We hired Tom to work our estate planning and we couldn’t be more pleased we did! He is extremely knowledgeable and helped us navigate through the planning process with great ease. The summaries he provides are so very helpful, they simplify the legal terms and procedures, making it easier to unde...rstand better. We highly recommend Attorney Marks for your estate planning!

I was fortunate enough to hire Tom for some estate planning and after working with him, I always leave our meetings with a greater understanding of the legal process. Tom is very knowledgeable, informative and receptive, he always takes the time to patiently explain all the parameters of each topic.... Tom and his staff are very organized and a pleasure to work with. I have full confidence that all my estate planning needs will be properly handled and I would highly recommend Tom for this purpose.

We recently completed our Estate Plan with Thomas Marks, Esq and highly recommend his services for your Estate Planning needs. With a carefully thought out timeline, attention to detail, expertise and friendly demeanor, he ensured that we understood each step of the way and that the process went smo...othly. We now have a complete Estate Plan and are reassured that our wishes as well as plans for our loved ones will be fulfilled. Thank you!

What a great estate planning & trust lawyer - none better!

My financial planner when asked, recommended Tom Marks to me for setting up my revocable trust, will, health proxy, power of attorney, etc. He said, "I know you will like him." On the first visit, I knew my financial planner was correct. I instantly like working with Tom. He has a warm and inviti...ng personality. Better still, he demonstrate a complete understanding of estate planning law to me immediately making me certain I was in good hands. This proved true over the course of our meetings, phone calls and document reviews. I feared at the outset this would be a "boiler plate exercise" since i considered his fixed quote for the services less than I expected. What I got were a set of documents that completely reflected my desires while complying with both MA & FL laws. I cannot say enough good about Tom and his work product. Please look no further, Tom will provide you with quality and timely legal services, will like make you feel like his friends and do all this at a very reasonable cost. I cannot imagine going anywhere else for my future legal services. Joe Clerico

"Tom and I met when we represented adverse parties in a very sensitive and difficult matter. After a contentious beginning, we were able to resolve the matter in a reasonable and equitable fashion. Tom demonstrated that he could show compassion and understanding for my client while obtaining a great result for his client. Tom is very smart, he knows the law, and he is able to exercise mature judgment and creative problem solving. I am very comfortable referring matters to Tom; I know his clients are in good hands."
