I have a 24 year old special needs son that had lived primarily with his mother for ten years. Each year, the quality of care declined, then she took my son out of state and hid him from me. I hired Ms. Allard Smith to get a conservatorship while my child was out of state. Then the x-wife filed for and was granted a guardianship in the other state. Being a male, the non custodial parent and having a child under guardianship in another State, the odds were stacked against us. The opposing counsel basically told us not to even bother showing up at court, because their case was a slam dunk. With Ms. Allard-Smith's guidance, the case has been totally turned around. Mara's 20+ years as a prosecutor and probate attorney showed. She delivered an impassioned closing statement at a recent hearing that clearly blew away the opposing counsel. She focused on the important facts and did not get drawn into the distracting minutia which is common in such emotional family type matters. I have a highly excitable personality and Ms. Smith even protected me from making impulsive mistakes. I totally trust her as an attorney and would recommend her to anyone needed probate work.
