Flat rate.

I hired Neill for my divorce . He answers every email and every one of my many questions. He answers emails on weekends and nights. He offered me an affordable fee and if we settled there would not be more of a fee. He was very patient with me. I highly recommend.

Will Not Advocate For You

Though Attorney Marangi is a very kind person, he isn't an aggressive attorney that fights for your best interests. He is incredibly chill and seems to have a "Well, that's a good enough offer from the other side's attorney" mentality. While Opposing Counsel was demanding during our mediation and fig...htingfor their client, Mr. Marangi expressed the desire to "wrap things up quickly" because he did not "pIan to stay at mediation past 5:00 P.M." I didn't feel Mr. Marangi was "in my corner" and am disappointed too with his lack of legal guidance. I admitedly contracted a budget-friendly lawyer and am getting exactly what I paid for. **Be aware that because Mr. Marangi's fees are so very low, he has a much larger caseload of clients than your typical attorney so you won't get to actually speak to nor meet with him unless you pay more. He emails you 99% of the time to keep in touch and answers the majority of your questions/concerns with "Okay, got it" and literally nothing more. As the client, •you• have to pull legal advice out of him and he constantly asks you, the client, how you want to proceed with the divorce process rather than offer you legal options that he and you can take the time to discuss calmly in order to decide the best steps for your case.His payment schedule isn't very clear either. Please go to the courthouse and seek FREE legal advice often BEFORE hiring an attorney. Take advantage of all attorneys offering FREE consultations before deciding which attorney will best represent you.

If you need representation in San Diego, Consider Neill Marangi

This has definitely not been an easy task for either of us. The past 3 years (almost) have been challenging. During my divorce, I have had to endure challenges which I wish upon no one. Divorce is stressful and overwhelming at times. It is a battle between two people at their absolute worst. But I am... happy that I had his help throughout the process. We have come to and made agreements, only to have them disagreed to within the very next breath by the opposing parties. He helped keep me calm throughout the entire process. And helped me refocus during the hard times when everything seemed to be at its absolute worst. I can say that he got back to me whenever I had a question. Sometimes those answers weren't what I necessarily wanted to hear. But instead what I needed to hear. There is "no way to guess how things will be perceived in court" what decision will be made or how things will be looked at by a judge. The only thing that we can do to help the process is to provide the truth, and state what you are trying to gain so your attorney has a clear understanding of the end goal. One thing I can say about Neill is, give him the evidence you have. Give a brief summary of what happened and let him argue the case for you to the best of his ability. He is VERY professional, VERY knowledgeable in his art, and a GREAT lawyer from what I have experienced over the past nearly 3 years working with him on my case. I am happy that I found him, and I appreciate the hard work he put into this case during court hearings. As this was a VERY challenging time. I would highly recommend Neill Marangi to anyone who is looking for a divorce attorney they can trust. He has been ethical, honest, honorable, trustworthy and patient. And has helped me with my misunderstanding's throughout this entire process and again I am thankful that I found him to represent me in my time of need. I was once told "A happy marriage never ends in divorce" by a source I don't recall. But those words hold very true. I hope to never need his services again in the future. But if I do, I know I can go to someone who I trust to represent me through bad times again. If you are already considering divorce, Neill Marangi is my recommendation as an attorney and should be considered to represent you in your time of need.
