Mary Elizabeth Van Orman

Mary van orman will promise you the moon when she is trying to get money from you. She seldom showed up to court and I had to remind her of our court dates. She has new staff every 6 weeks and I was told she failed to pay many of them then fired them after they realized they were not getting paid and... demanded their salary. When I hired her my divorce went on for one year and she had gone through 9 paralegals. Nothing ever got done. When she did decide to return your emails they were full of misspelled words and always asked for more money. If you did not give it to her she would threaten to fire me as a client. This woman is a piece of work. Don't trust her. She does this regularly. I filed a complaint with the state bar and she is under investigation.

Mary is all about the client. She has gone the extra mile and then some for me. I have been a client of Mary's for over 15 years first with a child custody case and now divorce. She is dedicated and works until she gets the best resolution for her clients. I would highly recommend her to anyone t...hat wants to come out the winner in their case. She fights for her clients and doesn't let them get taken to the cleaners. I wish there was more family law attorneys like Mary who put their client first above all else.

After 27 years of marriage I thought we could end it with class. However my soon to be ex did not want a divorce. As a result he did his best to stall. My secret weapon was Mary!! She advised me on how to protect myself and daughter financially plus she new how to work the system allowing the divor...ce to finalize just 6 months after I filed. I could e-mail her anytime of day and she or her assistant would respond within 24 hours. Worth every penny!!!

My family has utilized Mary Van Orman's expertise in the matter of amending child custody agreements and having previous arrangements reversed in the best interest of my grandchildren. She is brilliant in her field, aggressive when needed and always assertive. We found her to be caring and forthrig...ht. She arranged mediation for us that helped us to avoid a trial but gave a positive outcome for my grandchildren. We have consulted with her many times before the case on divorce, child custody, child abuse and neglect. CPS had been notified but it wasn't until Mary got involved that things started to change for the better. We have since continued to confer with her matters that involve visitation with the other parent. I would recommend Mary Van Orman and have done so. Our relationship with Mary Van Orman as an attorney or consultant has been ongoing for approximately 20 years. I wouldn't hesitate to retain her again. Thank you, a very grateful grandmother.
