call. THANK YOU!!!!

Mara is there through a difficult process

Initially, I sought out and hired Mara for a DV case. She was very informative, patient, available and compassionate from the beginning. My case quickly turned into a divorce- and Mara guided me through every step. I always felt comfortable talking with Mara, and she answered all my questions. She al...ways returned my calls and emails quickly. Mara is a good listener and an excellent advocate. She understands what the client is looking for. She is very good at calming the situation down. This process is a very difficult one, but having an intelligent, attentive, compassionate attorney by your side can alleviate some of the stress and anxiety. Mara did that for me. Thanks, Mara!!

  • 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.
