She’s a horrible human being cloaked in ‘care’

My first visit with her with my traumatized children after leaving my abusive ex-husband was spent listening to her finish up a call with someone setting up an ice cream date for her own children. Obviously, this was a few years ago, but I spent many years cleaning up the damage that her “representat...ion” of my kids did. She’s the worst kind of human being - a person who spends their existence gleaning adoration from what she does for others while being completely inept and borderline cruel to those who have to deal with her. She caused our family so much pain. I’m so grateful that my now adult boys are doing well, but it’s definitely despite her - she made things so much worse for them.

Beware

Mary Anne represents children but it shows in court that she also fights for the wrong party. Maryanne isn’t just about the children she literally puts kids in the hands of the wrong caregivers. She doesn’t just fight for children she fights to keep children with unfit grandparents and away from ver...y capable fathers. If you are a male and need a child’s attorney please look elsewhere because you aren’t going to get anywhere with this one.

Good Attorney, Intelligent, Heart In The Right Place

Mary Anne is an attorney for our young child. At first I was concerned about if a lawyer would treat a child properly in terms of court proceedings. After her first visit my daughter just wanted to go back and visit with 'the lady she just met' again. I'm not sure how things will fully pan out in ...our case, but so far she seems like a really terrific attorney, with the very best of intentions towards our child.

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.
