Mary Ann Noiroux

I was lucky enough to have Mary Ann as my representation when I was going through a difficult time. She was quick to return phone calls and always explained thoroughly what was going on and what the next step would be. She patiently answered every question that I had. Her legal team at office (Maxine...-Lauren -Diana) are very nice and professional. I truly believe that she got me the best result possible. I enthusiastically endorse her to anyone who needs legal help.

Mary Ann was recommended to me when I needed an attorney to address child custody issues. I could not have been more satisfied with this recommendation. Mary Ann listens. She is compassionate and caring, yet she is also honest. We have unfortunately had a variety of situations arise and while thi...s has been a stressful, drawn out process, I feel that I have been extremely well represented. Mary Ann is able to take my feelings, frustrations and concerns and succinctly puts them into well written documents. In the end, I have what is most important to me, full custody of my son and I have her to thank for that. I would recommend her without hesitation. She is professional, organized and absolutely knows what she is doing.

I was referred to Mary Ann Noiroux by an acquaintance who was also an attorney, but didn't specialize in Family Law. Let me tell you that was the best referral that I've ever received! I was faced with a divorce involving two minor children after many years of marriage, and to further complicate my s...ituation my now ex-wife is a powerful attorney herself. Outgunned and intimidated, I turned to Mary Ann for relief from a very painful situation. She literally saved my life! She immediately put an end to many unpleasant and harsh conditions, established a level playing ground, and never ceased being a zealous advocate of my rights as father of my children and as the weaker partner in the marriage. Everything that she predicted would happen did happen. She has exceptional maneuverability inside of the court system and is well respected by her peers. Mary Ann, simply stated, is an exceptional attorney with an incredible array of skill sets. I will be forever grateful for what she has done for me! Pat P.

I strongly do not recommend Marry Ann as a reliable lawyer for your divorce case. Her service was so unprofessional with lots of unnecessary and unexplained charges, very disorganized with a very bad result and negative attitude that i could not stop myself from warning people. I hired her to repr...esent me in my divorce case which was not complicated, on the first meeting she gave me lots of promises and assurance to get me hire her. As soon as i hired her, her tone change. She finished her retainer fees with lots of unnecessary charges so quickly and then she revealed the truth about her services knowing that I was stuck with her. She Charged me 22K even before the first appearance on the court and she dragged everything and Made lots of unnecessary charges without result. whenever you ask her question regarding your case she would make you feel so dumb about yourself. In my experience, Marry Ann will drag the case as long as she can to make more money. She never Prepares herself before the appointment and More than half of every single meeting i had with her was spent on reminding her about the details of my case by repeating the same old information over and over that she already had in her files and she would charge me for the full session even though she was never prepared. She does not take criticism well, she gets upset when you complain about her unreasonable bills or strategy. Eventually she gave away a set of key documents to my husbands attorney without my permission or consulting with me and it cost me my case. After i told her i want to settle the case and not go to the court, She left me a voice mail that she wont represent me anymore just 2 days before my court date and she left me without representation. Because she realized if i settle she wont make money out of me any more so she decided to drop me. Stay away and find another attorney. Strongly advice against hiring Marry Ann.

I don't usually go on line to write reviews, but am so pleased and relieved at the outcome of my very complex divorce case I feel a need to make my satisfaction known. I just read the previous review and had to smile. Sounds like maybe my EX wrote that to get back at Ms. Noiroux. I'm a pretty good j...udge of people, and Mary Ann Noiroux sure didn't let me down. I've never seen anyone go into a trial so exhaustively prepared. Each instance that opposing counsel tried to accuse me of something or slither out of something, Mary Ann had the document, the transcript, or the recollection to rebut; and rebut rebut, rebut, she did. I was really nervous to actually have to go to trial (most divorce cases in California settle..but my ex is beyond imagination vengeful and didn't care about costs as long as I was damaged) . The whole Rager and Noiroux team worked together tirelessly and presented an organized, sophisticated legal front that gave me an outcome I could have only hoped for. Because community assets were in the 7 figures, the case involved child abuse, ugly child custody issues, fraud, IRS issues and more, many of my OC friends urged me to find a legal dream team in Los Angeles. Well, I found my dream team, right here in Irvine. Although Mary Ann Noiroux is funny, classy and warm, make no mistake, she's a pitbull in court when she needs to be. Consistently I noted that she chose what was best for me, rather than what would continue the case. In my behalf, she made settlement offer after settlement offer and kept careful minute by minute records of how reasonable I had been throughout this lengthy case. No doubt that fact, coupled with her exhaustive, catalogued, records of such, held sway with the judge. From Day One, she kept careful records so that when we finally, unfortunately, had to prepare for trial, we were able to present an organized, compelling story that justified my request for attorney's fees and costs, child support, spousal and a favorable property settlement division.
