Former client

In my opinion, Madelin Diaz is incompetent and unethical. I hired her to handle my divorce. It was obvious that even though she billed me for reviewing my file and preparing for mediation, she actually did next to nothing to prepare. She had no plan going into the mediation, and basically was will...ing to take whatever the other side offered. Then when she prepared my settlement agreement, she inserted inconsistent and contradictory provisions, demonstrating that she is lazy, incompetent or both. Because of her screw-up in the agreement, I had to incur the cost of litigating those issues again (of course by then I hired a different lawyer). Madelin Diaz also does not seem to understand her ethical obligation to maintain her client's information in confidence, because she disclosed privileged information. Her legal advice was, in my opinion, worthless.

Best Decision EVER!!!!

I went back and forth on who to hire to handle my divorce. I was referred to Madelin by a friend who also hired Madelin for her divorce. I can honestly say Madelin was and continues to be amazing! Best decision I ever made to hire her to represent me! From the start Madelin was very honest and pr...ofessional and explained everything to me in detail. I put my trust and life in her hands and she made this whole process a lot easier. Anytime I had a question, I would either call the office or message her and she would always reply. I highly recommend her and her staff to help anyone who is going through a divorce, or any other family legal matter.

Savvy Attorney

Madelin is a very savvy and trustworthy attorney. She made me feel confident during my divorce. She and the entire office team was thorough, efficient and totally prepared. I was very satisfied that I received a fair divorce settlement. She was a real advocate.

Great Lawyer!

Madelin is a lawyer that does her due diligence and gets it done, she is extremely knowledgable. In my experience Madelin has always made time, to speak to you and keep you informed. Madelin and her team have been very responsive in emergencies. She tells you like it is( no hanky panky),which is som...ething I really appreciate as I have met some pretty deceiving lawyers If you are looking for a strong, confident and knowledgable lawyer. Madelin Diaz is your answer! I highly recommend her.

She is busy billing but nothing comes from it

She is very unprofessional and screams at the opposing side when we were losing. She promises things will go my way but in the end I have gotten nothing. Motion after motion, bill after bill, she has gotten me no child support, no alimony and shared custody only. She continues to bill me and cre...ates a work load but nothing ever comes from it.
