She was the victim of a municipal "Regulatory Taking" action on her law office property. She fought the township and maintains ownership of her property to this day. Additionaly, she was the intended victim of a "Bad Faith" malpractice action. During litigation, Maria uncovered that an insurance company's attorney assigned to her case had lied about facts in order to indicate Maria as being liable when she was not. This act of deception was an attempt to compel Maria's insurance provider to pay a settlement fee unnecessarily. Upon Maria's revealing the offending attorneys guilt, his firm agreed to pay the settlement cost in order to avoid defensive litigation.
Maria adds; "I once had a client say to me.."I think you fought harder for me and did not give up because you had experienced and fought your own legal injustices over the years." The reality is, our legal system is flawed, litigation is expensive, and there is no promise of achieving the complete desired result. Regardless, no attorney should take advantage of any client. You can trust me.
