About

Hello, I am an attorney in the greater Bellevue/Seattle area. Prior to obtaining my Juris Doctor degree from Seattle University School of Law, I worked in many aspects of the Real Estate field. During my 15 year career in Real Estate, I underwrote loans for large and successful banks, as well as loans for private mortgage insurance companies. Because of my extensive knowledge as a Real Estate Underwriter, it was a seamless transition for me when I chose to become a licensed realtor. As a real estate agent, I negotiated contracts between buyers and sellers, and educated my borrowers before, during, and throughout the entire home buying process. As such, my chosen career path has served as a catalyst for my lifelong goal and passion of becoming an attorney with my primary focus in real estate law.My law firm, ‘Guidance to Justice, PLLC.’ speaks volumes toward my stance in law. I guide and assist consumers with loan modifications/mediation, wrongful foreclosures, short sale negotiation, debt negotiation, review of loan documentation pre/post-closing,  and finally, violation of civil rights. It is my goal and strong desire to give individuals a voice in the midst of the chaos while being treated in an unfair manner. Because I have experienced working in the real estate market at its lucrative height, at its all-time low, and everywhere in between, I am confident to call my knowledge in real estate law- keen and thorough.My strong belief is that knowledge is meant to be shared, not kept in secret. As such, I always strive to help individuals know their rights, understand their rights, and finally invoke their rights.Please, feel free to read and research my website for any questions or concerns you may have regarding your current real estate situation. I understand that no one circumstance is identical, therefore, feel free to contact my office via telephone or e-mail

Mary settled a very complicated case where I had invested money on a real estate flip. Her diligence and expertise settled my case completely in my favor and I honestly believe no other attorney could have done it better. Mary and her team are simply the best.

We hired Mary to assist in drafting a private mortgage contract and the related real estate transaction. Mary did an excellent job: detail oriented and professional in representing us as this matter between different members of our family. The quality of all communications was exemplary - common sense language for legal matters. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mary and her firm!

I felt depressed, defeated and all but knew that I had a personal injury case that could not be won. I felt that I had severely ruined any chance of coming out victorious on the other side of my unfortunate car accident because I sunk into such a dark place. My severe physical pain morphed into mental anguish and I would lie in bed with both physical and mental pain for days and weeks at at time. I simply could not bring myself to go to my doctor appointments as often as I wanted and frankly, needed to. The smartest decision I made during my horrific predicament was hiring Mary Anderson from Guidance To Justice Law Firm to fight for me! I had no idea that there are Lawyers out there that truly care for their client prior to meeting Mary. She literally took my hand, and the enormous weight off my shoulders as she guided me every step of the way. My case was a process, almost a journey; and every time I felt like giving up it was like I had an angel on my shoulders lifting up my spirits and renewing my determination to get what I deserved! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Mary! My case was won, and it is in very large part - because of you!! I would recommend Mary Anderson from Guidance to Justice Law Firm to absolutely ANYONE in the world, including my closest friends and family!!

My modification was originally approved, but was only a trial modification. I went through the trial period and the mortgage company sent the final modification to my bankruptcy attorney. I did not get it and of course did not sign it. The final mod. was rejected. Mary called several times and responded with an appeal. through her efforts it was eventually approved. Thanks Mary

Prior to hiring Mary Anderson, I searched for an attorney to take my case regarding settling a breach of contract involving real estate. It was a rather complicated case stemming from a domestic violence issue. I spoke with several attorneys prior to Mary and being that there was no written contract on the matter, no one was willing to help me. Mary Anderson was referred to me by another attorney who felt that she was diligent and was a good fit to help me with my problem. He was absolutely correct. Mary was reassuring, knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She navigated the legal system like a true professional and did an incredible job in helping me to win my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for the job. I highly recommend Mary Anderson.

