Reviews
As a client of Mary McDaniel, I would highly recommend her (and have) to anyone in need of a family law attorney. I work with attorneys in a business capacity on an almost daily basis- I can share from my experience that she is a credit to the legal profession, while also being truly compassionate to her clients who are going through the stress and process of divorce. She is dedicated, always accessible, and is a true advocate. Her office staff is highly professional and competent. Her fees all in are more than reasonable when compared with other attorneys. I would recommend her for any family law, divorce, and collaborative divorce cases.
Mary McDaniel is very professional yet personable at the same time. I felt like I was working with a family member. Highly recommend!!
Mary and her staff were great to work with.I was very impressed with everyone’s attention to details. Myself, being self employed for over 35 years was impressed and really appreciated the “CUSTOMER SERVICE” given to me. Especially, it being a Law Firm. All phone calls were promptly returned. It was very important for me to fully understand the fees and billing cycle. Very detailed and easy to understand, and most important…. NO SURPRISES !!!!! Hire these people, you won’t regret it, and you will be pleased.
When it comes to your family, your children, and your home it means the world to have Mary McDaniel fighting on your team. Mary is consistent, responsive, and invested in the well-being of her clients. She is straight-forward and does not shy away from unique challenges or overwhelming circumstances. She creates a workable plan and method to achieve positive outcome for each situation. Mary is kind, tenacious and reliable, bringing her professional experience and personal integrity to each case. She connected me with qualified and professional resources to guarantee support for my family's needs. She is willing to collaborate and communicate. I am so very grateful for her assistance and advice. I highly recommend Mary McDaniel and MGM Law.
Mary McDaniel and co. did what others could not. Mary was the third lawyer retained and the only lawyer to get us through the dissolution of marriage. Mary's kind, clear and compassionate demeaner throughout the entire process was confidence inspiring and cut through those emotionally charged and frustrating moments when productive collaboration between parties was not an option. Divorce can be messy, complicated and frustrating - Save yourself some time and call her office before you call anyone else!
I was recommended from a friend to look at Mary G. McDaniel help in this legal matter. From the very beginning she was very knowledgeable of what my options were and she made the process very efficient and painless for me. With this past year with a world going through Covid-19 and now many legal proceedings using Zoom I feel that I had hired the best Attorney in town.
Professional and compassionate -- Mary, Carolyn & Taylor make an incredible team and they helped me through one of the most challenging times of my life. I am so grateful and highly recommend to anyone having to navigate through a divorce.
I hired Mary for a child custody case that was not typical in my mind and above my level of knowledge. Mary and her staff were prompt, professional, and explained things to me thoroughly throughout the case leading up to trial. Mary is kind and compassionate, but she also fought hard for me and it showed throughout my case. She thoroughly researched my case and background cases, and it showed on trial day. I honestly feel that my review doesn’t even begin to explain the level of gratitude I have for this firm...It’s so much more that’s what I just wrote. I would highly recommend Mary to anyone needing a family lawyer.
Unfortunately this wasn’t my first time having to retain a family law lawyer, and let me tell you, this by far was the best overall experience I had! Hiring Mary was the best decision I made, not only her but her assistant Taylor. They made me feel like as if my certain situation was personally happening to them. They kept me updated on EVERYTHING, walked me through every process, explained everything in detail so I could understand, and everything ran as smooth as it possibly could. With the current COVID pandemic and having to do it on videoconference she still killed it! She was very prepared and did her research and completely dominated and lead the whole time! She fights for her clients. Hopefully I don’t have to but I will hire her anytime, every time!!! THANK YOU MARY AND TAYLOR!!!!
Mary and her staff have been absolutely amazing through one of the roughest times of my life. Going through a custody case is terrifying and very stressful and Mary helped make it so much easier. She was compassionate and understands how you actually feel when going through things like this. She honestly gave me hope and made me feel like things were going to be okay. Mary is very driven, incredibly educated, and very understanding. If you need an attorney to fight your case she is the one you should go with. She won my case and I'm sure she could do the same for you.
