Posted by Chris @ Day's Jewelers | October 21, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Debt Collection

Top Notch

We hired Mark to collect our high dollar charge account that had been written off. Not only have we seen an increase in the accounts collected post charge-off, but the level of communication has been second to none. No other attorney has been able to maintain the balance of collections and custo...mer service quite like Mark.

Great guy

I had the pleasure of working with mark while he was in school a few years back. Having doubts of a student attorney mark surprised me with his skills in court and his willingness to actually help his client.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
