Marie M. Tilden

Our experience with Marie Tilden has been seamless, trouble free and completely reassuring and even enjoyable. She is a true professional who has demonstrated high levels of competence in dealing with our daughter's case but she has also shown empathy, understood our anxiety and fears and has been ex...tremely reassuring, putting our mind at rest and keeping us informed at all times. The care and concern that we have experienced was also demonstrated by Karen Townley (Marie's Personal Assistant). Overall, our evaluation is extremely positive. We were guided, advised and supported by a true professional who is dedicated to helping her clients but someone who is interested in people and who likes to build relationships. We will keep in touch with Marie and Karen and we recommend Marie Tilden without any hesitation.

I've read the other reviews here and I just can't remain silent, despite my natural tendency to avoid reviews/surveys. Simply put, if someone were to base their decision on hiring Marie (or not) on just those other reviews, they'd be gravely mistaken and misled. I walked in to Marie Tilden's offi...ce six and a half years ago, still in a daze that my marriage was in shambles and not knowing what would happen to a father in a custody fight. She was kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable and, after just an hour long conversation, exactly the attorney I knew I needed to protect my children. She was upfront and honest about the expense of divorce and how back-logged Clark County is/was so I knew that I wasn't going to get a cheap and easy and fast resolution. She reassured me that I wasn't alone and that she had my back. Neither of us were prepared for exactly what (and for how long) that really meant. My ex-wife has gone through 10 attorneys because of her irrational and inconsistent behavior while Marie has remained a steadfast and constant source of support, knowledge, and determination through what can only be described as a cautionary tale of a divorce and custody battle. Even though our dissolution finalized over 4 years ago, my ex-wife's unconscionable insistence on litigating her hatred for me has re-dragged me and our children back through the cold, dark, mud of a custody battle; yet Marie has soldiered on, right by my side, and fought for what's best for my children. I have custody (finalization of litigation will be within the next two months), I've been granted the ability to move, with my children, to a city where we are mere minutes from our family and in a school district that is phenomenal, and I was able to take a job that allows me to give back to my community, make enough money to comfortably support my family, and take the time I want to take to be an active participant in my children's lives. None of that would be possible without the guidance, help, and bulldog-esque determination of Marie Tilden. She is busy, yes - she is largely considered the foremost expert on adoption law in Clark County, a (rightfully so) sought after divorce lawyer, and a mom to three wonderful kids. She isn't the least expensive attorney, no - in this business, though, you get what you pay for and I would argue that the VALUE she brings to the table far outweighs the cost. She isn't your friend, available at your whim, no - she is so much more than that; when she takes your case, she is the hardest working, most supportive, newest member of your family, committed to doing whatever it takes to get the best situation she can for you and the ones you love. She doesn't win every time, no - but it will NEVER be for lack of effort. Maybe those other folks had crap cases, I don't know, but while we haven't won every motion or been able to mitigate every loss, in the end, my children are thriving and that's worth every minute, dollar, and bit of energy I've spent; and Marie has been right there with me the whole way. If you need an attorney for your divorce and/or custody case, there is literally no one more qualified or better suited to give you the best possible outcome than Marie Tilden.

Through out my divorce and attempt to mediate our parenting plan Marie would say she was going to do something and then not do it. I would not get replies to email and phone messages for long periods of time. Spent over $1000 to try to get mediation set up only to have her drop my case saying that ...I was too demanding. I never emailed or called more than once a week. My daughter has endured many months of ongoing emotional abuse because Marie did not do her job.