We needed a fighter, and we got one in Mary Anderson of Guidance to Justice Law Firm. She is knowledgeable, capable and very dedicated to fair lending practices which keep people in their homes. Her integrity and confidence make it a whole new ball game. She doesn’t quit. We had a high interest home loan which eventually we could not keep up. We were being foreclosed on and had not made mortgage payments over the previous year. We had gone through mediation, which was a disaster, because we followed well-meaning but bad advice. When mediation failed, we filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to prevent foreclosure. The mortgage lender was appeased by the terms of the bankruptcy, but within a year we fell short of the full monthly bankruptcy payments. We faced the same fact that we faced when we struggled with the mortgage payments in years past: we simply were not making enough income to keep up. Our bankruptcy was dismissed and again we were on the brink of foreclosure. Our lawyer referred us to Mary Anderson. We knew we had a bad track record, but we believed that the lender had made a refinance arrangement impossible for us to meet, and that their intent was to foreclose and write us off, period. Mary dug in, had us provide detailed financial information, income, expenses, budget, etc. She negotiated with the lender over several months and succeeded in getting a temporary refinance agreement. We reviewed the terms and thought we would fail again. We were actually looking at affordable senior housing apartments when we met with Mary to consider the temporary refinance. We were tired and discouraged, we’d come to the point of finally letting go of our modest old house we’d occupied for over twenty years. Mary talked us off the ledge. “You can afford this!” she said. She had delivered on what we had set out to do, and she believed we could succeed. “Oh, yeah, they’re expecting you to fail,” she said, and that did it. We resolved to take it on. We did succeed at making regular payments for the three month trial period. We got a call from a new guy handling our loan, who was setting up the permanent loan modification. The loan package he sent was not the HAMP loan we had been promised. We had made another mistake by not immediately referring the new guy to negotiate directly with Mary. When we called her and said we didn’t like what was going on, she jumped right back into the fray. Because the lender no longer offered HAMP loans, they were offering something similar, but not as good. Mary negotiated, and when it looked rough, she initiated another mediation session. On the brink of our mediation date, the lender presented an acceptable loan modification. Mary had pressed the lender hard enough that they did not want to undergo a second mediation and possible subsequent legal complications. We get it that you’ve been fighting a long time. You’ve sought help; you’ve tried everything you could think of, and nothing has worked for long. Maybe, like us, you’ve made mistakes. You feel cornered by the fact that you have many months of unpaid mortgage payments. You feel insecure, afraid, anxious, even ashamed. Consult with Mary Anderson. Phone her office and make an appointment. Pull together your loan information and personal financial records and sit down with her to determine what can be done. From the start you will feel respected and heartened. Good luck!

After 4 years of trying to obtain a modification on my home loan which involved numerous modification packages submitted, 2 mediation meetings with the lender, and another lawyer, Mary was able to help me obtain a HAMP loan. I cannot express my indebtedness for Mary's ability to deal with the insidious methods of the banking institution. I had given up any hope of a resolution and had been told numerous times by many people (lawyers, financial people, real estate individuals) that my situation was helpless and to short sale my property. Mary was my last hope and she instilled the confidence that it was not a lost cause. I am so thankful for her professionalism, knowledge and ability to perform so successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation!

Fell behind on my home mortgage payments and in danger of losing my home. I had a very bad experience with the first lawyer I hired to assist me in getting a loan modification. Someone I trust recommended Mary. My situation was both complex and difficult. She was honest with me about the challenges but she was undaunted and knew what had to be done. I knew I was in very capable hands. Mary was able to negotiate a favorable loan modification, far better than I had hoped. I will be eternally grateful and would recommend Mary to anyone needing help with home mortgage problems!

I was extremely impressed with Mary Anderson for all the work she did on my bankruptcy. She was able to get all of my debt discharged. As a single parent, I fell behind in some bills and needed quick relief. I thought filing bankruptcy would be very intense and a long process. However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.

I cannot express my indebtedness for Mary's ability to deal with the insidious methods of the banking institution. I had given up any hope of a resolution and had been told numerous times by many people (lawyers, financial people, real estate individuals) that my situation was helpless and to short sale my property. Mary was my last hope and she instilled the confidence that it was not a lost cause. I am so thankful for her professionalism, knowledge and ability to perform so successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation!

