Maria Eugenia Pena

Why would a divorce lawyer grant 3 continuances, go on vacation twice and promise things and then doesn’t follow through . Her team is completely unorganized and kept loosing all my paperwork . She took my retainer , went on vacation and 6 months later I’m in the same position i was when i hired her ...initially .I am a woman that did not have many resources. She was very disrespectful towards me being a victim of Domestic Violence and offered horrible counsel that only helped my Ex husbands lawyer prepare a better case against me .

Mary was my second and fourth attorney during my divorce. My first attorney just wanted to squeeze money out of me and had no clue what to do. The third attorney that ended up being a bluff and did not pursue mine and my children's best interest, he left me in very bad situation and asked for money j...ust to talk to me after he screwed up. Mary is great! to say the least. She has been by my side on a vary contentious divorce against an attorney and an ex that only wanted to destroy me and or drive me crazy. She saved not only my Life but my sanity. She is an exceptional intelligent attorney whose's priority is the customer and not the money. She was recommended to me by a -former police officer- colleague after a domestic violence attack from my former husband. She is very well respected by Judges and Magistrates. An excellent attorney that is willing to address more than one thing at the time, if it saves you money. She will look out for your best interest and will advise you strategically on how to proceed. While with other attorneys you have the feeling they want to make a "profit" meaning charge you in excess of the service they provide (Service is less than Cost), Mary is fair, I never had the feeling of being charged for something she did not do (Service = or more than Costs). In sum "Mary is the attorney you want by your side in good times, but even more in hours of difficulty, not matter how bad" the situation or circumstance she will not abandon you.
