The best man for the job

A few years ago my husband filed for divorce. I learned of this through Mark Rodriguez after a friend had advised me to talk to him. He told me of my options and I chose to follow his advice. The process was grueling and something I found to dread on a daily basis. I'm not the most organized pers...on, and am quite technically challenged. Mark was patient with me through those issues and many others. After what seemed like forever, all parties finally came to an agreement. Sadly, one year and a day later, my ex filed for modification. So again, there we were, back in the throws of was actually worse than divorce. Again, Mark was patient and handled everything, as usual, and when we returned to court in fron of the Chief Magistrate, he not only showed true knowledge and professionalism. He was more than prepared and came to the table again, with more than I could have expected, and we prevailed. I cannot thank Mark more. I, and most likely Mark, am quite sure my ex will again, try to get out of following both Judge and Magistrate's rulings, as much as I pray daily that he doesn't and I, without a doubt, will count on Mr. Rodriguez to save me. I highly recommend Mark Rodriguez, as I'm sure he can handle anything, even while dealing with my ex's sneaky shenanigans. So, thank you Mr. Mark Rodriguez, Esq.

Competence and Confidence

When I was laid off from job of many years, I called upon Mark to represent me in a motion to modify durational alimony that I was paying to my former husband (FH). My FH remarried while the case was pending, but a heavier burden was placed upon us to prove a substantial change in circumstances not c...ontemplated at the final judgment, due to the existence of a Marital Settlement Agreement (MSA). I amassed a wealth of evidence proving misrepresentation of financials and life circumstance by FH that I yearned to show the court, but Mark kept me on-task. Mark instilled in me the necessity of a case that was clear, credible and relevant, and he personally summarized hundreds of pages into a clear and simplified presentation. This proved to be a winning strategy that met our evidentiary burden, leading to an un-appealed termination of my alimony obligation, and was less costly. I was truly amazed by Mark’s retention of the facts from my original divorce. Mark was readily accessible, and always maintained a high degree of integrity and professionalism throughout the 1 year 8 month ordeal of stall tactics and road blocks. Thank you, Mark G. Rodriguez, for lifting this weight from my shoulders.

Could not have hired a more competent, knowledgeable and professional Attorney!

I honestly cannot say enough about the stellar legal services Mark Rodriguez provided to me throughout a very complicated and lengthy divorce. From the moment I consulted with him regarding my case he was extremely professional, efficient and highly knowledgeable about Family Law and always went abov...e and beyond to explain the process and keep me informed every step of the way. There was never a time that I was not able to reach him within a very reasonable time frame. He returned every call, email and inquiry right away and was able to always explain things to me so I could understand the complexities and legal jargon and calm my worries. His professional work ethic and integrity are absolutely unparalleled. He made sure that I was beyond prepared for every hearing, mediation, deposition & court date and I never once worried that my Attorney would not be more prepared than any one else in the room. He always walked in prepared for any question or situation that may, could or would arise. The comfort knowing I had the most competent professional by my side made the worst experience of my life so much easier than it would have been had I not been represented by Mark. Because of the tireless efforts and expertise of Mark Rodriguez, I prevailed in every aspect of my divorce and he was actually even able to deliver a few added "bonuses" that I did not expect. We had endured so many unnecessary (and unsuccessful) stall tactics and attempted road blocks from the opposing side which made the divorce drag on for 2.5 years. Mark was successful in not only shooting down each attempt but was able to prove to the Judge that each of these attempts were unnecessary and a huge waste of time, money and resources. How refreshing it was to see and know that Mark had my best interest at heart and did not want to see me having to pay for legal fees I truly should not have incurred. He ensured that I was not taken advantage of in anyway by the opposing side and the impact of the precedence he set then is still felt to this day after the fact. I will never forget the day Mark called to tell me my 2.5 year battle was finally over. He was truly happy and excited for me and knew the relief he had brought not only into my life but into the lives of my 2 young children as well. I completely trusted Mark from the start and I am so glad I did. His hard work paid off and I am forever grateful to him for all he has done and continues to do for my children and I when a legal need arises. I will NEVER hesitate for a moment to refer Mark to family and friends and have already done so on numerous occasions. He is a true professional and expert in his field and I am so thankful I had Mark in my corner. Trust me, I would never want to be on the opposite side of the courtroom across from Mark...I have no doubt he will prevail in the end every time! THANK YOU just doesn't cover it Mark!
