Posted by Mark | April 28, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Won my case

Mr.Eiglarsh was very effective when handling my case by keeping it simple, remaining calm and understated until it was time to preform. There was a sudden transformation into a sniper style attitude where every bullet found it’s mark, thereby silencing the opposition without a loud and prolonged enga...gement. I couldn’t have had a better experience and outcome to my case. When I first mentioned my case to mr. Eiglarsh and I questioned its trivialness, he interjected with”No case is trivial”. I knew then I found the right legal counsel. Thank you Mr. Eiglarsh

Best criminal attorney in Miami

I hired Mr. Eiglarsh a couple months ago to help me with a violation of probation. I found the firm on google and randomly called. I was in a desperate situation and had 1 hour to attain an attorney due to a warrant that had been issued for my arrest. I spoke to many attorneys that morning but I went... with Mark because of his confidence and they way he spoke. I was almost certain after consulting with other attorneys that I would be doing some sort of jail time being that this was my second violation for the same offense. At this point I was hoping for the least amount of jail time possible. Mark took the case at a reasonable fee. After a couple weeks consulting with the prosecutor who at first demanded 5-10 years jail time. In the end he got them to agree to no jail time! He’s a miracle worker. He’s team is extremely professional and are available night / day. He truly cares about his clients. Everything he said he could do he did it and more. I couldn’t be happier with his services. If your looking for someone to go above and beyond for you! This is your firm. Thanks again Mark for a job well done.

Best attorney possible

First and foremost Mr. Eiglarsh treated me like his own son in a case that was very emotional for me, especially because of my innocence. Mark is certainly the best as it comes, he is very transparent and works 110% 24/7. He is available by phone with any concern I had no matter what time of the day ...it was. I thank G-D for choosing Mr. Eiglarsh to represent me in my case.
