A Lawyer that knows her stuff!

I hired Marie for my daughter who had 3 dui's; a drug felony; and many driving on suspensions on her record. She had a court appointed attorney headed to the Penitentiary. I must say Ms. Washington was a mircale worker. If it were not for Marie, my daughter would still be in jail. I would like to ...add..my daughter is now doing great! Thanks Marie, you are the best!

A Lawyer you can trust to look out for your best interests!!!

Marie took my divorce case after I had a previous attorney to settle my divorce and look out for my best interest. I must say that it was not easy for her to see what I had entered into with my ex-husband as it was clearly a one-sided divorce settlement, I am a very nice person. I also trusted my p...revious attorney to consult and advise me in a very emotional and exhausting time of my life. After realizing that my settlement was to my detriment, I contacted Marie's office to have her review my pending case, as I was being dragged into court once again. She squared her shoulders and spoke the truth to me while knowing that it was what it was. She advised me and I had complete confidence from day 1 of our visit that she was the gal for me. She represented me with compassion, integrity, and determination to see her client through. I am writing this review because I, without a doubt, would highly recommend Miss Marie to anyone seeking a people's attorney. She will see you through.

M. E. Washington - A Trusted Friend and Consumate Professional

I have worked with Ms. Washington on several occasions, consulting her for advice, guidance and preparation of legal documents. In one instance, the consultation involved an issue of a personal nature, while the others focused on the drafting of wills, including specific inheritance concerns, and a ...comprehensive discussion of associated issues. In all cases, Ms. Washington has been thoroughly prepared to assist me in making informed decisions and developing strategies that clearly reflect her interest in, and dedication to, her clients' best interests. Ms. Washington is a pleasure to work with. She is a trustworthy professional and a true friend.

Great Experience!

I went to Ms. Washington to have a will package prepared and was thoroughly impressed with the level of service she provided. She immediately put me at ease during our meeting, took the time to explain everything, and answered all of my questions. The entire experience was great, and I wouldn't hesit...ate to use her again for any of my legal needs.

Ms. Washington

Ms. Washington has always given me personal service on a host of legal issues including will and trust questions that I have been confronted with in recent years. Having an attorney that takes the time to give me service beyond a cookie cutter legal prospective was and is very important to me.
