Personalized, insightful and caring. These are some of the pillars of Marlene’s approach to working with clients. She balances this approach with a commitment to no-nonsense litigation and mediation that always begins with the end in mind. Marlene is a zealous advocate in litigation and an objective third-party neutral in mediation. In either case, she provides a confidential, safe, and structured space to resolve her clients’ family law issues. In litigation she navigates the court system and in mediation she facilitates communication between both parents and helps them to work together to make decisions for themselves and their children.

Jacob Levin

Attorney Marlene Shiner represented me in what ended up being an 18-month, 6 court appearances divorce and custody negotiation, which I couldn't have survived without her. Her counsel, experience, professionalism, patience and support were invaluable throughout the process. In the face of constantly changing situations, Marlene kept me calm, sane and focused on the big picture, and helped guide both of us to the best arrangement for everyone in the end. We owe her a huge debt of gratitude. Moreover, the logistics of our interaction were unstressed and comfortable, and the cost was very reasonable, and didn't include anything unnecessary. I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Shiner for any divorce or family issues you may be facing, without reservation!

Attorney Marlene Shiner was absolutely amazing with my very difficult post divorce casa. She is very competent, compassionate and skillful to deal with narcissistic people, as it was the case with my ex attorney. Her stuff is also very friendly, attentive and pleasant to work with. Thank you very much for your exceptional work! God bless you and your family!

Marlene is phenomenal. I'd spoken with a lot of attorneys who wanted to go to war over assets and they left me feeling worse than I'd imagined possible at a time that was already very, very trying and difficult. I just felt like I'd need a shower every time I got off with a family attorney. I've seen attorneys direct and push clients into litigation, chewing away at family assets in the process and benefiting no one but the attorney themselves. Marlene is the opposite of this. She wanted resolution the same as I did (quickly and amicably) but even when things got rocky she would stick by and keep things moving forward. I highly recommend Marlene and thank God she was there for me during an exceptionally trying time in life. She really left me in a great position and I'm grateful beyond words. Thank you!

I haven’t gotten around to writing this but I’m putting in time now. I asked Marlene for help after finding about her through a simple google search, in what I realized was going to be an unfortunate and tough divorce, involving also the custody and future of my small children. Since the beginning of this long and arduous process, Marlene has been available, incredibly kind, compassionate and provides great feedback. I am finally at the end of this process, and the beginning of a much longer one which is life, and I credit Marlene as one of the people that made it possible for me be able to look ahead with much more hope. I wholeheartedly recommend Marlene for anyone dealing with separation, divorce, custody.

Marlene's business model is to make quick easy money. She takes advantage of people who are in dire need of legal help. She took my money and did the minimal work. She does not care about domestic violence victim but she pretend she does. I wrote and correct all my affidavit because she made so many mistakes! She did not prepare me for court because she said she would handle all the questions but I ended up talking in court because she didn't know what to say. She will scam your money without blinking an eye if you let her so stay away!
