Marjorie is straight forward and honest; providing me with the utmost professional services in very difficult circumstances. She conveyed appropriate empathy, and took time to learn details about the intricacies and complexities of my situation. Marjorie was always fully prepared and consistently went beyond expectations to ensure that my needs were met at each phase of the process. When I had questions, she promptly answered either by email or phone, as appropriate. I have referred others to her, who were also completely satisfied with her skills. I will continue to do so, as I believe she is stellar in her profession.
She is intimidating, which is why I came to her. Not super easy to reach, but staff is always there to help. Bottom line, she is whip smart, extremely confident and when we go before a judge, even if it's only a scheduling hearing, I am really glad she's my lawyer. She doesn't have to be a snake in order to deal with them. Don't cry in front of her, though. And tread lightly. Marjorie has you covered, as long as you hold yourself to the same ethical standards that she and the law firm hold for themselves. I definitely trust her. Marjorie has a lot of integrity and won't hesitate to kick your butt into the best direction. She doesn't coddle, so I am curious to see how this all plays out. Strong women are my favorite people to be around. As someone I know told me, "She's a spitfire." Shows no fear and I am thoroughly impressed with her ability, skill and knowledge of family law.

Hi It was truly a blessing when a friend of mine recommended that i see Marjorie to help me with my divorce. Marjorie is the entire package: she is calming, comforting, nice, smart, professional, logistical and always has a smile on her face. I really appreciated that she was able to give me great "real time" advice when trying to make difficult decisions. One other important quality that Marjorie has is that she was very responsive to answering my questions or concerns. I have since gone on to use Marjorie to help me get my estate papers in order this past spring. I had read how cumbersome that process could be but it was effortlessly working with Marjorie.
Marjorie was excellent in the sense that she listened to everything. Often we feel that people aren't hearing us because they are too focused on what they want to say opposed to listening to what we have to say - I didn't have this feel about Marjorie at all.
Marjorie is an expert in Domestic Relations law and moves with ease through the judicial process. She appeared to be well respected by the Masters and Judges.
I have great admiration for Mrs. DiLima and the legal work she's done on my behalf. Mrs. DiLima handled a divorce case for me and I was very pleased with the settlement she negotiated. My ex-wife wasn't the most cooperative during our negotiations which put a heavier burden on Mrs. DiLima to negotiate a fair settlement. There was property to handle, custody and visitation of our two minor children, investments, and my pending retirement. Of course you heard or seen it before. My ex wanted everything. Mrs. DiLima agressively pursued what was in the best interest for not only me, but my two minor children. I have to say I am blessed to have the outcome in which Mrs. DiLima negotiatied. Mrs DiLima was responsive to my needs and readily accessible whenever I needed to call on her. I have refered Mrs. DiLima to numerous friends and aquaintances who have all related to me they have been very pleased with her services. I sincerely hope that I won't need legal representation in the future, however, if I do I will be knocking on Mrs. Dilima's door.
