Mary Elizabeth Van Orman

Mary is a very good lawyer, I have never had somebody so tough be on my side always. Granted she is very busy but the one thing that I've always noticed is she knows exactly which case she's on at which time no matter if she has to go to a different courtroom or not her memory is amazing. Even thr...ough hardships in her own life she sticks her neck out for those who can't do it themselves. Although she is expensive it is well worth the money in time she spends for me. I would have never have gotten this far without her integrity and guidance and support. She's the best thing that was put in my path and I would not change it for the world. She has been there every step of the way and has told me what it is that we are going to do and how it's going to get done. Though sometimes things don't always go as planned when we need them to she's always doing her job so that I can keep mine.

Mary was compassionate to my unique situation and dedicated to fighting for my parental rights as a father of a small child. I cannot speak for others, but after exhausting other failed legal counsel, I found her to be the ideal fit to have represent me in my divorce case. Not only did she deeply car...e about my case, she cared about me as a person and how I was handling it all through the process. Mary is definitely someone you want on your side to help you through a difficult divorce.. I highly recommend her.

Mary was never prepared in my case. She was running back and forth between courts making excuses. Her employees told me all their clients were mad. She did nothing on my behalf. I'm amazed she still has a license to practice. My first request was to change my maiden name back -- she failed to do ...even that.

Mary gets the job done. Understand though--Mary is very busy. Mary may not get back to you right away. Mary is expensive. Mary will tell you if what you are looking for is feasible or even in the best interest of your children. She pulls no punches to you or the opposition. I like that. The bes...t part of working with Mary though is watching all the other attorneys (mediation or wherever) kiss up to her because they want to stay on her good side. Seriously. And every one of them at some point pulled me aside and congratulated me on hiring the best. I will reiterate one more time. She will tell you and fight for what is in the best interest of your children.
