Posted by Karen | July 13, 2015 | Military Law

Mara Snyder is excellent, personable and thorough

I worked with Mara when my husband was deployed and the mortgage company was not honoring SCRA law. Mara worked tirelessly to get the result I needed and to make things right. She is compassionate and patient, which was vital at a highly emotional time of my life. I would recommend Ms. Snyder with...out hesitation.
