Top Notch

Dave Markarian and the whole Markarian group are very impressive. I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with several different people on the staff and every one of them is top notch. My case was a tough one with a lot of complications but that didn’t stop the Markarian Group from delivering great resu...lts. You can tell that they are all very passionate about what they do. In addition to Dave being an extremely talented lawyer, he has an impressive ability to create an environment that attracts and retains the best business lawyers around, resulting in a truly unique and very valuable concentration of talent. From minor routine business issues to major critical business legal issues, this firm is the best around to handle it all. Very knowledgeable, friendly and professional.  I highly recommend them.

Great job defending me in a civil financial matter.

I highly recommend, extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful and strategic. Worked hard to save me unnecessary fees. David successfully defended me in a civil law suit in regards to a business relationship. Extremely communicative, kept me informed every step of the way.

Thank you Dave for helping to make my business ownership a pleasant and seamless transition. You and your team were spot on and provided me with professional guidance that helped me understand all needed during my first business purchase.

Earnest & Knowledgable

David was an excellent advisor to my family and our business. He provided us excellent advise that will assist us short-term and long-term. We look forward to (quite possibly) having him represent us in the near future.

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.
