Review Mark Barney

Excellent lawyer- aggressive

Posted by

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.
