Helpful and Affordable

I had a great experience with Mary Beth. She helped me with my divorce, answered all of my questions and was able to give me a very good idea of what the cost would be. i couldn't be happier.

Very sharp

I hired Mary to help me with a fairly complex divorce/real estate issue. She went thru a huge stack of paperwork and other information I provided her. She is very thorough. She asked me numerous questions to make sure she fully understood my case. She filed all necessary paperwork with the courts... properly and on time. She spent a lot of time studying case law and past rulings in regard to my specific situation. In court she was professional. She did an excellent job of questioning myself and the plaintiff. She was aggressive when it was necessary. Unfortunately I was not successful in this particular matter, but I do not believe that had anything to do with the quality of my representation. If I ever needed help with a legal issue in the future I would call Mary.

Great work in my divorce

I just finished my divorce case and had a great experience with Marybeth. She always kept me updated and informed. She also helped me figured out ways to keep my costs down.

Big fan

I have used Marybeth for not one, but two divorces. It wasn't my plan to be divorced twice in the last few years, but I found myself in some pretty unfortunate circumstances. Marybeth has never judged me or made me feel embarrassed about my situation. Instead, she gave me honest information, hard ...work and got me through it. She provided more than legal representation and was a shoulder to lean on when I needed it most.

Have used her over and over with good luck

Marybeth has been my attorney for several years and my family has used her for a variety of things. We have purchased property, gone through child custody issues, had some minor criminal issues and even did some estate planning. Marybeth has always been able to help us (or to refer us to someone wh...o can). I am fortunate to have an attorney I can call if I just have a quick question or need to know if an issue is more serious than I think it might be. Everyone should have a lawyer on speed dial and I recommend her.

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.
