My review

“Maxine is the best…. she was there through one of the toughest time in my life. She is highly knowledgeable, highly experienced, genuine but best of all TOUGH in court. I’m a mother of 3 children thinking once a divorce was over so would all child custody issues. Due to other party I was surprise...d and taken to court. I was so stressed out when my previous attorney was no longer available, and Maxine took over my case and was ready to represent my case within a week! Maxine was indispensable in helping me through a difficult time. She was acutely aware of just how important my kids are to me, and she tailored her advice and strategy towards this goal. Going through a child custody battle was especially emotional for me and at the end children get affected with any changes in a home. I was trying to gain a footing in unfamiliar and challenging legal, financial, and societal situations. It was a physically and mentally draining experience. Maxine helped me focus on my children’s welfare, while working energetically towards all my goals. Maxine explained the process and developed a strategy that resulted in the best outcome possible. Maxine was especially helpful in coordinating communications, tracking deadlines, and organizing the extensive legal documents. Because of her hard work, I can now concentrate on spending time with my children, knowing that the settlement agreement provides a solid framework" Unfortunately I will probably will need to return to court due to others party noncompliance, but it helps to know I have Maxine in my corner!

Maxine knows her stuff

Maxine was my representative. On day one I explained my child custody case. I was then given the specifics on possible agenda from opposing counsel; as well as possible outcomes. My anxiety was high needless to say. But knowing what to expect helped. Also, I could tell Maxine wanted to represent my i...nterest well - better then what I myself wanted to do; In short, Maxine was in my corner. The case was wrapped up as I hoped. But even before that happened - I was ready and willing to take the gloves off; given I felt I was well represented. I hope legal issues are behind me; but should they come back - I will definitely lookup Maxine again.

Awesome Attorney

I hired Maxine for my divorce case. She was very knowledgeable and got straight to the point on all of the issues. She explained the process and what to expect in simple terms. Maxine negotiated a deal that I was very pleased with. I got more than what I was entitled to. I knew I was in good... hand after my initial consultation with her. I would highly recommend Maxine.
