Previous client

Marc and his firm (Jenny & the rest) worth every dollar they earned. I'm very pleased with the outcome of a matter I hired him to handle. If fact he exceeded my expectation what make him a good friend to me now. I already started gifting the people I care about to use Marc and do business with him. H...e is the best in what he does.

Excellent Attorney/Professional Service

Marc Alster is an excellent attorney who helped me work through all the preparation and filing for bankruptcy. Very professional; he explained the process, what I was required to do, provided referrals which successfully helped me make the decisions I needed to make to make the right decision for me.... I ended up applying for Chapter 7 and Marc worked with me every step of the way. He is an expert in his field and highly respected. I would not hesitate to hire Marc again and would highly recommend his services to my friends and relatives.

Bankruptcy Client

I just want to say that I am a client of Marc Alster and have nothing but wonderful things to say about my experience with him and his office. I had a case that was not quite normal and he handled it to perfection. I was very happy with the service that I received. Thank you Marc -- you were just ...wonderful!!

  • 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.
