Best Lawyer I ever worked with

I was extremely blessed when I was referred to Mark. I had a very strenuous divorce and because of it the title of my home was in a very complicated situation. Mark is very knowledgeable, detailed, professional but most important compassionate. Personally was a very stressed transaction and he manag...ed to resolve it all.

Excellent attorney

Mark is truly a professional. His experience, humanity and understanding of the law is evident from the moment you ask for advise. He is able to see right thru small details that could help you to support your case. Couldn't ask for a better firm and lawyer, simply the Best !!!!! Impressive skills & ...wonderful down to earth person to speak to as well as being tough enough to get things done. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs advise in complicated matters.

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.
