Professionalism at its best is Marisa. During my first conversation with her I felt a lot of anxiety in addition to uncertainty on how I was going to move for forward with the life changing event facing me. Her leadership is on point. She is a great listener and communicator. I was amazed at her knowledge, focus, and understanding of my needs. Her ability to address what was required in a move for forward plan truly eased my level of anxiety. This case has taken some time to complete. None of which was her fault. She displayed determination to meet the objective. I was informed without hesitation the status of the case. For this I am truly grateful. When she was not available her support member (Amanda) filled in wonderfully. I was never left in the dark and always felt my best interest was always priority one. The atmosphere generated gave me a level of comfort and peace of mind.
The journey is not complete. I could not have asked for a better person to help get me through some difficult times. Shur Law Co is fortunate to have the services of Marisa.
She is outstanding. I have a tremendous amount of respect for her.
Marisa represented me for a worker's comp claim. She was thorough, professional and very knowledgeable about the process. She explained things every step of the way and went above and beyond to make sure my health was the priority. She gave me piece of mind about what to expect during my case. She was prompt in returning calls and answering questions. I definitely recommend her talents and services. Truly amazing!

Great choice! Great result:)
Marisa was referred to me by a friend of mine that had used her previously and had nothing but good things to say about her. So I called and Marisa set up a free consult with me promptly. She listened to all I had to say. She was professional. She was honest and upfront with what she could and could not do for me. She put forth other suggestions in areas where I couldn't do what I originally wanted. But most of all, she could relate to my situation personally. And this helped a great deal in how to approach and build case that I needed. That first consult I witnessed a tiny, petite woman full of energy. She was gutsy and full of determination to do all she could to win my case. At end of my consult and after listening to all I had to say, she explained honestly that she thought my case would not win and why. She said she be happy to do all she could do, but that it did not look very promising. After thinking on it a few weeks, I called her and told her I couldn't not at least try and I hired her. We started putting case together and long story short, she won my "not so promising" case! During trial she was professional, bold, relentless and put my ex-husband to shame. Marisa was also very good at communication and following up with me. Lines of communication were solid. I would highly recommend her. I, myself, will be using her one at least one more time.

good attorney
I worked with Marisa after a coworker recommended her. I have worked with with a few attorneys due to some on-going issues with an ex-spouse. Marisa was much better to work with than any of the other attorneys. She did a great job and was always easy to get in touch with.

Above and Beyond
My family retained Marisa to represent our father in an Ohio Worker's Compensation fraud case. Every other attorney laughed at him and said it was hopeless. Marisa put her heart and soul into the case. She combed through thousands of pages of documents to find all of the BWC's errors and lies. She was fierce and confident at the hearing. We truly believe she gave him the best defense that could have possibly been argued. We will definitely be referring Marisa to others. If you need someone who is dedicated and passionate about representing you, I would definitely recommend her.
