She went above and beyond for me
I couldn’t be happier with MC as my attorney! She represented me in a criminal case and at the same time represented me in a custody case. At our first meeting, I felt seen and heard finally. I knew I had someone in my corner who would fight for me. She went above and beyond to make sure that I was taken care of and that justice was served. 10/10 recommend her. I will continue to use her should anything arise, and ALWAYS recommend her.

MC is highly professional and easy to work with. She has helped me a couple times. During my divorce and a custody issue, she always had my kids' best interest in mind and helped me to negotiate agreements that were sustainable and easy to maintain.
She has always returned emails and calls in a timely manner, and her communication when things get delayed or we are waiting for something has been great.
She made the whole process so much easier than I expected from the stories I hear from others.
I very highly recommend her.

She was my greatest ally
Marissa Walters was my greatest ally and advocate during a very contentious case with my ex-husband. She was very communicative and empathetic to the stress everything was causing to not only myself, but to my child. She was never afraid to seek guidance from her peers to better serve my case and she always kept myself and my child at the forefront of all decisions. It took 4 years of fighting, but we finally got a secure parenting plan in place. Never once did I feel dismissed or made to feel stupid for the clarifying questions I asked. Even after everything, I know she still has a vested interest in the well-being of my child and myself. She is the main reason I can sleep at night and walk about with my head held high, knowing everything we did was above moral and ethical reproach. I highly recommend her and trust anyone she recommends.

I highly recommend MC
MC Davis was great. In my past experience with other lawyers, that has not been the case. I had a change of custody that needed to be done for my teenage son that needed to be done in a short amount of time to get enrolled in school. There were some hiccups along the way. She did a great job navigating around them and got the job done in a timely manner with no extra cost. I highly recommend MC to anyone looking for an actual honest lawyer.

MC was a complete breath of fresh air.
Before finding MC, we visited four other law offices, all of which demanded a retainer immediately without even discussing the specifics of our case or providing any preliminary information. Instead of offering reassurance, their comments only fueled our anxiety. MC was a complete breath of fresh air. She was clearly the most qualified attorney for our specific needs and demonstrated her commitment immediately. After signing her contract, she was able to show up for our first hearing the very same week. When everything seemed to be going wrong and the situation looked dire, MC stepped in and was able to help us turn things around. From day one, her focus was clear: securing the best possible outcome for us. She was incredibly involved with our case and the entire process from start to finish. Furthermore, she was completely transparent about the fees within the agreement and clearly outlined the strategy toward our goal. Her experience, dedication, and honesty are truly unmatched. We highly recommend her services.

Joint custody means both parents share responsibilities for their child. It includes joint physical custody, where the child lives with each parent for a period, and joint legal custody, where both parents share decision-making responsibilities. This arrangement requires cooperation and communication between the parents.
Do children have a say in custody decisions?
Children's preferences may be considered by the court, depending on their age and maturity level. While a child's opinion is taken into account, it is not the sole factor in deciding custody. The court prioritizes the child's best interests above all when making decisions.
What if a parent violates the custody order?
If a parent violates a custody order, the other parent can contact the court to report the violation. The court may enforce the order through legal means, including sanctions or modifications of custody arrangements. It is best to document violations and seek legal counsel to address these issues properly.
How do visitation rights work?
Visitation rights are granted to the non-custodial parent to ensure they maintain a relationship with the child. The visitation schedule is typically outlined in the custody agreement and may include weekends, holidays, and vacation periods. Both parents are encouraged to be flexible and communicate well for success.
