Marie H. Briner

As a lawyer myself, I was very picky about who would represent me when I needed it most. Like others, I initially made the mistake of hiring a low-cost attorney. And I got what I paid for so I fired him. My next lawyer was much more expensive. More expensive must mean he's a better lawyer, right?... No. In fact, not only did he not learn the facts of my file, but the final straw that led to his firing just before mediation was that he didn't even take the time to learn my kids' names. With mediation looming I found myself without a lawyer so I called Marie. Marie was a study partner of mine in law school so I was initially hesitant to share so much of my personal story with her. But I quickly realized that was an unfounded concern because Marie has been nothing but professional, discreet, sensitive and caring and all while doing a fantastic job of representing my interests as good, or better than anyone else had before - especially that expensive lawyer! Bottom line: Marie will zealously advocate for you, provide you practical advice and do so in manner that helps you get through the difficult time AND she will learn you kids' names. You cannot go wrong with Marie in your corner. In fact, as a lawyer myself I frequently am requested for a referral and my first choice is always Marie and she has never made me regret putting my own reputation on the line with those referrals.
