Posted by John | July 13, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Thank you Maria!!!!

I hired Maria after having several other attorneys handle my divorce. As a highly educated person myself, the first thing I noticed about Maria when I consulted with her was how intelligent she is. As my case progressed through mediation and eventually trial, I saw first hand how intelligent and qu...ick she was. There was nothing that got past her. This was important to me due to the complexity of the issues in my divorce. My divorce trial lasted two days and she was top notch. I very highly recommend Maria.

Military Divorce

I hired Ms. Henderson to handle my divorce after 30 years of marriage. Although we didnt have any minor children like many other reviewers mentioned, we did have quite a bit of assets we had accumulated including a military pension, IRAs, an annuity and several properties. The first time we went to m...ediation, my spouse wanted way more than her fair share. After Ms. Henderson meticulously went through the finances to show a fair and reasonable distribution of the assets, we were able to resolve the case without a trial. Ms. Henderson did a great job of identifying and dividing the assets without getting caught in my ex and her attorney's drama. I would recommend her to others in similar circumstances.

very happy with my representation

knew from my first visit that I had made the right decision choosing Maria Henderson. She has created such a compatent, efficient and caring team that no matter what happens you're in safe hands. Maria embodies professionalism, and genuine compassion which empowered me to stay strong during my divor...ce. When dealing with a divorce there are so many emotions that course through a person; leaving them feeling vulnerable. Maria has the ability to help you push through that and strengthen you. . As you're going through this experience you always dream of your final day to actually have my reality touch my dream was an incredible feeling. I will be forever grateful for all of the hard work,time and dedication to my case. I am glad I hired Maria and her firm to help me with my divorce and would use her again if I ever find myself needing a divorce lawyer

Divorce with child

I'm a young father dealing with a really difficult soon to be ex wife that would go to any length to make my life completely down and take everything from me. Maria Henderson never fails me and always keeps me calm... she's 100000000%%% real and honest!!!!! And for what's she's worth she's very reaso...nable!!!! If you're looking for a super super super smart attorney,and someone who will fight for your rights, it's her... as a father I can say I got 50/50 for my son and it's all thanks to Maria and God.

Highly recommended!!

I found Maria Henderson on AVVO and retained her to handle my difficult divorce. Maria is highly versed in family law and impressive to watch in the court room. Maria and her paralegal are kind and compassionate. I would not have made it through my divorce without their support.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
