Review Marissa Hanson

LOVE her

Posted by

I have used Marissa Hanson several times and she has been truly kind and caring and a true asset to have. Most importantly she has provided me with accurate information and helped me through all the stages to address my various legal issues. I cant even begin to say how wonderful she is and I plan to use her as my attorney for many years
This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

THANKS MARISSA FOR THE EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE HANDELING OF THE REALESTATE FILES WHERE IN THIS MARKET THE SHORT SALES ARE TOUGH BUT YOU ARE ROUGH AND GET THEM CLOSED. WE NEED THAT ASSURANCE FROM AN ATTORNEY AND THE CONFIDENCE THAT THE DEALS ARE GOING TO CLOSE. YOU ALSO HELP TO SPEED THE PROCESS BY THE CONSTANT COMMUNICATION WITH ALL PARTIES INVOLVED. THANKS AGAIN AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Marissa Hanson's response: Always a pleasure to work with the talented and energetic Mrs. Ferguson.

Marissa is one of the most diligent and prepared attorneys that I have ever come across. She is diligent in her search of case law that allows her to present her clients with the best possible strategy.

Lidia Serrano, Child custody Attorney on Aug 16, 2013
Relationship: Supervised lawyer

Marissa has been an associate at my firm for almost three years. In that period of time, Marissa has proven herself to be an exceptional attorney with a high regard for her profession and for her clients. As her supervisor and mentor, I have no concerns about her ability to manage the cases or take care of our clients. Marissa manages her cases with professionalism, diligence and proficiency and her clients with honesty and compassion. These are only a few of the reasons why I highly recommend her.