Fell behind on my home mortgage payments and in danger of losing my home. I had a very bad experience with the first lawyer I hired to assist me in getting a loan modification. Someone I trust recommended Mary. My situation was both complex and difficult. She was honest with me about the challenges but she was undaunted and knew what had to be done. I knew I was in very capable hands. Mary was able to negotiate a favorable loan modification, far better than I had hoped. I will be eternally grateful and would recommend Mary to anyone needing help with home mortgage problems!

I was extremely impressed with Mary Anderson for all the work she did on my bankruptcy. She was able to get all of my debt discharged. As a single parent, I fell behind in some bills and needed quick relief. I thought filing bankruptcy would be very intense and a long process. However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.

Mary settled a very complicated case where I had invested money on a real estate flip. Her diligence and expertise settled my case completely in my favor and I honestly believe no other attorney could have done it better. Mary and her team are simply the best.

We hired Mary to assist in drafting a private mortgage contract and the related real estate transaction. Mary did an excellent job: detail oriented and professional in representing us as this matter between different members of our family. The quality of all communications was exemplary - common sense language for legal matters. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mary and her firm!

I felt depressed, defeated and all but knew that I had a personal injury case that could not be won. I felt that I had severely ruined any chance of coming out victorious on the other side of my unfortunate car accident because I sunk into such a dark place. My severe physical pain morphed into mental anguish and I would lie in bed with both physical and mental pain for days and weeks at at time. I simply could not bring myself to go to my doctor appointments as often as I wanted and frankly, needed to. The smartest decision I made during my horrific predicament was hiring Mary Anderson from Guidance To Justice Law Firm to fight for me! I had no idea that there are Lawyers out there that truly care for their client prior to meeting Mary. She literally took my hand, and the enormous weight off my shoulders as she guided me every step of the way. My case was a process, almost a journey; and every time I felt like giving up it was like I had an angel on my shoulders lifting up my spirits and renewing my determination to get what I deserved! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Mary! My case was won, and it is in very large part - because of you!! I would recommend Mary Anderson from Guidance to Justice Law Firm to absolutely ANYONE in the world, including my closest friends and family!!

My modification was originally approved, but was only a trial modification. I went through the trial period and the mortgage company sent the final modification to my bankruptcy attorney. I did not get it and of course did not sign it. The final mod. was rejected. Mary called several times and responded with an appeal. through her efforts it was eventually approved. Thanks Mary

Prior to hiring Mary Anderson, I searched for an attorney to take my case regarding settling a breach of contract involving real estate. It was a rather complicated case stemming from a domestic violence issue. I spoke with several attorneys prior to Mary and being that there was no written contract on the matter, no one was willing to help me. Mary Anderson was referred to me by another attorney who felt that she was diligent and was a good fit to help me with my problem. He was absolutely correct. Mary was reassuring, knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She navigated the legal system like a true professional and did an incredible job in helping me to win my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for the job. I highly recommend Mary Anderson.

