Marguerite A Maggs

The consultation was fantastic. She was attentive and very informative. Once she received the 10k retainer, she was impossible to get in touch with. At $450.00 an hour I had to beg to get her to talk with me. She did not follow through with scheduled phone appointments, with no excuse. Made deals wit...h the apposing attorney without my consent, bragged about how much business she had, extremely condescending. She would call back after hours, and if I did not answer, then there was no way to get back in touch with her . She literally has no extension. Her inability to do her job, became very frustrating, so at times leading me to be short with her staff, (which I apologize for) but she won’t take any responsibility for her actions. There are other reviews that elude to the fact that she does not care for men. Her entire office is all women. It is my opinion that she is Bias towards women. She wrote “one” letter and charged me $1900.00 before I finally fired her.

After realizing that my divorce was inevitable I was told to 'interview' a few lawyers before signing a retainer, which I did but was not comfortable with any of the ones I found. A friend recommended Marguerite Maggs and within moments of sitting with her I felt completely at ease. She explained e...verything that would happen and to what to expect. I found that Marguerite not only had incredible knowledge of law, but a true gift of relating to people. My very complicated divorce ended up being relatively easy and I feel that all of the partners and staff at Amdur, Maggs and Shor personally helped me and I am very thankful! ....and Marguerite told me that I would probably get remarried, given my age, but the only reason I would ever remarry would be if she could divorce me again!
