A professional attorney

Honestly I am not satisfied with the my divorce settlement. But I know it is because the case itself, Mr. Theodore did a great job working with me, providing professional advice and answering questions promptly. I will recommend him if you need someone who knows what he is doing and cares about your ...case.

Posted by Anna | December 20, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Family

Best Lawyer Ever for my family/DV case

I can't say enough about Mario. I have been fighting a high conflict post divorce Domestic Violence against a minor child case. Mario is the epitome of professionalism, knowledge and caring. He must never sleep because he answers any question at all hours. I always knew our plan, never once did I que...stion what he did. He literally saved my child's life! I recommend him to anyone in a situation where you've exhausted all options and have no hope-he IS the hope, the answer, the attorney you need. He is so kind, understanding and extremely well versed, yet so humble. I would need 5 pages to describe my wonderful experience as his client. I've been fighting for my daughter's safety for 10 years. I've paid 3 times as much for a high profile lawyer, I tried representing myself (do not!) I will praise him for the rest of my life. I would even talk to anyone still unsure if he is right for you-he is. I put my daughter's life in his hands and as a mom there is nothing more important. I will use Mario for anything and everything I need. On a scale of 1-10 I rate him a 20plus! Stop searching! He is the attorney you need!

Remarkable

I have had the wonderful opportunity of working with this law firm and was very impressed with the level of professionalism, open communication and frequent updates about my case. Mario himself was very calm and easy to talk with allowing me time to express myself even at times when I became frust...rated. His expertise allowed me to be favored at the completion of my case.He delivered what he had promised and then some.....

Posted by Gail | January 26, 2011 | Child Custody

Integrity and wisdom

In a child custody case, the first instinct is to sling mud in the attempt to make the other parent look bad. Right from the start Mario made it clear that that was not how he practiced. He focused on the law. What a novel idea! He handled our case with integrity and wisdom! Ultimately, it was his t...horough knowledge of the law and his wisdom that won our case. He is the man that you want in your corner!!!

Posted by June Walker | September 07, 2012 | Foreclosure

You Decide!

Mario Theodore helped me with my Foreclosure and kept me up to date with everything. However, I had a second mortgage which turned into a judgement and when I sought help from him several times it was completely ignored until it turned into a wage garnishment and then I was charged $1500. I decline...d because I felt if he was more knowledgeable about the law he would have advised me earlier so I could avoid the wage garnishment and he wouldn't have charged me so much when I was already paid him a retainer and a monthly fee to defend my foreclosure. I believe he is a nice person but would I recommend him as an attorney, knowledgeable about the law? You decide.

Ms. Walker came to my firm as a referral from someone at a litigation support company. On many occasions I informed Ms. Walker that she retained us solely for the first mortgage and that I would need information and a new retainer regarding assistance with the second mortgage. She did inform us of the wage garnishment and I advised her that I would be more than happy to help but that it was a totally different issue than what we were retained for and what we would charge to try and resolve her second matter. She was also instructed on many occasions that it appeared the litigation support firm which she had a relationship with stated they had her file and would refer her to a different attorney. There was nothing more that we could have done other than what we did. We never ignore anyone.
