Mark Lowell Hayes

Mr. Mark Hayes was hired to Appeal a child custody case in Onslow County. His service has been nothing short of exceptional. Very professional in both verbal and written communication with responses to questions answered directly and in a timely manor. He keep us well informed of the steps of the pro...cess and the progress of the Appeal up to date at all times. His rate was fair and within the confines of the agreed upon amount from the initial consolation.

Mark L. Hayes excels at appeals and I highly recommend his firm. He won a precedent-setting appeal for me on a topic that has never really been addressed before. He then proceeded to win a remand hearing ordering my beloved dog Spike be returned to me by the thief who stole him 2 years ago. Again, I ...cannot write enough on this limited platform, but suffice to say he's the best at appellate law.

My son was convicted of a very high-profile crime and was sentenced to about 40 years in prison, I was desperately in need of a very good appellant attorney because I believed in my son's innocence and felt that he was convicted unjustly. I was determined I wasn't leaving North Carolina until I obt...ained one of the best Appellant attorneys in that county, I reached out to a particular attorney who was referred to me as one of the best, but he was not available and referred me to Mr. Mark Hayes, the other attorney advised me that Mark Hayes was just as good as he was so I reached out to Mr. Hayes. From the moment I reached out to Mr Hayes, he heard my desperate cry for an attorney and once I explained the case he agreed to take on the case. I was very surprised that his fees were not as much as other high-profile attorneys in that area. Mr. Hayes immediately jumped on the case right away and began communicating his findings immediately, he kept me and my son in the loop the entire time and answered any questions with all honesty. After a while, I considered Mr. Hayes's family because I saw how he was working on my son's case and believed in my son's case. Mr Hayes was able to find so many errors in my son's case that I could not believe it. Along the way, the case got a little complicated and needed more attention to file the appeal (which would cost more money) and Mr Hayes was gracious enough to extend credit to me so that the case would not be put on hold. I honestly put my trust in Mr. Hayes and his capability to win this appeal because my son was convicted of 40 years of a crime I do not believe he committed. Fast forward, it ALL paid off. My prayers were answered! Mr Hayes called me and advised me that we had won the Appeal and that my son would be awarded a new trial. I am forever grateful to Mr Hayes and I am so glad that he was referred to us, I could not have asked for a better attorney. I am forever grateful to Mr. Hayes for doing an outstanding job with my son's appeal.

Mr. Hayes was very professional from day one. He contacted me through letters every few months. He responded to me when I would ask questions he kept me up to date on every detail of my case and even sent copies of the briefs for me to go over. At the end of the day he gave his all and my case was ov...erturned im thankful.
