Very thoughtful

Mark worked on my domestic A&B case. Mark is extremely responsive and very professional. He explained all of the options ahead of time and communicated very clearly all of the in(s) and out(s) of the process. He pays close attention to details which can be the difference between winning and losing a ...case. He was able to get my case dismissed. I highly recommend Mark!

Strongly recommend Mark

I hired Mark Griffith to represent me on both criminal case and divorce case. I was very impressed in his ability to handle the tough challenges. Mark is focused and dedicated to producing his very best at all times. His experience and expertise make everything move smoothly. I was very satisfied wit...h the final outcomes. My criminal case was dropped, and my divorce case was also settled as expected. My life was extremely hard during that period, and Mark is the one who brought my life back to normal. I am a strict person, and rarely trust in anyone in my life, but Mark's performance on my two cases earned my full trust, and I strongly recommend Mark.

Amazing Lawyer and just a nice kind knowledgeable man

Mark was my second Lawyer. My very first meeting with him he explained the entire criminal process. He simply took his time answered all my questions and never looked at his watch he would have sat all day with me answering all my questions, he put me at ease. I was charged with a serious felony. Wor...king hard he got my sentence reduced from looking at a prison charge to probation. Which I am extremely grateful. I often sent Mark emails, text messages and phone calls he always answered. Often on the weekends taking time from his family. I strongly recommend Mark. In fact I am hiring him for a non criminal case.

Excellent lawyer

I was bless to hire him , he’s very passionate about his work. Most importantly, he’s honest. We fought a case for 4 years, and he was confident but also realistic. Anywho, to whom it may concern we got a victory.

Won my court case very happy that I chose this attorney.

I hired this attorney to help me with my court case. I was so worried but he told me everything is going to be okay he will fight for me. In the end I was really happy with his services, he won my court case and I was found not guilty. He is one of the best attorney I ever seen. During my court dates... I watch him fight for others and did such a wonderful job helping others out. If I ever need an attorney again it will be him. Because of him I can work now without worrying I can support my son and my family thanks to him. He did a very wonderful job and I will always remember what he did for me. I recommend him to anyone that needs an good awsome attorney. Thank you so much Mark R. Griffith for all your help. God bless you.

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 23

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I had dozens of cases, numerous motions and at least one trial against Mark Griffith and I can highly recommend him for anyone needing defense from a criminal charge in Middlesex County. He is easy to get along with, well respected by judges and prosecutors and has the ability to convince a jury that they have a reasonable doubt even after his client all but admits to the crime on the witness stand (true story). Some might think jurors are swayed by his southern accent, but it is actually preparation, dedication and experience at trial that make him so effective."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
