Debra Marino was the absolute best attorney I could have ever asked for. She was extremely knowledgeable and had to lead the other sides attorney that was not very seasoned, she was tough and drafted the plan of action swiftly on my behalf, she had me put restraining orders in place in addition to my protective order granted by the criminal court which helped tremendously. She’s not cheap but you get what you pay for as far as lawyers go. She was very caring and made me feel like she was my friend fighting for me and my children in court, she also has a fabulous office that is a team of caring women who helped make this whole ugly nightmare that much easier. In the end I got everything I wanted and I am so grateful to Attorney Marino!

I hired Deb to handle my divorce after I felt I was getting the run around from my previous attorney. Deb was up front from the beginning in telling me what to expect and she was spot on. She went head to head with my ex wife's attorney and beat her every time I wound up with custody of my daughter and exclusive use of the family home. My ex had to move out and could not come back. When the final settlement came down I got everything i asked for and NO ALIMONY....... Of course my ex wife's attorney was an idiot but Deb was so overpowering i believe she settled because she was afraid to go up against her in the courtroom. Deb is not cheap but worth every penny...I highly recommend her if you have a tricky divorce with many assets like it did Thanks Deb

Excellent lawyer. Handled a very complex divorce for me and brought in a forensic accountant to value my husbands business. She got me the most incredible settlement. Did weekly check ins to make sure I was ok. Great staff.

I had the privilege of meeting with and hiring Debra B Marino early this year. Not only is she an amazing attorney but she took the time to comfort me and explain all the nuances that I might encounter during this difficult time and during my trial. MY outcome was amazing and I have since recommended her to several other people, some of whom have hired her. She made an awful period of my life bearable and enabled me to start over again with a good financial outcome. She is top notch.

Ms. Marino was able to get me custody of my kids and supervised visits from their mother who was an alcoholic. She was fierce , yet compassionate with me. I have gone back to her many times over the years. She is the best of the best.

I consulted Attorney Marino for a post divorce matter. She was very compassionate, understanding, informative and knowledgeable of my situation. When needed I will be retaining her to represent me.

Attorney Marino came highly recommended and has an amazing reputation as a family law attorney. She helped me with my custody case and was worth every penny. If you are facing a divorce, custody case or anything related, she is the attorney you want in your corner.

The other side's attorney seemed so much stronger and more experienced than she did, sadly. Also, I wish she had given me an idea of what to expect in terms of fees. Her retainer did not take me far! Don't be blindsided and explore the issue of fees fully before you pay her anything.

I hired Ms. Marino at the beginning of my divorce case. She was all about the money and did not disclose a conflict of interest with the other attorney on the case even though I specifically asked her. She had a relationship with opposing counsel and was not out for the best interest of me and my children. I lost my home and paid over 17K dollars to her within the first 4 months of my case. She was completely unprofessional and unethical.
