No Charge Consultation

Mark Zeck provided excellent suggestions on an alternative course of action prior to pursuing legal action against a corporate entity. We were directed to try the Attorney Generals Office first, who, within 48 hours, had contacted the Corporate entity and in turn they contacted us an we settled with ...a positive outcome. That was the best advice ever and saved us a lot of time and money. Mark was very understanding and helpful in many ways. He took his time, walked through everything step by step, never did we feel rushed. We will definitely be utilizing Marks talents again and would highly recommend him..

Excellent service from Mark Zeck

Mr. Zeck was very professional, well organized, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. He allayed any fears and worries, and made a stressful situation manageable. He informed us of all possible outcomes and strove to get the best resolution to the situation for us with minimal court interaction...s. We were very satisfied with his services, price, and performance. I would highly recommend him to anyone who requires legal representation.

Trust Client

Mr. Zeck set up a trust for me. He was extremely thorough with the paper work and discussing the various aspects of the trust and benefits and disadvantages of doing things one way versus another. He provided significant extra value by showing me how the trust works and how to do things with it; h...e provided many sample forms and scenarios that the trust would be useful in outside the original scope. Mr. Zeck didn't just hand me a document and send me on my way. Prior to even committing my money and business to him, Mr. Zeck spent a good deal of his time "off the clock" answering my questions and going over general strategy for the trust and the reasoning for my trust implementation to make sure that a trust would accomplish what I was looking to do. He has been extremely responsive to phone calls and emails throughout the process. I can't recommend him enough for this matter.

Super Lawyer

Attorney Zeck was fantastic to work with and was able to assist me in staying in the U.S. under the Violence Against Women's Act. If it wasn't for his dedication and expertise I could have lost my children because I missed a visa deadline I never knew existed many years before. He also assisted me w...ith my divorce and custody issues. We are an intact family today because of him. Thank you Mr. Zeck.

A Shining Example!

Mark is an exceptional lawyer. I cannot praise him enough. He is a knowledgeable, compassionate, and intelligent ally. I went through a nightmare with an attorney who turned a bad situation worse. I reached out to Mark based on my prior experience with him in another matter and he listened, counseled..., and then acted. In an area where he felt I would be better served by someone with a specific specialty, he provided an excellent referral. He is responsive and insightful and acts with integrity. What a pleasure to deal with a true professional. I would highly recommend Attorney Zeck to anyone seeking legal counsel.

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.
