Mary Therese Maran

Mary was extremely responsive in the first few days. Once she received her first payment she was very hard to get in touch with. Mary missed court, and would go to the prison for "attorney visits" and then say she was doing a welfare check when the client got down to see her. She "negotiated" a deal ...that was ten years more than the "deal" she promised she could get. She did not perform any casework as far as having a psych evaluation completed, review of the discovery was not done, no character letters/statements were sought, no ballistics, nothing! She took nothing the client said into consideration, was very uninformative, and never told the client what the charges were that were being plead out to until the plea was entered, which she told him he had to take the deal or he was looking at even more time. She had no time for the case and it showed. I would not recommend her for any criminal case.

Mary saved my life back in 2008. At the time I came to my prelim bearing with a public defender and she was arguing a case with extreme passion. She was young but talanted. I seen potential in her and said she is an advocate for her clients. Needles to say i should’ve been in jail for 15-20 years for... a attempted murder and agg assault for a shooting into somebody’s house. But she got all the more serious charges dropped to a simple assault no felonious charges were filed and i walked away with 6 months house arrest. She is a saint and i will love her forever. Then i got arrested again for a drug charge while still on probation for the prior charge and she worked her magic again and got me community service. Idk how she does it but she is an amazing attorney at law. Thank you Mary!

When i was a young kid i was an idiot and on drugs and did very stupid stuff. One night i got high as a kite decided to go pay some girl to have sex with me on July 11 2008 and the girl took my money ran. The police said that i shot the girl’s house 8 times. My name is Karl A. At time i didn’t have a... lawyer i seen mary fighting another case at the 1st of my Preliminary hearings and instantly fell in love with her combative vigor and hate for the prosecution and said i have to have her as my lawyer. I was charged with attempted murder and several other serious charges and was facing 7 1/2 - 15 yrs in jail. Mary got all the charges dropped to a misdemeanor assault charge and i only did 6 months house arrest with 5 yrs probation. I will only use her to fight my criminal cases.

We basically paid her money for nothing. She never seemed interest or concerned about the case we started noticing that soon after. I feel like she took money from us and didn't really care about the case or wanted to fight for us to bring her client home or get any type of better result for the cas...e . Bad communication for the most part she don't always get back to you . I think she has her picks on what cases are going to get her attention. She also says she going to things and it's never done that's another thing I learned about her. She says one thing at the begining before you pay her and then say something else after shes paid. I do believe she a great Lawyer but not for us. She also was trying to charge us up when infact I spoke with other Top Lawyers who gave a way better fair fee/price for the case overall . We have decided to go with another Lawyer now because we feel as though Ms. Maran was about money and not helping us out with case at all. Please be very careful when giving any Lawyer your money and always ask for a price in whole before giving any payments to Her or any Lawyer.

Mary handled all my criminal matters from the smallest violations to heavy cases I'd rather not mention. But all I can say is she worked so hard for me and my family. And the proof? I'm home with my loved ones and not somewhere I was "supposed" to be. She is more than just my lawyer, she is my friend... and I appreciate her outstanding business and friendship. Everyone I refer to Mary gets the outcome they hope for (seriously). If you're looking to hire an amazing criminal defense attorney, look no further, call Mary Maran.
