Maria is a superb attorney. My experience after hiring her was nothing but exceptional. I own several businesses with valuations in the millions of dollars. I consulted with several other attorneys, but Maria was the only one that understood my concerns and had a game plan to ensure my assets were n...ot compromised. She recognized and advised me that we needed expert witnesses, including a CPA and a business valuation expert. She also recognized the need for each of my businesses to have a business attorney representing those entities. She coordinated and worked closely with these individuals that were called as witnesses in my divorce trial. Maria was phenomenal in court - quick, highly intelligent, and aggressive. Nothing got past her. In trial, she used each of the expert witnesses to testify on my behalf. For lack of a better word, she was like an orchestra conductor ensuring each experts testimony was direct and to the point. There was little the attorney on the other side could do, since each of our witnesses testimony was backed by hard evidence. Maria quite frankly saved me millions of dollars and protected not only my interests, but my businesses. As an opinionated, aggressive business owner I am not used to having others tell me how and what I needed to do. However, I am so grateful I listened to her. If you are a high asset individual going through a divorce, then Maria is your attorney. My advice to any one like me is to swallow your pride and listen to her, she knows what she is doing.
