Mary Frances Chicorelli

With a very complicated case i visited multiple law firms to help me with my situation. I came across Mary Chicorelli from Equal Access Legal Services. A very compassionate, knowledgeable and helpful professional. She handled everything wonderfully and made the whole process a lot less painful then i...t could have been. I really appreciate her efforts and hard work. She got me the only result i wanted to hear from the Judge. Thank you Mary!!!

I reached out for Mary's help in August 2016 due to harassment by a previous landlord who was trying to bully me into signing a release of liability. I had previously consulted with four different attorneys before I found Equal Access Legal Services. The first three charged more than I could afford a...nd the last attorney I called was distracted and condescending. A friend recommended Mary and, within the first few minutes of talking to her, I knew I'd found the right advocate for me. I began the call feeling frantic and overwhelmed, but ended it feeling calm and empowered. She was kind, patient, thorough, and clearly competent. She promptly sent me a simple agreement for services, drafted a clear and comprehensive settlement agreement and continued advising me on the process through completion. What felt particularly great is how quickly the dynamic with my previous landlord shifted when I hired Mary. The same adversary who had been threatening to take me to court on false allegations immediately dropped that threat and became respectful in her communications. Mary was able to resolve the matter without litigation within a month of that first phone call. I got the full settlement amount I requested, along with a release agreement protecting me from further threats. Finally, Mary's bill was surprisingly low. She offered an affordable rate based on my income, clearly discussed everything in advance, and kept her time to a minimum. I am so grateful for how quickly and capably she resolved this massive headache in my life. I plan to hire her for any legal matter that arises in the future and to recommend everyone I know do the same.
