Guardianship and ultimately Adoption

Marissa was outstanding in our legal matters of adopting our granddaughter. In fact the Judge was extremely complimentary in how she handled the case and the preparation of all of the legal documents. I would highly recommend Marissa for anyone needing the same or similar legal services.

Family lawyer | Feb 11

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I am a fellow attorney of Marissa's. She has helped me on several matters drafting pleadings and trial memoranda for complicated cases. Her writing skills are excellent and such are very important in the practice of law as the judges review prior to court proceedings. Often times, cases are won upon the pleadings, which gives Marissa an advantage not all lawyers possess. I endorse Marissa!"

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
