Posted by Eric | December 21, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Foreclosure

Foreclosure Stopped

With Kathleen's help and advice over several years she kept my family in our home that was threatened with foreclosure. She never gave up and was always there when the bank tried to make us give up our home. The foreclosure has been settled to our advantage due to Kathleen's deep knowledge of the leg...al aspects of real estate.

The right person fighting for me

Kathleen O'Sullivan Mahan went above and beyond to fight for my rights in a real estate foreclosure matter, which led to a great outcome for me after a long case. She demonstrated tenaciousness, expertise, dedication, grit, and a heart of gold in the midst of it all. Just what was needed - a tough st...rategyzer who is skilled when dealing with the relevant laws and able to do serious battling with the other side without losing the human touch necessary to communicate effectively and remain connected well with me through a very difficult time that was taking quite a toll on me. She helped me through it and saw that I was not taken advantage of. I recommend her as THE attorney you want to have representing you when the going gets rough. Her many decades of experience and knowledge working on real estate law are highly valuable in securing a prevailing decision in your favor, in my opinion – a wise investment in you getting justice and a fair outcome like I did... AND - I'll never stand by tolerating another bad lawyer joke in my presence again. :-) I'm very grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
