If you happen to find yourself in a situation where you need a public defender in Livingston County; Samantha Maguire is, hands down, the solution to your problems. She is highly educated and the very best at her job, and, by far, surpasses her calls of duty! She stays on top of things, and walks you through whatever it is you have to go through, every step of the way, so that you are not walking into anything blindly, nor are you doing anything alone. She will do whatever it takes to get you the most favorable outcome possible. To top it off, she’s an amazing woman that genuinely cares about her clients, and proves that in her actions. She will go to bat and fight your fight for you! If I was in a position where I had to personally pay for an attorney, I would choose her, every time! She is so much more than an attorney, but if that’s what you’re needing, look no further.

Let me just start out by saying no one wants a public defender but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Samantha Maguire was great! She really worked hard on my case and investigated it like it should have been done. She acted like I paid her personally. She fought for me. She was extremely personable easy to talk to, and great person to work with. She was my bulldog!!! From the moment I got the 1st phone call from her I knew everything was going to be OK. I am extremely happy with the outcome. Thank you so much!! Samantha maguire you should start your own Lawfirm!!!

Represented me for family court matters.
Was responsible for filing support and custody order(s) by the county court judge.
Filed custody order. I was the respondent, however, the paperwork he filed for me indicated I was the petitioner. Paperwork shows that both the respondent and petitioner are both petitioners and no respondent is noted. This makes the document non enforceable. I have asked for him to correct.
Have made attempts to contact to correct for six months, no contact by his office.
This lawyer never filed custody orders. He started them but never finished them.
I was billed for custody orders which were never filed or completed.
I have emailed, stopped in at office, sent letters and left messages with his secretary to have him please address. I have been asking about the custody paperwork for over one year. This office will not respond to requests.
I am back in court with another lawyer for support since none was ever filed by this office. Court transcripts with this lawyer clearly stating he will file custody and support orders has been printed and given to the attorney. He has declined to respond.
I cannot recommend him at this point. I see no reason for this office not to take responsibility for what they have or haven't done.
I am having to pay another attorney for what this lawyer has already been paid to do and has not.
