Great Lawyer

If I could give Mary 10 stars I would. She handled my appeal after my divorce. An appeal is very hard to win. She won 5 out of 7 trial errors. She is very thorough and keeps me well informed. I will always go back to Mary for IL counsel. Also, Lisa that handles all Mary's appointments is very knowl...edgeable on process and requests. You will not be disappointed with this great legal team.

Exceptional Attorney

Can't say enough about Mary's work ethic, morals, and compassion. She treated me as a person rather than just a client; with kindness and compassion, but she definitely got the job done. I would highly recommend Mary.

Divorce

This was my first time, and hopefully the last that I need a lawyer. I must say I was extremely happy with the way Mary handled my case. Mary was unbelievably responsive, and really helped me through a rough time in my life. I can honestly say I walked away happy with the end result. I highly recom...mend Mary Brandes

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.
