Divorce attorney recommendation

Marie and her staff were supportive and professional during my divorce proceedings. They provided excellent advice and completed filing my divorce on time. Marie's fixed price for an uncontested divorce filing convinced me to try her services. Her personal support and professional demeanor convinc...ed me that I made the right decision. I highly recommend her legal services.

Great Attorney Advocate for the truth

My case was difficult and involved varying degrees of interpretation and incorrect legal codes, which carried the potential to stifle professional and educational growth. Although, I did not always remain composed and collected, Marie remained positive and determined to produce a successful outcome. ...It was a blessing to have such a knowledgeable and determined attorney, who garnered a winning outcome for this case. I would definitely recommend Marie and her staff (very professional) to anyone reading this post.

Competent, Hardworking and Honest

If you are looking for a very competent, hardworking and honest lawyer you need Marie by your side. From business and civil litigation to family law and estate planning. Most recently Marie assisted me with putting the best plan in place for myself and my family. Losing a parent a vital player to ...my family plan, many changes needed to occur. Marie was able to assist with this documentation and make recommendations that work for the remainder of my life and the life of my children. Although I already had in place most of the documentation needed, one life event can change everything. As an individual looked upon as the center of the universe by my family members, I needed to insure that if anything happened to me not only my wishes were delivered, but the wishes of those passed. Not to mention that the minor family members would be taken care of as well. During times of change you as an individual may be clouded by emotion, but having Marie by your side rest assured that your legal matters will be met.

Family Matters

Ms. Washington has provided legal advice and well as represented a family member of mine regarding minor children. Ms. Washington provide my family with some legal advice regarding an individual who was living in my mother's home. We decided as a family for my mother's well being that we wanted thi...s individual removed from her home. As we provided Ms. Washington with the specifics she advised us of our mother's rights and well as the individual's who was living in my mother's residence. I am happy to say that Ms. Washington provided us with some valuable legal advise and how to hand the matter as well as advising us that this matter could very well end up in court which would drag out for several months. This did not happen and the individual left after without us having us going to court. Ms. Washington also was legal council to a family member of mine and the case involved minor children. There was quite a bit of documentation that I assisted my family member in pulling together for Ms. Washington's review before going to court. She maintained contact with my family member each an every time they had to provide updated information as well as the numerous times before going to court. This case was postponed several times before it finally ended about a year later. It ended well with my family member. Ms. Washington is very professional and courteous and provides her clients with the best representation possible.