We needed a fighter, and we got one in Mary Anderson of Guidance to Justice Law Firm. She is knowledgeable, capable and very dedicated to fair lending practices which keep people in their homes. Her integrity and confidence make it a whole new ball game. She doesn’t quit. We had a high interest home loan which eventually we could not keep up. We were being foreclosed on and had not made mortgage payments over the previous year. We had gone through mediation, which was a disaster, because we followed well-meaning but bad advice. When mediation failed, we filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to prevent foreclosure. The mortgage lender was appeased by the terms of the bankruptcy, but within a year we fell short of the full monthly bankruptcy payments. We faced the same fact that we faced when we struggled with the mortgage payments in years past: we simply were not making enough income to keep up. Our bankruptcy was dismissed and again we were on the brink of foreclosure. Our lawyer referred us to Mary Anderson. We knew we had a bad track record, but we believed that the lender had made a refinance arrangement impossible for us to meet, and that their intent was to foreclose and write us off, period. Mary dug in, had us provide detailed financial information, income, expenses, budget, etc. She negotiated with the lender over several months and succeeded in getting a temporary refinance agreement. We reviewed the terms and thought we would fail again. We were actually looking at affordable senior housing apartments when we met with Mary to consider the temporary refinance. We were tired and discouraged, we’d come to the point of finally letting go of our modest old house we’d occupied for over twenty years. Mary talked us off the ledge. “You can afford this!” she said. She had delivered on what we had set out to do, and she believed we could succeed. “Oh, yeah, they’re expecting you to fail,” she said, and that did it. We resolved to take it on. We did succeed at making regular payments for the three month trial period. We got a call from a new guy handling our loan, who was setting up the permanent loan modification. The loan package he sent was not the HAMP loan we had been promised. We had made another mistake by not immediately referring the new guy to negotiate directly with Mary. When we called her and said we didn’t like what was going on, she jumped right back into the fray. Because the lender no longer offered HAMP loans, they were offering something similar, but not as good. Mary negotiated, and when it looked rough, she initiated another mediation session. On the brink of our mediation date, the lender presented an acceptable loan modification. Mary had pressed the lender hard enough that they did not want to undergo a second mediation and possible subsequent legal complications. We get it that you’ve been fighting a long time. You’ve sought help; you’ve tried everything you could think of, and nothing has worked for long. Maybe, like us, you’ve made mistakes. You feel cornered by the fact that you have many months of unpaid mortgage payments. You feel insecure, afraid, anxious, even ashamed. Consult with Mary Anderson. Phone her office and make an appointment. Pull together your loan information and personal financial records and sit down with her to determine what can be done. From the start you will feel respected and heartened. Good luck!

Mary was my last hope and she instilled the confidence that it was not a lost cause. I am so thankful for her professionalism, knowledge and ability to perform so successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation!

Fell behind on my home mortgage payments and in danger of losing my home. I had a very bad experience with the first lawyer I hired to assist me in getting a loan modification. Someone I trust recommended Mary. My situation was both complex and difficult. She was honest with me about the challenges but she was undaunted and knew what had to be done. I knew I was in very capable hands. Mary was able to negotiate a favorable loan modification, far better than I had hoped. I will be eternally grateful and would recommend Mary to anyone needing help with home mortgage problems!

I was extremely impressed with Mary Anderson for all the work she did on my bankruptcy. She was able to get all of my debt discharged. As a single parent, I fell behind in some bills and needed quick relief. I thought filing bankruptcy would be very intense and a long process. However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.

Mary settled a very complicated case where I had invested money on a real estate flip. Her diligence and expertise settled my case completely in my favor and I honestly believe no other attorney could have done it better. Mary and her team are simply the best.

We hired Mary to assist in drafting a private mortgage contract and the related real estate transaction. Mary did an excellent job: detail oriented and professional in representing us as this matter between different members of our family. The quality of all communications was exemplary - common sense language for legal matters. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mary and her firm!

I felt depressed, defeated and all but knew that I had a personal injury case that could not be won. I felt that I had severely ruined any chance of coming out victorious on the other side of my unfortunate car accident because I sunk into such a dark place. My severe physical pain morphed into mental anguish and I would lie in bed with both physical and mental pain for days and weeks at at time. I simply could not bring myself to go to my doctor appointments as often as I wanted and frankly, needed to. The smartest decision I made during my horrific predicament was hiring Mary Anderson from Guidance To Justice Law Firm to fight for me! I had no idea that there are Lawyers out there that truly care for their client prior to meeting Mary. She literally took my hand, and the enormous weight off my shoulders as she guided me every step of the way. My case was a process, almost a journey; and every time I felt like giving up it was like I had an angel on my shoulders lifting up my spirits and renewing my determination to get what I deserved! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Mary! My case was won, and it is in very large part - because of you!! I would recommend Mary Anderson from Guidance to Justice Law Firm to absolutely ANYONE in the world, including my closest friends and family!!

