This is the guy you need

When I needed a lawyer to represent me in a Federal dispute I spent two weeks just trying to get a lawyer, any lawyer, to simply return my phone call. A friend of a friend of mine told me I should contact Mark Zaid. He sent me Mark's email and I emailed him and heard right back. He was calm, reassur...ing, and confident - and agreed to take my case. I looked Mark up later and was stunned to see that D.C.'s # 1 attorney (Mark) was working with me. This guy is Superman. Compared to the other cases he represents (look him up!!!) I was small potatoes. But he didn't treat my case as if it was any less important. He swooped in and took care of things. With me, he was honest and incredibly, incredibly fair. For my dispute - he was like hiring a wrecking crew (bonus: he has a tough guy accent!) I feel safe knowing Mark is out there, and unbelievably grateful.
