Marcy Alicia Hanks

Marriage is hard. Divorce is even harder. I was married for 7 years. It was suppose to be forever, and my world came crashing down. A friend recommended Marcy Hanks and her team as my lawyer. During the consultation, I was so nervous. Nervous to tell her the things that should only stay intimate with...in a marriage. She assured me that I could tell her everything and that she was there to support me. They always say that the only one’s that win in a divorce are the lawyers. I disagree with this statement whole heartedly. One point during the divorce Marcy called me, not as my lawyer but as a Christian friend, she had been reading messages that my spouse and I were sending each other back and forth. She wanted to make sure that we did everything in our power to save this marriage. I assured her that we had: marriage counseling, Re-Engage, Small groups, and an intensive marriage retreat. We were two broken people who truly loved each other to the best of our ability. We were just slowly dancing in a burning room. Marcy and her team were there for me every step of the way. Making sure that my girls and I were taken care of financially and emotionally. To work for someone while they are going through the most painful time in their lives and to do it with so much love and compassion, that is what makes a good lawyer great. Thank you Marcy. Thank you to your entire team.

I hired Marcy to represent and fight for me during an ugly custody battle. It was my first time ever dealing with the court system and was extremely nervous and scared to death that I wouldn’t receive all the outcomes that I hoped for. Marcy went above and beyond to call me down, talk me through eve...ry document, laid out a clear plan of action, and communicated every detail of every thing that took place during the months before it was settled. I would highly recommend her to anybody seeking the absolute best lawyer around! She is beyond a fantastic lawyer but better yet an incredible person. She fought for my rights, as a single mother who was never married to my child’s father, and never let me lose faith or hope!! She will forever be in our hearts for everything she did for my family!!

Words cannot express how wonderful Marcy Hanks is as an attorney. She and her staff are the definition of professionalism. I always felt confident knowing I had such competent professionals handling my case. Marcy represented me when I was seeking full custody of my three children. Being a man, I... was extremely worried that I would not have a chance, and my children would not be heard. My first consultation with Marcy quickly dispelled any worries that I had. Marcy provided me a detailed and strategic legal plan during our first meeting. From that day, she executed that plan to perfection. She was relentless and meticulous! The correspondence I received during this lengthy case was excellent. Marcy and her staff always kept me well informed. I honestly felt like I was communicating with family because it was so genuine and frequent. Marcy's confidence during this stressful and emotional time was exactly what I needed. It inspired me and kept me going! Her courtroom preparation and demeanor was excellent. It was very comforting to know I had the best attorney in the room, which was evident by me gaining full physical custody as the outcome! If you're looking for an extremely intelligent, charismatic, and strategic attorney, look no further. Marcy is the best there is. A fantastic person through and through. She helped change me and my children's lives forever.

Unfortunately, I have been in several litigations with my son's father since 2001. Marcy has been my attorney from 2003 to current for two modifications and a motion for contempt and I would highly recommend her to anyone going through family, divorce, legitimation, or custody litigation. *Kn...owledge- in all three of my cases, it was clear she was more knowledgeable, than opposing counsel, of the law and the DETAILS of the case. I always felt like we had the ‘upper hand’ because she was well versed on the details, thus catching inconsistent testimony or false statements during the trials. As stressful as these situations were, her retention and attention to detail was very big deal to me. *Personal Conscience - this is one quality I have always appreciated about Marcy. The advice she has given me, I feel is the same she would give a family member. She knows the system, courts, judges well enough to know what is in your favor and what is not and she will never lead you astray for the sake of making money. My experience is that she is a very honest and trustworthy attorney. * Professionalism – She is a highly respected trial attorney and it is evident in the level of respect she garners from other attorneys, judges, etc… I’ve always appreciated her court demeanor and respect towards the court, judges, opposing counsel and party. She is a very organized, detailed, submits documents in a timely manner. She always responded to me in a timely manner. At times, when she was tied up on court or for personal matters, her staff was prompt in letting me know when she would be able to get back to me and always she did. *Professional Trail Lawyer – Best said, I would rather be sitting beside Marcy at court than sitting across from her. She is a bulldog – my first thought seeing her cross examine someone for the first time. Litigation and trials were stressful to me regardless of how strong I thought my case was. Part of my 'calming down' process was to remind myself of the person representing me - Marcy Hanks. Even when up against a team of attorneys in 2014, Marcy was the standout during litigation and I went home very pleased with the outcome.
