HANDS DOWN THE ABSOLUTE BEST !!!!!
Without a doubt, the best lawyer alive! I rarely write reviews, but this was an exception. Everyone should have the opportunity to encounter such professionalism. I was on the verge of losing everything for which I had worked so hard. Mark not only took his time helping me, but he was also open and willing to answer any and all questions I had about the situation. It was an outstanding communication.  Every step of the way, I felt as if he was with me. If you're thinking about working with him, do yourself a favor and hire him; you won't be disappointed.

DUI Defense
Mr. Walmer went above and beyond for in getting my issues resolved. I couldn't have asked for a more professional and thorough representative. Mark saved my career and livelihood without breaking a sweat. It's because of him that I can continue to serve my country while putting my life back together. You can't put a price on his hard work and relentless dedication to his client's best interests. I would definitely recommend his services as a first choice to anyone in need of an experienced legal professional

Thank you Mark Walmer
On two occasions since 2010, I made poor choices and wound up in a significant amount of trouble. With the help of Mark Walmer, I got the best possible outcome on both situations. Thanks to Mark Walmer, I got a second chance at a good life. I hate to think of how bad things could have turned out for me without him.

I cannot thank Mark enough for his time and advice.
I found myself completely depressed and hopeless after I was charged with a DUI. I have always been a perfectionist so this seemed like the end of the world. Mark came into the office on a Saturday to meet with me because my parents had contacted him regarding how depressed I was. He listened to my story, was empathetic, but also very proactive in starting the process to put this behind me. Mark introduced me to the ARD program, and was very helpful with laying out the timeline / process for the program. He was able to help me keep things in perspective and realize that why I made a mistake, everything was going to be fine. Mark was always extremely responsive, and was even willing to provide his advice to me on another legal matter. His experience is extensive, and I feel extremely blessed to have had his guidance throughout this process. I would recommend Mark to anyone looking for an attorney for a DUI. He was the best!

2 DUIs and a traffic violation
Mark exceeded my expectations. And he is all an around good guy. He is genuinely very caring and has great knowledge in the field of law. I can't imagine getting better legal help anywhere else. Phillis and Mark answered all of my concerns and are currently walking me through my license suspension, directing me to the right people to talk to. They will go the extra mile to make sure you are well taken care of as a client in every way possible. Phillis and Mark are a great team. Without them I would have been a sitting duck. Plus they are affordable and flexible. Definitely worth every penny. I am 100% satisfied with their service. Please do yourself a favor and put your legal problems/traffic violations in their very capable hands. I highly recommend it!

GAVE ME A CHANCE TO MOVE FORWARD AND BETTER MYSELF AND MY LIFE
MARK WALMER IS A FINOMINAL LAWYER. MARK HAS STUCK BY MY SIDE FOR THREE OR SO YEARS THROUGH ALL MY TRIALS AND TREBULATIONS DURING THIS TIME. HE HAS REACHED OUT NEAR AND FAR AND IF ANYTHING WAS POSSIBLE HE MADE IT HAPPEN. HE IS CONFIDENT AND HAS LOTS OF WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE IN WHAT HE DOES. VERY EASY TO WORK WITH, VERY ATTENTIVE, AND CARES NOT ONLY ABOUT YOUR CASE BUT ALSO YOUR WELL BEING. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND ANY OTHER LAWYER.

Because of this man I have a chance at a promising future
I was facing several outstanding charges that could have kept me from ever exceeding professionally in the workforce, and Mr. Walmer did an amazing job with my cases. I now have a chance at a esteemed career doing something I love because of his excellent abilities as an attorney. In addition, he is generally a kind, caring and trustworthy human being.

strongly recommend Mark Walmer: traffic violation
I hired Mark Walmer to represent me regarding a traffic violation in Lancaster County. Mark and his staff, Phyllis, were both responsive and kept me well informed. Mark was accessible and got the job done in a timely matter. I had an excellent outcome due to his expertise. As a side note: Mark and Phyllis have a nice way about them. I recommend Mark Walmer.

Evaluation
Appreciate what was done for me when falsely accused of child molestation. Mr. Walmer said I was harrassed on the job. I have resigned recently from that Home care Company.

Walmer is results-oriented and a clear communicator
In regards to a disorderly conduct summary offense, Mark Walmer differentiated from the other criminal lawyers in his clear strategy for results. Whereas other criminal lawyers spent the great majority of the initial consultation hedging expectations, Mark educated me on the law, and treated me as a teammate.

A bit overpriced but worth it
Mr. Walmer is well spoken and professional. He puts his clients at ease. I received less of a sentence than other people in my situation; I am not sure if that was due to his skills or my situation. I paid more for his services than other attorneys charge but the outcome of the case was more desirable so the premium seems to be worth it but I am not sure. He definitely is integrated well into the Lancaster community. I would say that he is definitely one of the best attorneys in Lancaster county but I would shop around. He has a gift for being honest, but not disclosing all outcomes of a case or a sentence or what the implications of the sentence mean. Listen to what he doesn't say. Having said that, Mr. Walmer is clearly dedicated to his clients and cares about a successful outcome for you. I am not sure, though, if he is worth the cost. I would suggest definitely shortlisting him with four or five other attorneys and getting estimates of costs from all of them before proceeding.