My modification was originally approved, but was only a trial modification. I went through the trial period and the mortgage company sent the final modification to my bankruptcy attorney. I did not get it and of course did not sign it. The final mod. was rejected. Mary called several times and responded with an appeal. through her efforts it was eventually approved. Thanks Mary

Prior to hiring Mary Anderson, I searched for an attorney to take my case regarding settling a breach of contract involving real estate. It was a rather complicated case stemming from a domestic violence issue. I spoke with several attorneys prior to Mary and being that there was no written contract on the matter, no one was willing to help me. Mary Anderson was referred to me by another attorney who felt that she was diligent and was a good fit to help me with my problem. He was absolutely correct. Mary was reassuring, knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She navigated the legal system like a true professional and did an incredible job in helping me to win my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for the job. I highly recommend Mary Anderson.

We needed a fighter, and we got one in Mary Anderson of Guidance to Justice Law Firm. She is knowledgeable, capable and very dedicated to fair lending practices which keep people in their homes. Her integrity and confidence make it a whole new ball game. She doesn’t quit. We had a high interest home loan which eventually we could not keep up. We were being foreclosed on and had not made mortgage payments over the previous year. We had gone through mediation, which was a disaster, because we followed well-meaning but bad advice. When mediation failed, we filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to prevent foreclosure. The mortgage lender was appeased by the terms of the bankruptcy, but within a year we fell short of the full monthly bankruptcy payments. We faced the same fact that we faced when we struggled with the mortgage payments in years past: we simply were not making enough income to keep up. Our bankruptcy was dismissed and again we were on the brink of foreclosure. Our lawyer referred us to Mary Anderson. We knew we had a bad track record, but we believed that the lender had made a refinance arrangement impossible for us to meet, and that their intent was to foreclose and write us off, period. Mary dug in, had us provide detailed financial information, income, expenses, budget, etc. She negotiated with the lender over several months and succeeded in getting a temporary refinance agreement. We reviewed the terms and thought we would fail again. We were actually looking at affordable senior housing apartments when we met with Mary to consider the temporary refinance. We were tired and discouraged, we’d come to the point of finally letting go of our modest old house we’d occupied for over twenty years. Mary talked us off the ledge. “You can afford this!” she said. She had delivered on what we had set out to do, and she believed we could succeed. “Oh, yeah, they’re expecting you to fail,” she said, and that did it. We resolved to take it on. We did succeed at making regular payments for the three month trial period. We got a call from a new guy handling our loan, who was setting up the permanent loan modification. The loan package he sent was not the HAMP loan we had been promised. We had made another mistake by not immediately referring the new guy to negotiate directly with Mary. When we called her and said we didn’t like what was going on, she jumped right back into the fray. Because the lender no longer offered HAMP loans, they were offering something similar, but not as good. Mary negotiated, and when it looked rough, she initiated another mediation session. On the brink of our mediation date, the lender presented an acceptable loan modification. Mary had pressed the lender hard enough that they did not want to undergo a second mediation and possible subsequent legal complications. We get it that you’ve been fighting a long time. You’ve sought help; you’ve tried everything you could think of, and nothing has worked for long. Maybe, like us, you’ve made mistakes. You feel cornered by the fact that you have many months of unpaid mortgage payments. You feel insecure, afraid, anxious, even ashamed. Consult with Mary Anderson. Phone her office and make an appointment. Pull together your loan information and personal financial records and sit down with her to determine what can be done. From the start you will feel respected and heartened. Good luck!

Fell behind on my home mortgage payments and in danger of losing my home. I had a very bad experience with the first lawyer I hired to assist me in getting a loan modification. Someone I trust recommended Mary. My situation was both complex and difficult. She was honest with me about the challenges but she was undaunted and knew what had to be done. I knew I was in very capable hands. Mary was able to negotiate a favorable loan modification, far better than I had hoped. I will be eternally grateful and would recommend Mary to anyone needing help with home mortgage problems!

