Divorce experience

Divorce can be emotional and stressful. Mark helped to ease the stress while maintaining a high professional standard. He is an expert in his field and has a strong support team. The office, especially Kerri, was attentive to all correspondence and keeping me informed through every step in the pro...cess. Highly recommended and could not be happier with their services and guidance!

Disrespecful and condescending

Mr. Anderson was on a list of Divorce Attorneys from Stop Domestic Violence. His rate said $50 per hour for "clients of Stop Domestic Violence". Turned out his rate was $250 per hour. Mr. Anderson was condescending, unprofessional and unreliable. He called me a liar, made me feel like a criminal..., cancelled a couple of court dates and I felt he was on my ex-husband's side. I had never had to deal with the court system before. Nothing was explained to me. Though no one can predict with certainty what happens in the courtroom, I had blinded faith that I would at least, be treated with respect and loyalty. I expected my attorney to work hard to ensure the best possible result, which didnt happen. Furthermore, Mr. Anderson often would not reply to my emails, and didnt send me a detailed invoice until a year later, which is not only illegal but detrimental. I would not recommend Mr. Anderson as a divorce attorney.

Great divorce lawyer

I hired Mark Anderson to handle my divorce in Plattsburgh. He did a wonderful job, and I recommend him to anyone looking for a divorce lawyer. His staff was wonderful and always available to me when I had questions.

Great Lawyer!

I was in a domestic violence relationship and needed protection for my children and me. I hired Mark and he was great. He was there every step of the way and responded to my (many) telephone calls. Mark helped me through a really difficult time and was sensitive and caring. I would hire him agai...n without hesitation and recommend him to anyone going through Family Court.

Lazy Lawyer just wants your money

I hired Mark to represent me in the summer 2014 for child custody matters. My spouse had filed an order of protection against me filling it with lies. Mark was very unresponsive and left me to do all the work. He spent more time telling me how much I was going to lose if I took my case to trial ev...en though I had all the evidence and testimony on my side. He seemed very agitated whenever I asked him questions. I paid him $2K for a grand total of maybe 2 hours of cumulative effort. What a total waste of time and money.
