I hired this attorney highly recommended through a friend; and I am so happy to have found her ! She immediately began working on our case and got the ball rolling to help our family with a very complicated case when we were losing hope...I can't say enough good things about her ! She's the absolute best ! I've used other attorneys in the past; but have NEVER worked with one this professional or good !
Maria is an extraordinary mediator. She is kind, patient, listens and I am amazed at how well informed she was about our case when we began the mediation process. Truly a relief to see that there are still people that work in the legal community that actually enjoy their work and truly care about law and justice. If you are looking for a fair, intelligent and just mediator, look no further. Maria is your best choice.
Maria has been Board Certified in Marital and Family Law by the Florida Bar since 1997. She is also a fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (Florida Chapter), an organization comprised of the top family lawyers in the country. Maria served as Chair of the Family Law Section of the Florida Bar in 2015-2016. She is experienced and a highly regarded trial attorney and is also a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Law Mediator. She has limited her practice to marital and family law and guardianship matters since her admission to the bar 30 years ago.
