The Superhero (Minus Cape & Tights)

Attorney Roger Marion has taken care of my legal needs on several occasions. He has worked late into the night to help me when I was hit with a last-minute contract dispute, jumped on my non-payment for services I performed, and advised me on an array of other legal matters. Roger's vast experience -...- including cutting his teeth as a prosecutor earlier in his career -- is matched only by his got-your-back responsiveness, endless patience, unfailing kindness and clever wit (a dash of humor to lower my stress and blood pressure!). I'd recommend Roger Marion in a New York Minute!

Credit Action dismissed.

Mr. R K Marion, Esq assisted me with getting a negative credit action dismissed. Not only did he get the action dismissed, he did it pro-bono. He was transparent as to what the process was to get the action resolved, and he kept the lines of communication open. Thank you Mr. Marion, Esq.

Attorney of the highest caliber

Roger recently represented me in a complex contract dispute. Every question I had, no matter how complex, he was able to answer in a way that was fully understandable, and which gave me confidence in my case. At deposition, he clearly outclassed opposing counsel. He is an excellent negotiator and ...highly experienced trial attorney and businessman, his insight and value goes far beyond just the pure legal matter at hand. Roger put my needs first, and was always accessible. You will get much more than what you pay for, his services are worth every penny and then some.

Zealous Defender

Roger Marion is a zealous defender of his client's interests. Unlike other litigators who dutifully demur to the path of least resistance, Roger will actually FIGHT for you every step of the way. And he produces the results. I can recommend him highly and without hesitation.
