Someone I feel comfortable with who gets things done

I have had a few attorney's I've hired for an enduring custody battle, and after I thought all was lost in hiring a truly reliable attorney, Marilyn came along and has helped me so much. Marilyn does what she says she will do, and goes to bat for you. The thing is she understood everything I said to ...her and is compassionate about the matters I was concerned about. I highly recommend at least consulting with her, her team is amazing and I couldn't be more satisfied.

Bankruptcy

Marilyn has been the very best, I will never use any else! She took the time to explain the process and my options. After I filed my 13, I had some pretty big changes in my family and wanted to switch to 7, she was completely supportive of my decision and even help me come up with additional options,... should I need them. Going in front of the trustee was very intimidating, I was so relieved to have her by my side. She is very knowledgeable and always on top of things.

Bankruptcy / Family Court

Marilyn is truly amazing. She help me out with my bankruptcy situation. I never felt so relieved knowing she took care of everything. All the debt collection calls was so stressful to deal with on my own. Marilyn would pick up my calls and answer my emails in a timely manner. She also helped out with... a family court case. She give 100% when she is in the court room. She makes you feel like your case is the only case she’s working on. Anyone who has her as their lawyer is truly in good hands! She is the best and will put up a good fight!! Our family loves her and appreciate everything she has done for us!!