I was extremely impressed with Mary Anderson for all the work she did on my bankruptcy. She was able to get all of my debt discharged. As a single parent, I fell behind in some bills and needed quick relief. I thought filing bankruptcy would be very intense and a long process. However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.

Mary settled a very complicated case where I had invested money on a real estate flip. Her diligence and expertise settled my case completely in my favor and I honestly believe no other attorney could have done it better. Mary and her team are simply the best.

We hired Mary to assist in drafting a private mortgage contract and the related real estate transaction. Mary did an excellent job: detail oriented and professional in representing us as this matter between different members of our family. The quality of all communications was exemplary - common sense language for legal matters. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mary and her firm!

I felt depressed, defeated and all but knew that I had a personal injury case that could not be won. I felt that I had severely ruined any chance of coming out victorious on the other side of my unfortunate car accident because I sunk into such a dark place. My severe physical pain morphed into mental anguish and I would lie in bed with both physical and mental pain for days and weeks at at time. I simply could not bring myself to go to my doctor appointments as often as I wanted and frankly, needed to. The smartest decision I made during my horrific predicament was hiring Mary Anderson from Guidance To Justice Law Firm to fight for me! I had no idea that there are Lawyers out there that truly care for their client prior to meeting Mary. She literally took my hand, and the enormous weight off my shoulders as she guided me every step of the way. My case was a process, almost a journey; and every time I felt like giving up it was like I had an angel on my shoulders lifting up my spirits and renewing my determination to get what I deserved! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Mary! My case was won, and it is in very large part - because of you!! I would recommend Mary Anderson from Guidance to Justice Law Firm to absolutely ANYONE in the world, including my closest friends and family!!

My modification was originally approved, but was only a trial modification. I went through the trial period and the mortgage company sent the final modification to my bankruptcy attorney. I did not get it and of course did not sign it. The final mod. was rejected. Mary called several times and responded with an appeal. through her efforts it was eventually approved. Thanks Mary

Prior to hiring Mary Anderson, I searched for an attorney to take my case regarding settling a breach of contract involving real estate. It was a rather complicated case stemming from a domestic violence issue. I spoke with several attorneys prior to Mary and being that there was no written contract on the matter, no one was willing to help me. Mary Anderson was referred to me by another attorney who felt that she was diligent and was a good fit to help me with my problem. He was absolutely correct. Mary was reassuring, knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She navigated the legal system like a true professional and did an incredible job in helping me to win my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for the job. I highly recommend Mary Anderson.

