Posted by anonymous | December 27, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Marriage & Prenuptials

Prenup

I recently retained Mr. Marnell to assist with a prenuptial agreement. He was patient in making sure I understood every detail of the agreement. He was honest, communicative, and made the process painless. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Posted by Thomas | May 30, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Fathers Divorce

Mr. Marnell represented our family in a complex divorce for my elderly father. He was professional, honest, communicative and highly effective throughout the entire process. He was a fierce advocate that had our best interests at heart from beginning to end. Highly recommend

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
