Professional and competent

Martha helped us with a civil dispute in which the debtor refuses to pay. She's assisting with collecting payment through a judgment and navigating conciliation court.

Professional and effective

Used Martha's services for a motion I was served with. She did an excellent job of getting the issue resolved out of court in mediation. Our family has decided to hire her to handle some other family planning work for us as well.

Fantastic!

Martha took my divorce case right before a pretrial after I had been represented by a horrible attorney. She managed to get up to speed rather quickly and represent me verry well. I would recommend her to anyone and have.

Get your will done; easier than you think!

We have put off doing any estate planning for years, thinking it would be time-consuming and expensive. Martha interviewed us for about an hour, explained all the legal terms and ramifications of choosing various options, and a week later we had documents to sign, including health directives and powe...r of attorney. She was focused on protecting our interests and our kids, and kept it simple and straightforward. Her fees were unbelievably reasonable!

Business affiliate and client

Ms. Sullivan is the most competent attorney in her field. She goes above and beyond when representing you. She does not only tell you how the case will affect you in the moment but in the future. She researches similar case studies, she finds new ways that others may not have thought of. She thin...ks outside of the box and knows that you are the client. She works with your family and you in mind and not her pocket book. She is certainly out to better society and human kind. She is the best attorney I have ever met. If she does not know the answer, or the area of law she will be very up front with you. She is honest, ethical and extremely professional. She is the person you want on your side in the court room.

Avvo Rating

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