We needed a fighter, and we got one in Mary Anderson of Guidance to Justice Law Firm. She is knowledgeable, capable and very dedicated to fair lending practices which keep people in their homes. Her integrity and confidence make it a whole new ball game. She doesn’t quit. We had a high interest home loan which eventually we could not keep up. We were being foreclosed on and had not made mortgage payments over the previous year. We had gone through mediation, which was a disaster, because we followed well-meaning but bad advice. When mediation failed, we filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to prevent foreclosure. The mortgage lender was appeased by the terms of the bankruptcy, but within a year we fell short of the full monthly bankruptcy payments. We faced the same fact that we faced when we struggled with the mortgage payments in years past: we simply were not making enough income to keep up. Our bankruptcy was dismissed and again we were on the brink of foreclosure. Our lawyer referred us to Mary Anderson. We knew we had a bad track record, but we believed that the lender had made a refinance arrangement impossible for us to meet, and that their intent was to foreclose and write us off, period. Mary dug in, had us provide detailed financial information, income, expenses, budget, etc. She negotiated with the lender over several months and succeeded in getting a temporary refinance agreement. We reviewed the terms and thought we would fail again. We were actually looking at affordable senior housing apartments when we met with Mary to consider the temporary refinance. We were tired and discouraged, we’d come to the point of finally letting go of our modest old house we’d occupied for over twenty years. Mary talked us off the ledge. “You can afford this!” she said. She had delivered on what we had set out to do, and she believed we could succeed. “Oh, yeah, they’re expecting you to fail,” she said, and that did it. We resolved to take it on. We did succeed at making regular payments for the three month trial period. We got a call from a new guy handling our loan, who was setting up the permanent loan modification. The loan package he sent was not the HAMP loan we had been promised. We had made another mistake by not immediately referring the new guy to negotiate directly with Mary. When we called her and said we didn’t like what was going on, she jumped right back into the fray. Because the lender no longer offered HAMP loans, they were offering something similar, but not as good. Mary negotiated, and when it looked rough, she initiated another mediation session. On the brink of our mediation date, the lender presented an acceptable loan modification. Mary had pressed the lender hard enough that they did not want to undergo a second mediation and possible subsequent legal complications. We get it that you’ve been fighting a long time. You’ve sought help; you’ve tried everything you could think of, and nothing has worked for long. Maybe, like us, you’ve made mistakes. You feel cornered by the fact that you have many months of unpaid mortgage payments. You feel insecure, afraid, anxious, even ashamed. Consult with Mary Anderson. Phone her office and make an appointment. Pull together your loan information and personal financial records and sit down with her to determine what can be done. From the start you will feel respected and heartened. Good luck!

After 4 years of trying to obtain a modification on my home loan which involved numerous modification packages submitted, 2 mediation meetings with the lender, and another lawyer, Mary was able to help me obtain a HAMP loan. I cannot express my indebtedness for Mary's ability to deal with the insidious methods of the banking institution. I had given up any hope of a resolution and had been told numerous times by many people (lawyers, financial people, real estate individuals) that my situation was helpless and to short sale my property. Mary was my last hope and she instilled the confidence that it was not a lost cause. I am so thankful for her professionalism, knowledge and ability to perform so successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation!

I was extremely impressed with Mary Anderson for all the work she did on my bankruptcy. She was able to get all of my debt discharged. As a single parent, I fell behind in some bills and needed quick relief. I thought filing bankruptcy would be very intense and a long process. However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.

Mary settled a very complicated case where I had invested money on a real estate flip. Her diligence and expertise settled my case completely in my favor and I honestly believe no other attorney could have done it better. Mary and her team are simply the best.

We hired Mary to assist in drafting a private mortgage contract and the related real estate transaction. Mary did an excellent job: detail oriented and professional in representing us as this matter between different members of our family. The quality of all communications was exemplary - common sense language for legal matters. We can wholeheartedly recommend Mary and her firm!

I felt depressed, defeated and all but knew that I had a personal injury case that could not be won. I felt that I had severely ruined any chance of coming out victorious on the other side of my unfortunate car accident because I sunk into such a dark place. My severe physical pain morphed into mental anguish and I would lie in bed with both physical and mental pain for days and weeks at at time. I simply could not bring myself to go to my doctor appointments as often as I wanted and frankly, needed to. The smartest decision I made during my horrific predicament was hiring Mary Anderson from Guidance To Justice Law Firm to fight for me! I had no idea that there are Lawyers out there that truly care for their client prior to meeting Mary. She literally took my hand, and the enormous weight off my shoulders as she guided me every step of the way. My case was a process, almost a journey; and every time I felt like giving up it was like I had an angel on my shoulders lifting up my spirits and renewing my determination to get what I deserved! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Mary! My case was won, and it is in very large part - because of you!! I would recommend Mary Anderson from Guidance to Justice Law Firm to absolutely ANYONE in the world, including my closest friends and family!!

