Worth every penny....

Mariana is one of the attorneys in Holstrom, Sissung, Marks & Anderson Law Firm. She is one of the best attorney by far I have seen, and yes by having a vexatious litigant of an ex-husband I am dragged in court since 2000 and I have sat in so many family law court rooms for over 12 years and listened... to so many attorneys defend their client, and I can honestly say I have never seen one as aggressive and knowledgeable as Atty. Mariana Hevia-Cockrell. She got the job done for me. Even my case was a rarity. I move from California to Virginia and I was the non-custodial parent and when my 12 years old daughter decided she wants to live with me full time and was very unhappy with her life in California, I realized that it will be an uphill battle and one that cannot be self represented. So when I called the law firm of Holstrom, Sissung, Marks & Anderson, my mind was put at ease. Atty: Hevia-Cockrell and her team were very knowledgeable and very quick to response on all of my questions. When I first talk to her and laid out my problems she right away has all the answer and strategy place as to how we can proceed in court and how we can make it done and win. She never promise anything she can't deliver but she put her best to get it done. She is highly recommended and I will definitely hire her again in the future.

Second time using Mariana Hevia-Cockrell at Holstrom Sissung Marks and Anderson

I used Dayn Holstrom as both my Divorce Attorney and didnt have a second thought as who to use for my Child Support Modification hearing. Dayn and his team are very aggressive, informative, and knowledgable. I was very confident in Dayn and his entire team. Thank you to the very knowledgable Maria...na Hevia-Cockrell. My case was handled in a very timely manner, considering we didn't have alot of time. All of the information that I provided allowed the team to put together an amazing case. Dayn came into court and proved to me that I had once again made the best decision I could have, by chosing this office. I was more than satisified with the turnout of my cases. Thank you to Mariana Hevia-Cockrell and Dayn for all of your efforts, timely responses to phone calls and emails and keeping me informed of all that was going on with my case. I would absolutelly recommend Mariana Hevia-Cockrell and her team to anyone. If you are looking for someone strong, aggressive and responsive, Mariana and Dayn as well as the entire team are the ones for you.

TOP NOTCH ATTORNEY

I was referred to Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson by a friend who said they were the very best. I have to say he was absolutely right! Since the moment I walked in to the firm I felt as if a huge wheight lifted off my shoulders. After being harrassed and taken advantage of by my estranged husband a...nd his attorney I finally didn't feel afraid. I am very Impressed with Mariana Hevia-Cockrell. She Is very knowledgable, organized, compassionate, and knows how to be aggressive. She knows exactly what to do and will defend you with all she's got!! Mariana is currently working on my domestic violence/divorce/child custody case and I am confident to say that she will GET IT DONE! The entire staff at Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson is extraordinary, they make you feel at ease & really know how to take care of their clients. Tiffany Zurita is the paralegal assigned to assist with my case. She has been very helpful & professional. She answer all my questions/emails within a matter of minutes and really gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson.

"My saving grace"

Finding a lawyer can be a daunting task, especially in circumstances where you have an uphill custody battle to fight! In my case I was blind sided by my ex when I was served with papers for him to move away with our daughters to Virginia. Obviously, this is not a thing to take lightly so naturally ...we wanted the BEST attorney in town! In my opinion that is what we found, everyone seemed to have the sense of urgency and priority for our case. I felt like I had a team of kind, professional and knowledgable people on my side. I have to say thank you to everyone we met there, Dayn,Valerie,Tammy, Tiffany and most importantly my attorney Mariana Hevia-Cockrell.

Trustworthy and Reliable

I was forced to hire an attorney when my ex filed a motion for full custody of our daughter even though I had been the custodial parent since birth . I have worked with Dayn, Jeff and Mariana throughout my case and I have never been disappointed. I was very comfortable with each of them. I never f...elt nervous at any time throughout my case. Before I hired them, I was representing myself and it has been very scary. They did a great job in representing me and won my case for me. I have an upcoming support hearing and I am comforted by the fact that I know I have great representation. Dayn agreed to work with me financially. Had he not done this I would have been fighting this battle alone. Dayn’s firm is the first and only attorney I have used. I will never use another firm in the future either. Comfort is very important to me and every person in that office makes me feel comfortable. This is a great feeling.
