CLIENT REVIEWS

I Definitely would recommend Marissa

Marissa and her legal assistant Sandy were great! After seeking a divorce from a different attorney, which ultimately gave up on me after realizing the amount of work that would be needed, they got the job done! They found my now ex-wife after not knowing her whereabouts for the past 15 or so years. I definitely would recommend Marissa and her office to represent anyone seeking legal assistance in family law!

She Was Professional and Kept Me Informed

My divorce attorney was Marissa A. Del Mauro. She was professional and kept me informed of the process which lasted about 10 months. I kept my house and alimony to my ex is manageable. Her assistant was skilled and prompt. I really felt that the Lyons & Associates team protected my interests, for example, my ex wanted 8 years of alimony on a 11 year marriage. This was reduced to 5 years. After my divorce was finalized, Lyons also reduced by outstanding legal bill by 30%. Would not hesitate to recommend Lyons to anyone.

Extremely Helpful

Lyons and Associates were extremely helpful to me in my legal matter. They were prompt, thorough, and I felt as though they really cared about my needs. Their rates were fair and comparable to others I had researched. I would highly recommend this firm.
