So I live in South Dakota and I had a scheduled consultation a few weeks ago and funny as hell I work for Burger King and I have a prepaid card and for some reason it was not working but I think I gave them the wrong zipvcode but they are very nice and understanding . They set me up for another consultation a day before my birthday April 2 ND and I am looking forward to it . I miss my daughter she's my world and I m tired of being pushed out of her life... Here we go battling with the ex wife over the best interest of my daughter. Aggravating

Hiring Marilyn to represent me (and the best interests of my children) was the best decision I've ever made. The women in this firm are by far the most dedicated, intelligent, caring, determined, and impressive team of professionals in this field. From the first moment I called for a consultation through the end of my settlement hearing I was constantly and consistently impressed. Every interaction with this office (no matter if it was email, phone, or in person) was fantastic. Their support throughout was above and beyond, and I will recommend this office to everyone.

I had a consultation with Michelle, and at first I was disappointed that it wasn't with Marilyn, (since she was the only reason I was coming to this firm), but Michelle gave me very good advice on how to best approach my custody battle. I truly felt that she cared about the mountains of evidence I had, and would have presented every one of those facts in court. She was kind when she steered me away from how I was trying to approach the case, as my ideas would not have been helpful.
After talking with Michelle, I felt confident I could have gone to court myself, based on the battle plan she had

Marilyn is top notch and of course everyone wants their side to win. Sadly, we didnt win our case but that is not indicative of Marliyn's efforts or her expertise. I would definitely recommend her and her team. Sometimes the system doesn't work even if it's in the best interest of the child, but we had to give it our best shot and that included Marilyn and her team.

She was a pain to me while I was birthing her, my daughter. She pleased and surprised all of us for becoming such a great woman in so many ways. I'm so proud she became a lawyer and so much more proud that she became a great family lawyer. She loves what she does and helps her clients beyond the most optimistic expectations while being caring and empathetic to the horrible times they are going through. I obviously highly recommend her if you need marital legal help.

Marilyn York is the most selfless woman I've ever met. She lives by the idea that the purpose of life is to find your gift, then give it away. I am so thankful that people like Marilyn live among society to better everyone's lives everyday. Her application of this makes her the great lawyer she always strives to be and is.

Marilyn, Ilin and the entire staff were extremely easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable and professional in handling a difficult breakup. Their advice was excellent and the outcome was much better than I had hoped to achieve. Simply put, they exceeded both their promise and my expectations. Highly recommend.

Marilyn York's office is kind, caring and extremely efficient! Every person that dealt with me from the receptionist on up was nothing short of professional but showed an empathy unique in this type of business! I would highly recommend them, and as a woman I felt that my case was given 1st class advise, care and the outcome was exactly as we discussed. I would recommend them without hesitation!

I can't say enough about Marilyn and her team. Ilin and Julie were a great team and made a very trying and frustrating chain of events much easier to tolerate. I hope I don't need to use them again anytime soon, although I find that hard to believe. So for now I'll just say thanks and say, until the next time.
Wouldn't go anywhere else for family law... PERIOD

If I could give 1/2 star I would. Straight forward, she represented my ex husband whom I still care for very much but not in love with him. I'm sure M. York or her staff will reply back as nasty as they can get away with online.
She didn't use full truth in this case. Maybe that's how all attorneys are I wouldn't know as I have never needed legal representation. Her office would send letters to me that were totally false accusations and absolutely ridiculous and hurtful. My ex husband was and still is a Christian and the words used in these letters would Never be used by him. Damages to our home

Marilyn, Ashley, Hannah and the entire office are absolutely amazing. Throughout my entire divorce Marilyn made the process as easy and stress free as possible. She made the daunting process understandable and took the time to clearly explain anything that I did not understand. It is apparent that she is genuinly concerned for her clients and their well being during such a trying period of their lives. My hope is that no one has to endure a divorce. If it does have to happen though, there is no one that I can recommend more than Marilyn York. She came to me very highly recommended and now

Marilyn York has been my legal counsel since my daughter was a toddler - some ten years ago. She and her knowledgeable team have helped me through the many grueling child custody battles that I have endured over that time.
Marilyn has been instrumental in getting the courts to allow me to see my child during the times when my right to see her was challenged at every turn, and when my little one was too young to speak for herself. Marilyn helped me to avoid undue financial burdens that I was unaware could be levied against me, and has steered me through the false accusations and charges that threatened

Compassion in a challenging time. I sat in the initial consultation with Marilyn and said, "I feel I'm getting divorced all over again, and this after 14 years." Marilyn put me at ease, was calm and clearly knowledgable. She gave me insight as to what could happen (positive and negative) and most of all understood the circumstances.
As the process of defending against an unanticipated legal challenge for more child support unfolded, Ashleigh, Michelle and Marilyn worked together as a team with the utmost professionalism and efficiency. I could sit back knowing that they would do

I've had to do a tremendous amount of work in the legal field for myself, mainly regarding child custody of my son, because I was a poor college student and couldn't afford an attorney. I eventually had built up enough of a case to take my ex to court for primary physical custody of our son because the abuse and neglect he was being subjected to was causing him permanent harm. I knew this was going to be a complicated and difficult trial so I hired Marilyn York. She and her associate were everything I thought they would be. They took the facts I laid out for them and put them on display

I had two lawyers prior to Marilyn and her team and I also saw at least 3 opposing lawyers. Marilyn and her team are by far the best that I have seen. If you want the job done right, you will choose to pay for Marilyn.
My case was very unique, complicated, and just outright exhausting. There were thousands of pages of information to deal with. Police, CPS, lawyers, GAL, CASA, therapists, witnesses, etc. Marilyn and her team did a great job dealing with everything and organizing the pieces to the puzzle.
Most importantly to me is that Marilyn listened to me. She dialogued with me on what was best

Marilyn works hard to get her clients fair and equal treatment. When my husband was trying to win custody of his daughter, her staff was amazing and always on top of things. They patiently listened to concerns, calmed his (our) fears, and WON.
Yes, it was a bit expensive and drained his retirement account, but that wasn't all Marilyn's fault. The other party decided to play dirty and that required additional work by Marilyn's team to try and rectify it.
