Excellent lawyer- aggressive

Mark helped me after I was removed from my job. He was able to get me a great award and forced the employer to tell the truth in Court. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants wants a lawyer who will actually talk to you like a normal person. He showed extra interest in me and my family's ...welfare.

Avvo Rating

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.
