Mark is the brilliant legal mind you want on your side

Mark is sharp as a tack and has extensive knowledge of the legal framework surrounding divorce and custody disputes. He guided me through a tricky separation with compassion and empathy. I consulted with a few other lawyers who were dismissive or condescending. What really set Mark apart was his sinc...ere desire and ability to do right by his clients and the law. I couldn't have done it without him, and I recommend him highly.

He is amazing. He was able to give me great advice and help me through this nasty custody battle I am going through. I would highly recommend him moving forward!

Consultation for custody and visitation case

I called Mark for a consultation on a custody case, and it was the smartest decision I made. He clearly cares about each client and their outcome, and took time to understand my case and circumstances. His insight was unique, as he himself has experienced divorce. So his advice and ability to strateg...ize and see several steps ahead, and to be very understanding and comforting comes from both his legal experience and his personal experience. After hearing my situation, he spent a great deal of time helping me understand my options. Unfortunately I didn't live where he practiced, but anyone who has him as a lawyer clearly gets someone who cares deeply for his clients which is so helpful when going through such a painful experience. I would highly recommend Mark.

Smart and sharp

I consulted with Mr. Weaver regarding a divorce and custody matter. His candor, honesty and pragmatic approach were refreshing. He was very smart and very quick but was sure to listen to my situation before making any recommendations. He gave me every reason to trust him. Highly recommended and I wil...l engage him when the time comes.

Consultation for child custody issue

I consulted mark for a child I was having with my ex husband. He is very well versed in what he does. He also is very kind and courteous as well when you contact him as well.
