Very helpful

I hired Mary Stearns to help with a spousal support modification. She was an excellent listener, and provided sound advice. My issue was favorably resolved. I highly recommend her.

Long term marriage- Outstanding defense

Mary Stearns represented me in a long- term marriage divorce. She was very professional in her preparation of me for trail. She addressed my concerns and put up an outstanding defense. I could not have had a better council defending and fighting hard for my interests. Mary Stearns was worth every dol...lar I spent for her representation. I would not have made out as well is I did without her defense strategy. Mary Stearns is an outstanding lawyer. I would recommend her to anyone, If you're in a corner with a long term marriage. My long term future was on the line. Retirement assets, pensions etc..... Her defense in my case "Outstanding". During trail, She made opposing council look like an amateur.

Attorney Malpractice

As she said 'do what I say or I won't represent you'. Abusive and vindictive. Poor representation at best. If you question what's going on she attacks you. And Billing practices are agreegize and punitive. Had to hire a litigation lawyer to stop her continued harasment
