Totally disrespectful front receptionist or secretary

I called today Maureen's office I left my name and number I did not get a callback hours went by I proceeded to call back I was informed that I was not allowed to talk to Marine instead of the secretary calling me back and let me know this information I was left in the dark it's a family lawyer they ...don't know each person situation especially when you haven't seen your child for weeks on end I do not recommend this office to no one if the front desk is operating this way imagine how the attorney is

Posted by Lisa | March 26, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Best family law attorney in Sarasota, hands down.

Maureen Chiofalo handled my stressful, difficult divorce from my abusive former spouse. Unlike many of her peers, Maureen completely understands the added anxiety and fear with regard to child custody and visitation when domestic violence is a factor. She was actually one of the co-authors of the saf...ety-focused parenting plan. Maureen is incredibly knowledgeable of the law, tough, smart as a whip -- and she brings a sense of calm to every meeting and court proceeding. Honestly, I could go on for days about how brilliant, kind, and wonderful she is. She shepherded my children and me through the most gut-wrenchingly stressful time of our lives, and I’m incredibly grateful for her talent, compassion, and skill. If you’re going through a divorce, child custody, or family law matter, hire her. There is no better attorney in Sarasota, period.
