Helped when no one else could.

Mrs. Casey helped me with a very Sticky legal situation. She nearly had my charges dropped on one case when I caught a much more serious one. I mistakenly hired another attorney for my second case. After paying $10k to retain a trial attorney, and $5k once bound over to the gran Jury, He dropped me... as a client when I couldn’t come up with another $10k for Trial. Being held without bond, I didn’t have resources to come up with another $10k. Mrs. Casey came to see me in Jail while I was desperately looking for another attorney before trial. She told me she’d gotten the charges Id payed $15k for representation on dropped and got me a Plea deal on the other. I ended up with the best case scenario(2 years) when I’d been prepared for the worst(25-Life). All without discussing further payment. She also got great results for my Cousin in a Custody case. I can’t recommend her enough!

Excellent attorney

Margaret was my mediator for my divorce. She was very easy to communicate with, understood family law and was able to mediate in a very difficult, high conflict divorce. The mediation took 14 hours, but she was on top of things throughout the day. I was very impressed with her skill and determination.... I would highly recommend her as an attorney and/or a mediator. From an attorney side, I have seen her as the attorney of a very good friend of mine for over a year, again during a very high conflict divorce. Specifically one where the other side did not tell the entire truth, led attorneys, counselor and others to believe things that were not sure. She understood the system, including how judges would rule while advising her client in a clear, knowledgeable way that benefited her in a most positive way. I have watched several attorneys in the last year and a half and would say be far that Margaret is one of the best attorneys. She cares about her clients and makes the best decisions while being caring, considerate, ethical and economical. She is the best!
