Marc J. Smith

I hired Mr. Marc Smith for OPM waiver for failure to register with selective service system on 31, December 2016. It was the best decision I have ever made for something. Mr. Marc has the best knowledge and expertise on this subject as an attorney. I got OPM waiver for SSS recently. I wish him the be...st and would like to recommend him for everybody else who are in the similar situation.

I am very fortunate to know Mr. Smith who helped me to have OPM ruled in favor of my federal employment eligibility regarding my status on failure to register with the Selective Service. Mr. Smith is a very honest and professional attorney, he told me what he could do and what he could not do as an... attorney in initial consultation, a honest opinion. He helped me to draft a letter to OPM and that result in the OPM ruled in favor of my Federal employment. I appreciated it.

Retaining Marc Smith for my employment discrimination case was a very good decision for me. I was a contract employee terminated as a result of disclosing a medical condition. After discussing my situation with Marc, he helped me understand my rights, the legal recourses available, and chances of suc...cess. While working with Marc, I found his firm to be very responsive. I was routinely provided with updates and he worked to ensure that I received a positive outcome for both the immediate and long term. I highly recommend Marc Smith for his professionalism, knowledge, and responsiveness.

Although I live on the west coast, I hired Marc Smith because he seemed to have a high level of expertise dealing with federal agencies. It was very easy to work with him remotely. He was clear and focused about following a specific strategy to deal with my exact issue...basically saying "do this ri...ght the first time." My case was successful; I was extremely happy with the result. Mr Smith not only did a great job technically, but he was very kind & understanding along the way, helping me through a stressful situation. And his rates were more than fair. I would not hesitate to hire Marc again, and I highly recommend him.

Marc Smith helped me get a waiver for the Selective Service requirement (I did not know to register when I turned 18) so that I could accept a job in the federal government. I found Marc's website and called him frantically when my future employer was ready to rescind my job offer because of the Sele...ctive Service issue. Marc seems to be the only lawyer I could find that specializes in this issue. It generally takes 6-8 months for the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to review the waiver applications -- and my future employer was not willing to wait that long. Marc told me that his cases generally take 4-6 weeks and he has had over 40 successes (and zero failures). That assurance convinced my future employer to hold my job for a few weeks while I navigated the process with Marc. He was incredibly knowledgeable, ready with a streamlined and perfected strategy, knew all the forms and documents I needed to present a compelling case to OPM. With his help I was able to prepare a 50-page dossier to present to OPM in less than a week from the time I first met with him, including my own 12-page statement that he helped me write and a dozen other signed statements. (He scheduled me in the day after I first called.) He was very responsive throughout the whole process, answering my emails promptly and thoroughly, drawing on the wisdom of his tremendous experience working on these issues. His many contacts at OPM and the Selective Service office were invaluable along the way, helping to expedite the process and make sure my file got in front of the right people. At the end of the day, we were able to get the waiver two weeks after we submitted the application! His fees are very reasonable, especially considering his rare expertise on these matters. I am incredibly satisfied with my experience with Marc and do not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
