Mari Tiitso Luna

We needed to divorce, but we also really needed to save money if possible. We wanted to do it ourselves, but the paperwork was just too overwhelming. It was hard to know where to start. Mari gave us a free consultation and explained the divorce process to us. Then, we booked an appointment an...d got started. She worked with us to mediate a fair parenting plan that worked for us & our kids, determine reasonable child support, and then mediated with us to divide all of our property. We agreed to everything, and in the end, it seemed very fair to both of us. We tried to fill out some of the forms; then, Mari reviewed them, made changes if needed, & completed them for us. She told us how to file the Petition at the courthouse ourselves and then appear for the Status Conference to give all the paperwork to the judge so he could approve everything and make our divorce final. When we compared our experience with some of our friends, we were happy to report we finished our entire divorce for much, much less than any of our friends paid. Also, Mari kept emphasizing how important it was for our kids to know how much we both loved them and that they weren't responsible for our divorce in any way. My husband and I were able to negotiate everything reasonably & still remain on cordial terms during the process. Now that some time has passed, it's easy to see how much this matters to our kids and us. All things considered, we're all doing really well! My ex and I agree that hiring Mari to mediate the issues in our divorce was a great decision. Highly recommended!

When my ex and I separated, l left behind all my tools, some gold and diamond jewelry, and all the things my father left me after he passed away. My ex and I separated on bad terms, and I dreaded having to talk to her again. Mari arranged things so I didn't ever have to see my ex face-to-face. We med...iated a number of issues, but the most important thing was my ex agreed to return ALL of my possessions and actually brought them to me here in Spokane. Mari wrote a formal agreement we both singed, and it was all over very quickly. It was the best ending I could have hoped for. I would recommend Mari in a minute to anyone needing an attorney or a mediator.

My ex-wife filed for divorce and said i had threaten her and the children. Mari filed for a hearing, and I was able to tell my side of things. The judge realized my ex had been exaggerating. We ended up with a fair plan Mari drafted where we both got to spend a lot of time with the kids. Mari kept ...me informed and always called me back when I called her--this is not always the case with attorneys. She was really great, and I would hire her again.

My husband of 22 years told me he wanted a divorce. I was completely shocked and devastated. I called Mari because I knew her from a class we had taken together. She not only gave me sound advice, but calmed me down, as well. She suggested mediation in an attempt to keep things as civil as possib...le for us and our three kids and to help save my ex and I money. I discussed every step of the mediation with her, and she helped me decide if I should agree to issues or not, accept proposals, etc. She gave me sound arguments for my positions and insisted I not accept less than the amount I actually needed each month. The outcome was better than I really expected, and I give Mari most of the credit. She was really great.
