Who We Are

Serving Greater Philadelphia & Southern New Jersey

Strong Commitment to Our Clients

Maureen M. Farrell cares deeply about her clients and works diligently to help them achieve their best possible outcomes.

Before considering law, Maureen met Stanley H. Kaplan, the scholastic test prep pioneer, during college. After discussing her desire to teach and her interest in standardized testing, she spent several years teaching students how to take standardized tests, helping her students acquire the skills and confidence necessary to tackle these tests.

With a master’s degree in education focusing in organizational development, Maureen understands how to manage people, figure out what drives them to reach their potential, and effectively communicate with a wide demographic. As an avid marathon runner, she brings her discipline, drive, and focus to her practice.

After working for a number of solo practitioners, Maureen opened her own practice because it provided her with the flexibility and independence she sought. Her practice emphasizes treating every client with respect.

Whether assisting with your business strategy, formulating a plan for a will or a power of attorney, or discussing your concerns as you age, Maureen understands that every situation is unique and that there is no one-size-fits-all rule. She closely follows the law’s changing nature and puts up her strongest effort to keep you informed. Maureen says, “No matter how complex or simple your matter is, every client is treated the same, and every client is important to us.”
