Ann-Marie Okros

Ann-Marie was recommended to me by a close friend and I’m very glad I took his advice! Ann-Marie is very easy to get along with, knowledgeable and represents you well in the court room. She helped me through a very stressful and emotional custody battle with a high conflict ex. She kept me well infor...med and told me realistically what to expect and talked me through each step, which I really appreciated. Not only did she represent me well, she was able to get me the outcome I had hoped for. I would recommend her to anyone and plan to use her in the future if needed!

Ann Marie has represented me for 4 years now , I’ve had a few things going on those years and she was by my side each time till the very end and the end was always a win! I can’t thank her enough for all she has done for me and how loyal, and tremendously smart ,and helpful she is and has been to me... in my life. Ann Marie will forever and always be the only one to ever represent me for the rest of my life. Thank you Ann Marie I cherish everything you’ve done for me and the friendship we have , you have been my rock in so many ways. Thank you Thank you a million times over!!

I really hate writing a bad review but my experience with Ann-Marie was such that I feel it's necessary to warn people so they don't get served the negligence that I was served. It was just a really bad experience. She charged me nearly $6,000 and did almost nothing. She went through the first $3,...000 so fast claiming it was spent "reviewing emails and working on my case" but then after our first hearing before the judge it was clear she knew nothing of my case and hadn't read my emails, which she never responded to anyways. She rolls into court WAY late, speed walking down the courthouse hallway, hair a mess, out fit in shambles, carrying a stack of papers literally 10" thick, and a look of panic on her face. Why not be 10 min early with a briefcase and looking like you're about to earn that money? I was literally embarrassed that this was my representation. Out of breath she starts hounding me for information about the hearing and at that point it was absolutley evident she hadn't "reviewed emails and worked on my case" like her invoice claimed. We lost that hearing and i lost my custody to false accusations and zero evidence. It only gets worse. She demanded another $3,000 to continue and through extreme hesitation i gave it to her. From that point on she went absolutely silent. She wouldn't return a phone call, text, email, nothing. I left messages at her office and on her cell and nothing. This went on for days and days and I finally had to retain another attorney becuase she was just missing. Then after telling me she completely understood why I retained another attorney and admitted she dropped the ball on my case, SHE KEPT THE OTHER $3,000! This wasn't money invoiced for services rendered but rather advance pay to bill off from. When I asked for my $ back that was the last i heard from her. Literally for months now she refuses to return a call, an email, a text, nothing. Just like when she was working for me. Absolute silence. Why wouldn't a professional at least return an email and explain why they feel they should keep the money or at least send an invoice with a breakdown of expenses? Only a thief would do that. She is just not a professional and I should file a grievance against her.
