James Markofski

We have know James Markofski for a few years. He has been great at helping our son "get out of trouble" . And when I needed an attorney he was right there helping me out every step of the way. He made a bad situation tolerable. He is not only a good attorney, but also a great guy who listens and... cares about you. I would recommend Mr. Markofski for anyone who needs legal assistance. He is defiantly our to go guy. Thank you.

Best Counsel EVER

James Markofski has been our family attorney for a very long time. He has been our advocate for property, personal injury, estate planning, and legal work when my children were "in trouble". Needless to say, he is the "go to guy"! No one will work harder for your rights. His counsel has always been "...spot on". I, or my family, would never ever consider legal advice from anyone else. Respectfully John A. Swartz Sr.

Excellent experience

I was in need of legal counsel in regards to a potential issue that occurred with our non profit. After consulting with James the stress I was experiencing due to the situation was taken away. After thoroughly reviewing all the information pertaining to our issue, he assured me that this was a manage...able problem and that any legal issues that arose he would be there to handle them. He is personable and easy to talk to, which is extremely helpful in stressful times. I would highly recommend him, and plan on continuing to utilize his legal services for our non profit and for the business I own.

Fabulous Lawyer

James represented me in my lawsuit for a bad car accident I was in. He worked hard to get me the settlement I deserved. He was awesome to work with, always answered my questions in a timely matter and never had me wondering. James was always positive and had kind words for me to help me through e...verything. I highly recommend James!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
