Knowledgable and Experienced

Mary took into consideration every detail of my divorce situation and even brought to light important things that would have been overlooked without having an very experienced attorney like her on your side. She applied specific recommendations that ultimately ensured not only my interests were resp...resented, but also the interests of all parties involved, especially my children - which was very important to me. This was my first and only divorce and having never navigated the process and I could not have selected a more empathetic, understanding, and experienced attorney who also brought to the table other professional and experienced members of her firm and other members within the community. I would highly recommended Mary to anyone who is having to go through the terrible process of divorce, you could not ask for a more trusted resource in your time of trouble.

She saved my family!

Ms. McDaniel knew just what to do. I was in a custody mess. She stepped in and quickly took every step necessary to keep my family fron falling apart. She was financially reasonable and treated me like I was her top prioroty. She kept me informed every step of the way. She is the only one I will ever... trust to handle my legal needs. Hands down the best attorney ever!

Awesome

She called me the next morning herself. She gave me hope and made me feel so much better about my circumstances. Mary was really kind and made me feel that she really cared about what I have been going through for the last 5 years. I know I am in great hands. And I feel relieved and less stress and I... haven't cried since I talked to her personally. Thank you for caring and taking my case. You are the only lawyer I have talked to that made me feel that you truly care and want to help me . Thank you so much Mary

Relocation request

Mary is an excellent example of a true professional. She is honest, straightforward, and has integrity. She was well prepared for my case and helped me with my nerves by making sure I was prepared as well. I will recommend her in the future.