My modification was originally approved, but was only a trial modification. I went through the trial period and the mortgage company sent the final modification to my bankruptcy attorney. I did not get it and of course did not sign it. The final mod. was rejected. Mary called several times and responded with an appeal. through her efforts it was eventually approved. Thanks Mary

Prior to hiring Mary Anderson, I searched for an attorney to take my case regarding settling a breach of contract involving real estate. It was a rather complicated case stemming from a domestic violence issue. I spoke with several attorneys prior to Mary and being that there was no written contract on the matter, no one was willing to help me. Mary Anderson was referred to me by another attorney who felt that she was diligent and was a good fit to help me with my problem. He was absolutely correct. Mary was reassuring, knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She navigated the legal system like a true professional and did an incredible job in helping me to win my case. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for the job. I highly recommend Mary Anderson.

We needed a fighter, and we got one in Mary Anderson of Guidance to Justice Law Firm. She is knowledgeable, capable and very dedicated to fair lending practices which keep people in their homes. Her integrity and confidence make it a whole new ball game. She doesn’t quit. We had a high interest home loan which eventually we could not keep up. We were being foreclosed on and had not made mortgage payments over the previous year. We had gone through mediation, which was a disaster, because we followed well-meaning but bad advice. When mediation failed, we filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to prevent foreclosure. The mortgage lender was appeased by the terms of the bankruptcy, but within a year we fell short of the full monthly bankruptcy payments. We faced the same fact that we faced when we struggled with the mortgage payments in years past: we simply were not making enough income to keep up. Our bankruptcy was dismissed and again we were on the brink of foreclosure. Our lawyer referred us to Mary Anderson. We knew we had a bad track record, but we believed that the lender had made a refinance arrangement impossible for us to meet, and that their intent was to foreclose and write us off, period. Mary dug in, had us provide detailed financial information, income, expenses, budget, etc. She negotiated with the lender over several months and succeeded in getting a temporary refinance agreement. We reviewed the terms and thought we would fail again. We were actually looking at affordable senior housing apartments when we met with Mary to consider the temporary refinance. We were tired and discouraged, we’d come to the point of finally letting go of our modest old house we’d occupied for over twenty years. Mary talked us off the ledge. “You can afford this!” she said. She had delivered on what we had set out to do, and she believed we could succeed. “Oh, yeah, they’re expecting you to fail,” she said, and that did it. We resolved to take it on. We did succeed at making regular payments for the three month trial period. We got a call from a new guy handling our loan, who was setting up the permanent loan modification. The loan package he sent was not the HAMP loan we had been promised. We had made another mistake by not immediately referring the new guy to negotiate directly with Mary. When we called her and said we didn’t like what was going on, she jumped right back into the fray. Because the lender no longer offered HAMP loans, they were offering something similar, but not as good. Mary negotiated, and when it looked rough, she initiated another mediation session. On the brink of our mediation date, the lender presented an acceptable loan modification. Mary had pressed the lender hard enough that they did not want to undergo a second mediation and possible subsequent legal complications. We get it that you’ve been fighting a long time. You’ve sought help; you’ve tried everything you could think of, and nothing has worked for long. Maybe, like us, you’ve made mistakes. You feel cornered by the fact that you have many months of unpaid mortgage payments. You feel insecure, afraid, anxious, even ashamed. Consult with Mary Anderson. Phone her office and make an appointment. Pull together your loan information and personal financial records and sit down with her to determine what can be done. From the start you will feel respected and heartened. Good luck!

After 4 years of trying to obtain a modification on my home loan which involved numerous modification packages submitted, 2 mediation meetings with the lender, and another lawyer, Mary was able to help me obtain a HAMP loan. I cannot express my indebtedness for Mary's ability to deal with the insidious methods of the banking institution. I had given up any hope of a resolution and had been told numerous times by many people (lawyers, financial people, real estate individuals) that my situation was helpless and to short sale my property. Mary was my last hope and she instilled the confidence that it was not a lost cause. I am so thankful for her professionalism, knowledge and ability to perform so successfully. I highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation!

However, there was not a lot of back and forth since Mary was very thorough and precise with her directions making it easy for me to comply. I recommend Mary for anyone who is thinking about filing bankruptcy. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done the fist time around, Mary is your answer. I thank her for a job well done.
