Sticks with you throughout

Mari is a wonderful attorney. She is calm, and collected when it's most important. She doesn't make false promises, and will be real with you on potential outcomes and timelines. She stuck with me even without consistent monthly payments through a long drawn out divorce. Before entering the court roo...m, she told me what to expect, and she never disappointed me.

Horrible Lawyer & Incompetent Assistant

Working with Marni on my Divorce was frustrating to say the least but working with her Assistant Olivia was hell. She is completely rude on the phone and dismissive of my concerns. She made numerous mistakes that my new lawyer has had to correct. Olivia is condescending and treats the client like the...y are idiots that should trust everything she says. I quit working with Marni and went to a new Lawyer after paying Marni far to much for my frustration and very little actual legal advice or work. After working with another fantastic Attorney I am amazed at the difference. For the same amount I paid Marni for a total of about 40 min with her and 2 hours with her incompetent assistant I have received about 10 Hrs of strategic advice and knowledge form my new lawyer. Marni appears sweet and soft spoken when you meet her but cares very little about helping you.

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.
