Dorothy Ann Maryan

My lawyer did a great job with my DUI case. She handled my case in the best possible way, both in court and before the judge. She explained everything I needed before going to court, including what to prepare for and what to do. She made sure I didn't miss anything. I respect her very much and am ver...y grateful.

I didn’t make It easy for her. 5 different cause numbers, multiple felonies, and a record before with multiple convictions and felonies. She got me out on community corrections on a bond condition after my original bond was revoked. I did the work to get help and show the court I was capable of bein...g the individual that I was before this situation arose and she made sure I was held accountable for any missteps I made in the process. Amazing human being, honest about the possible outcomes without sugarcoating it. And will always fight for you! Nevertheless, I’m writing this review so she helped me avoid incarceration and for that I’m grateful. If you need counsel, or are seeking someone who will always shoot it straight, find you the mitigating factors and always have a smile on her face, please consider Dorie! I hope to never need her assistance again! But glad she was there for me!!

A friend recommended Dorie Maryian, He had used her to defend his son, and knew I had not only been arrested, but had an existing felony. While I was on probation for an unrelated charge. I was facing 2 1/2 years for this new charge, plus 6 yrs for a violation of my probation, because I had a new ch...arge. Dorie took control of my case, showed the Judge that he had not just the right, to dismiss this case, but the legal cause as well. The Judge was reluctant to put his name on a dismissal. So Dorie took the next step in resolving my case. She did an expert job taking depositions, gathering evidence, taking pictures, driving the route involved. All the while giving me enough comfort to maintain sanity. I have been told that when selecting an attorney you should always consider the 3 C’s, Credentials, Comfort, and Cost. Along with that try to examine case history. There is a reason Dorie has been listed in the rising stars section of “Super Lawyers” and in the top 100 Criminal defense lawyers. All the reviews I have found for her have been 5 star, except 1 and I think that review was for someone other than Dorie. As we went to trial where I sat and listened to the prosecutor badmouth me. Lie about me, and the events of the day, Dorie calmly worked the room and all of their witnesses as smoothly as she worked the legal system. In the end she brought in a “Not Guilty” verdict, kept the peace with my probation officer, and smoothed out everything in my life. As she did all of this she was able to keep me calm for the 10 months it took to tour our “speedy trial” system. After completion of the trial, She was even able to discount the cost a little. Although she is making a living, outcome seemed to be as big an issue as money. Credentials, Comfort, and Cost. She NAILED all 3 with a smile on her face. Dorie is the ONLY attorney I will ever use. Not that I want to think I will ever need an attorney again. But she is my Super Star.
