Divorce /parenting plan

Mr Mark and his paralegal Lee-Anne are kind - professional and understanding of the importance of a life changing process such as divorce with a minor . I am a physician who had limited time and also suffered an urgent medical surgery during this process , I can tell you if I did not have Mark as my... attorney my divorce settlement could be have not been successful . He was at my side every step of the way during my illness and the entire process of court related preparation , he always advised me to follow the law which has lead to an excellent outcome for me and my daughter . Words will never be enough to express my eternal gratitude . Now I feel that the right Attorney was my golden ticket to survive my divorce - and recovered from my medical emergency . Mark and Lee-Anne I will forever remember you as my legal angel in my time of need . Please keep up the good work

Told me not to throw him under a bus

Hired this guy as my first lawyer in a divorce and was slapped with legal fees from the other side for not having disclosure ready in the timeframe allowed while this guy sat next to me telling me not to throw him under the bus in front of the judge. Fired him the next day after about five thousand ...dollars in fees.

I am surprised by this review as none of the actions alleged even remotely describe the manner in which I practice law. I pride myself on working hard for every client on every case for which I am hired to represent. I am certainly willing to discuss this matter should you so choose to contact me directly. Mark J. Fraser, Esq.

MADE A DIFFICULT SITUATION EASIER

Divorce is never easy but Mark (and his fabulous paralegal-Leann) was always there for me, to answer my questions, calm me down when circumstances (like COVID) caused delays and make me feel they were truly on my side. I could not be happier with the results and I have Mark and Leann to thank.

Excellent Attorney, Exceeded my Expectations

I had a complicated divorce and child custody case that Mark handled with great knowledge and timeliness. He was very professional and caring about my case. I have used previous attorneys that were not nearly as competent as Mark. The outcome was everything I had hoped for and more. I would highly ...recommend hi as an attorney, and especially as a family law attorney.
