Compete Confidence

Marvin was incredible. He was always there for me when things got stressful and could always handle the most difficult situations. There were times at night, on the weekends, on holidays, when things would present themselves and he was always there to settle me down and give me complete confidence th...at he had it under control. Plus, he understands that the two parties have to live with each other (if there are kids involved) for years to come so he's not like the old-school guys who only care about scorching as much earth as possible as long as they make as much money as they can. He is very tough when he needs to be but knows that collaboration is always the best route. He is considered one of the best in his profession for a reason.

Responsive and Attentive

Based upon multiple strong recommendations I hired Mr. Solomiany for a critical matter of Family Law. I was very surprised at how responsive he was to my frequent telephone and eMail questions. He personally answered my concerns almost instantly. At all times I felt that his focus was on me and my n...eeds.

SUPERB representation in HAGUE CONVENTION case

I am a citizen of Germany who found himself in a desolate situation of having his child wrongfully removed from. Residing in Germany, I was in need of representation in a court of law the United States, and luckily I found Marvin and his staff consisting of Lindsay Dodson, Bruni Langford, and Doriet ...Fisher, who all took over my case in very professional and passionate way for the cause to return my child to Germany. Given their experience, Marvin and his associates were able to take away my fears whenever things seemed hopeless, and infused me with their optimism. When considering the cross-atlantic relation-/partnership, Marvin and his asdociates always kept the line of communication open in every shape and form, providing excellent and concise guidance. Their empathy for my situation and marvelous and engagement was very encouraging for me personally and ultimately led to the successful return of my child to Germany, which I will always be most grateful for. I cannot thank you enough Marvin, Lindsay, Bruni, and Doriet. God bless.

NOT recommended

I wish I had done it pro se and NOT used Marvin! I was charged a lot of money for something that a mediocre law school student can do. I could get a better result with legalzoom. lol this attorney is a joke. Do not gamble with you life like I did, and do not waste your money. You can do better by hir...ing a law school student, paralegal or one of the online legal services for a fraction of the cost and better quality services.
