Mark Joseph Markus’s Reviews

I had a bankruptcy case that was closed without discharge due to failure to file Official form 23 (2nd Credit counseling). I talked to several lawyers as I was trying to find someone good who would be able to guide me through reopening of my case in order to get a discharge.
I didn't feel very good about any of the lawyers I talked to, until I found Mark J. Markus. There aren't enough good words I can say about him.
He replied to me immediately, and he always did throughout our work together. He explained in detail what needed to be done and what the chances are for my case to be re-opened. He was very knowledgeable about it. He quoted me the price for his services immediately (which were very reasonable compared to some other rip-off lawyers I talked to), and told me which papers to send him. My motion to the Judge was filed less then a week from the first time I contacted him. I was amazed by his professionalism and prompt action.
The judge answered within 5 days, and my case was re-opened, and I will be getting my discharge! I am so happy with the result, and I know I only have Mark J. Markus to thank for it.
I will always recommend him to all of my friends and family and I am happy we have such great attorneys in California.
Thank you Mark!

I still don't know how to express my gratefulness to Mr. Mark, though my case has been discharged about 4 months ago. If you go to read my testimonial on Mr. Mark's own website, and come back here, I'll tell you the same thing, the same feeling, the very strong same opinion about Mr. Mark, as a professional, he is the best! He saved my personal financial life! I would absolutely recommend Mr.Mark for your needs!

Mark was always there for any question or clarification. He responds to emails often in the same day, Our case was particularly difficult because we have moved from California to Canada. He was with us and practically held our hands through the whole process.

Mr. Mark Markus is the best bankruptcy attorney. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and organized. He is very patient in answering all your questions and concerns. Mr. Markus would respond to most of my e-mailed questions within 3 hours, even when I would e-mail him at 9:00 p.m. in the night and on weekends. He has an A+ from the Better Business Bureau.

Mr. Markus helped me obtain the fresh economic start I desperately needed. I highly recommend him. You will not be disappointed.

My husband and I found ourselves unemployed in June 2004. It was necessary to utilize my extensive credit to support my family until we found anticipated employment.

Unfortunately, jobs did not materialize, and my credit was exhausted. Our only recourse for relief from our overwhelming debt was for me to initiate bankruptcy.

We first consulted a certified credit-counseling agency that developed a debt reduction program, which resulted in monthly payments slightly less than our aggregated credit debt. This solution did not resolve our problem. The agency then suggested using paralegals to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Careful research indicated that this approach was unwise. Paralegals can only provide forms. They cannot answer bankruptcy questions or offer legal advice.

Online searches lead us to Mark. He was immediately responsive to our situation and ultimately developed a plan that allowed us to retain our automobiles, bank accounts, bank debit cards, and our personal property.

Mark was extremely patient and pro-active as he addressed our situation. All of our questions and concerns were promptly and thoroughly answered. At our request, he supplied an attorney to assist me at the bankruptcy hearing.

His attention to detail, follow up, and professional knowledge, are nonpareil. Furthermore, from previous consultations with other bankruptcy attorneys, I know that Mark’s professional fees are moderate, and not designed to take advantage of people in distressed financial situations.

Mark is the attorney who should represent you in a bankruptcy situation.
