Most Horrible experience

I hired Marilyn Colon to represent me in a divorce case, gave a $5,000 retainer fee. I saw the lawyer once on the first consult. After that only paralegal and another lawyer. They will call me or email me for questions that they already had the answer with them just to charge me more because the more... calls and emails they do the more they charge you. At the end she end up being late on filing the divorce because there was always an excuse to why they haven't file the divorce. My ex-husband took advantage of that and his lawyer was faster and file the divorce in another state. not only I wasted my money and time on this lawyer, now I was left out in the cold. I had to travel many times to the other state and hire a new lawyer over there. It has been a terrible experience that I don't even want to think about it. hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Divorce Counseling

Marilyn Colon provided me all the necessary information and counseling to make sound decisions at a very difficult time in my life. Her knowledge and experience served me well.

Amazing divorce lawyer with years of experience

I was married for thirty years to a man that was deceptive, passive-aggressive, and had addiction issues. When my children grew up, I decided to leave him even though he had complete control of the finances and everything was in his name. Attorney Colon and her team made a very difficult situation mu...ch easier to deal with. Not only they provided an outstanding legal guidance but also very sound financial advice. They fought extremely hard to make sure that I got an equitable distribution of the assets and that everything was divided in a way that was fair. The divorce was not easy, mainly because my husband refused to cooperate, but Mrs. Colon proved to be exceptionally skilled and experienced in the handling of my individual case. I recommend attorney Colon and her team without hesitation! I will be forever grateful!

Divorce Attorney

My divorce was handled professionally by Marilyn Colon. She worked towards obtaining an amicable resolution, despite the uncooperative nature of my ex-husband. She demonstrated knowledge of the law with specific regard to family law as it pertained to child support, alimony & time-sharing. She facili...tated 2 meditations & many hearings during my divorce process. she has offered me legal counsel & support for over a year now & even after my divorce was finalized she has continued to work on my behalf to help me fight for what is owed to me.
