A++ to Mark Sessums

Mark has been my attorney for my child's custody case. It has been a long two and a half year fight, and I cannot say enough positive things about Mark and his staff. Throughout the entire process Mark has always kept me well informed and was very professional. Most importantly, he was accessible to ...me at all times. Mark knew when it was important to get back to me right away, and he did. Even if it was on a Sunday. This was very important to me, and it is hard to find these days. During the trial Mark was well prepared. He did an extraordinary job for me. We did win the trial, and even if the outcome would have been different, I could have not been more pleased with Mark and his staff. No deadlines were ever missed, and I always received courteous reminders if I did not turn in information that I was supposed to provide. Bottom line is that words cannot describe the joy I feel to continue to have my child with me. I know Mark and his staff were instrumental, and with a different attorney I am not sure if I would have won. It was a tough battle. Thank you Mark and Phyllis!

An amazing Advocate and Counselor

Mark Sessums is a man of great integrity. I used Mark to fight for custody of my daughter in which I had given temporarily to her father on a 50/50 basis due to some bad choices I had made that needed to be worked out. Despite what the past looked like in my life, Mark believed in me. He was always v...ery accessible which is very hard to do given his schedule. His staff is just as amazing as he is. Mark was a true blessing in my life and helped me regain custody of my daughter. He is a an amazing attorney who has the values that few attorneys have. He was always willing to listen when I had concerns and always willing to go beyond what he is called to do. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney.

Helped with the Hard Times

There were times I would have liked him to be a little more aggressive in trying to achieve certaian goals. But overall his calm, realistic and professional attitude helped me understand the sytem and how to find the best strategies to achieve my goals. I was worried that on my own I would not have... the protection of my relationship with my child and now I feel secure about our future.
