There is not enough review space available for me to praise Mary Louise. She is an amazing person and incredible attorney. The fate of our family was in her hands and ultimately, we could not be happier with the outcome. She immediately immersed herself into our narrative. She was highly attentive and detail-oriented. It is worth mentioning separately that Mary Louise is very, very sharp-witted. This is not something one learns but it is innate. She is intuitive when it comes to reading others and their intentions. She was thoughtful in every decision and methodical in her approach. She worked tirelessly to address all downstream possibilities in a preemptive fashion. She was exceedingly responsive and efficient with time. She kept me updated on all movements of the case the moment shifts would occur. She is genuine and has a heart for those involved. She listens late at night. Most importantly, Mary Louise has the highest moral/ethical standards. I never had to wonder if our path was in the right. She handled our case with class, professionalism, energy, empathy and commitment. Mary Louise is the representation you want navigating through the most difficult of times. One would be remiss to look any further. She is the very best.

Mary Louise is a fantastic divorce attorney that guided me from start to finish through the most difficult experience of my life. From the moment I met her at the initial consultation, I felt her compassion and professionalism. She guided me efficiently and confidently to an amazing outcome for my entire family. The process was highly collaborative, leveraging her deep legal expertise and my insight to formulate an effective approach. I was amazed by her attention to detail, preparation and execution during the deposition and mediation. Mary Louise was able to quickly recall the detailed background I initially provided to effectively navigate issues and reach closure. She efficiently processed new information throughout the entire divorce process and offered insightful recommendations to the decisions I faced. I always felt safe and powerful in her company during the times when there was conflict. Having someone like Mary Louise by your side through a divorce process is priceless. She is a unique lawyer - someone with deep legal acumen and an understanding of relationships and family dynamics. I admire her spirit, ethics and professionalism to reach an outcome that was in the best interests of my children and me. The best in the business - highly recommended!

Mary Louise Phelps surpassed any expectations I had for my divorce attorney. Going through the proceedings was a very scary ordeal for me being that it involved money, businesses, and most importantly my two children. I was very nervous about being in the wrong hands. She by far did not disappoint though! I knew after my first meeting with her that it was going to be the right fit. She was there for me any time of the day, and truly had mine and my kids best interest at heart. Mary Louise is an incredibly organized person which was crucial for such a complex divorce such as mine. She was ALWAYS prepared for court, was two steps ahead on everything, and was ready for the unexpected at any time. She is very knowledgeable on the law and helped walk me through each step of the proceedings. From mediation to court, she always came overly prepared. She has a heart of gold but also the bravado in court that demands respect. Her ethics & morals are top notch which was something I highly desired from my legal counsel. My divorce was now final over a year ago - and she still keeps in frequent contact with us. She checks in on us and is always rooting for me and my life. I would highly recommend Mary Louise Phelps to anyone who is looking for an attorney that will take your case seriously and will fight for what is right!

Mary Louise Phelps is an amazing attorney! She is extremely intelligent, efficient and highly effective. I dealt with several attorneys in her field in more than one state and find that she stood out above the rest. She gets the job done even better than you can anticipate because she works hard to address every detail and ones you were not even anticipating. She also is so rare in her being available and taking the time to answer your questions while walking you through some of the most difficult situations. I've not met another attorney like her and consider myself lucky to have found her. I've recommended friends and family to her as this is the attorney you want on your team!

Mary Louise Phelps went above and beyond what an attorney is expected to do. During the most difficult time in my life, the professionalism and kindness she showed was endless. Whether it was during office hours or after, she was always available and willing to listen and answer my questions. Divorce is a difficult process and having an advocate for my future was extremely important to me. I would highly recommend Mary Louise and her team for any of your marital legal needs.

There is so much I can say about Mary Louise as an attorney. She is extremely bright, knowledgeable, gets things done, confident, a problem solver and overall gets five stars as a family law attorney. I had an extremely contentious divorce with my husband which she navigated through beautifully to obtain an amazing outcome. She is truly one of the greats. I have the utmost respect and admiration for her. A winner and a positive influence in my life.

Mary Louise is now one of the family - we had a very difficult divorce to include complex property/investment settlements, enforcements, custody, etc. Mary Louise responded with highly proactive, effective/efficient counseling. ML was tenacious and seemed to have an inherent need to leave no stone unturned. Regardless of the task, she was steadfast, never wavering from honesty, clear logic and creativity. Not only is she extremely intelligent, she is a compassionate, caring individual, and possesses an innate ability to induce reliance through effective communication and listening skills, thus affording us a highly collaborative effort. An attorney that communicated regularly and was always available when we thought we needed her…Mary Louise is the attorney you wish you had found first! We did and are thankful for it.

Mary Louise Phelps is a great attorney. Aside from being extremely bright, she is creative. Whenever we were faced with a stonewall situation, which was often in my case, she figured out a way to make things work so that I got what I needed and the other party felt like they did as well. She's also kind and understanding. She has great instincts and knows when to push and when to wait, and when to ask for assistance. I cannot recommend her more hightly.

Mary Louise Phelps was the best combination of all essential parts that a client wants in an attorney. Not only is she very smart, but also hardworking, committed, compassionate and honest. I had not had this experience with other attorneys and found her too good to be true. She is also fair in that she presented all options on decisions important to me and ultimately supported my personal choices balanced with her professional expertise. I cannot think of anyone who "wants" attorney services. When you "need" an attorney, you should fight hard to hire her.

Unfortunately for me this was my second divorce with many complex factions such as a very large wage gap and business interests. Fortunately for me, I had Mary Louise as my attorney! She patiently guided me with extreme precision and conscientiousness. What I perceived as a very complex case was made very simple by her knowledge of process and communication there of. She helped allow me peace of mind knowing that I had someone of her caliber on my side.

Mary Louise is a very good and caring Divorce attorney. My divorce was a very tough and crazy one dealing with an unruly wife but she did everything she could to help me through a difficult time. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone, you would be foolish not to have her represent you. When you hire Mary Louise you will get first class representation and a lawyer that will go to bat for you. She will have nothing but your best interests at heart, she really cares and it shows in her representation of your case. Don't think twice about having her on your side. There really aren't words for me to express how happy I am with her and how my divorce turned out. Truly a first class lady and attorney.
