She is patient, kind, understanding and will fight for you!
When I went to jail on a Battery charge I was scared and just wanted someone to listen to my side. Marcia did all that and more! Not only did she fight for me but she gave me my life back and my career. She was very patient and understanding. She was always available and stood by my side until the end! I was so Lucky to have her as my lawyer! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She will fight hard for you! Thanks again Marcia for everything!

Very Successful Criminal Lawyer
We had a very stressful time since March of this year because a domestic violence case against our son. As we must of us know some women take advantage of the Law to use it to her favor no matter if they need to lie or damaged the life of innocent men. We are very grateful with God because found Mrs Marcia Giordano who took care of this case getting a WIN WIN in front of a jury in Miami Courthouse . The judge also congratulated her because her professional way to handle this case in the recently trial ( October 2021) She took less than 30 days to close this case successfully, after we switched attorney due to the previous lawyer was getting a wrong way to handle this case . We highly recommend her because she is also very reportable and always response emails and text messages and let you feel confortable with the way she handles your case .

Excellent Representation, Honest and Harworking
I sought Marcia's assistance regarding a security deposit that the landlord was unwilling to return or even cooperate. Although we live in Texas and the property and Marcia are in Florida, I had no issues in getting a hold of Marcia whenever I needed to. She was extremely professional and worked expeditiously to make sure the security deposit was returned without any further delays. Within 6-8 weeks of hiring her, we had received a full refund. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney. You will not be disappointed, if you hire her.

Ms.
Ms. Hansen is a very competent attorney. I had a very unusual situation where I needed to get a squatter out of a house that I was Power of Attorney on. She was very knowledgeable about the process and the results were faster than normal. I had heard of cases that took up to three months to get people evicted but, because of her staying on top of the case, it took approximately six weeks. She was also quick to respond to my phone calls and emails. I would highly recommend her.

Top-Class Representation
I could not have asked for a better Attorney to take on my family’s case. A family friend referred me to The Hansen Law Firm. I was contacted promptly, and had a sit down with Marcia the next day. She heard all my concerns and clearly informed me of all available options towards the case. I couldn’t hesitate to have her representation right away. I knew she cared and was going to do her best to get a resolution, and she certainly did! The case was settled right away and thanks to Attorney Marcia Hansen my family was reunited. Thank you so much! We’re extremely grateful for your help & services. I highly recommend a consultation with Ms. Hansen.

Excellence
"I was having issues with a tenant that did not want to leave my property and I had hired a lawyer that was doing a very poor job. A friend referred me to Marcia and I'm so thankful she was willing to help me in this case. The first time we spoke on the phone I explained to her my frustration that I had with a tenant and she made me feel so good and relieved because she was so confident we were going to win the case. She was available for all my questions and concerns and she even got the tenant out of my house in less than two weeks. I'm so thankful I was able to find such a smart and hard-working attorney"

Courteous
I spoke to Mrs Hansen via telephone and found her to be patient and had a genuine interest in helping. She took the time to listen to my issues/concerns after which she made certain recommendations/ suggestions. She was very informative as well.
Unfortunately the matter was not worth perusing. I'd definitely recommend her to any client in need of her legal council.
