Very Happy

I am very happy with the service I received through Berger Law Firm. I had Maria as my lawyer, and she was very attentive and responded to my questions.

Nice person Bad lawyer

I often felt out of the loop. I found information out from the other side before Maria. I do not feel she was honest about all parts of the case. I think that she let her bias or the bias of the Judge get in the way of the facts. The facts would have led me to spend far less money on certain areas o...f the case that I had Maria check out at my expense.

I am fairly certain, by the use of language, that the person who posted this was not my client.

Exceptional service in a small town

I have used Maria for several matters, including family law and estate issues. My experience with her and her firm is that they are prompt, knowledgeable, and good problem solvers. I found her to be a fantastic resource and would highly recommend her, and often do.

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.
