Mark Stephen Hanks

As I walked into Attorney Hanks office I was expecting to be interviewing just another attorney,& adding his name to the hat of names to pull from. I had already spoken to several attorneys & was really ready to to make a decision cause time was not on my side.I had already had two of my top choices ...by referrals & looking into reviews & back grounds. My case was a very difficult one,up until i met with Attorney Hanks & he was able to immediately shed light & assure a peace of mind to my custody issue. Now,we all know that a custody dispute is a very extremely ,sensitive & emotional issue to resolve & we must equip our self's with the most effective legal counsel possible.Someone who you can trust( Mark Hanks) someone who can/&will get the job done(Mark Hanks),& with the experience & knowledgeable strategic methods this man truly knows the law in & out. Attorney Hanks is extremely knowledgeable & has the skills to get the job done in full confidence, he treated me & my issues as if they was his own, Attorney Hanks did not make a million promises & big boastful talk without looking into my case & knowing the facts First ,he listened to my concerned & advised me of the best legal advice possible. Attorney Hanks was not like most attorneys & made sure he quoted me a retainer fee in his replying recommendations, in fact it was the last thing we discussed "Only" because i was ready to move forward. Last id like to add before speaking to Attorney Hanks i was unable to sleep or eat with the thoughts of a possibility i may loose my son, but after speaking to & hiring attorney hanks i walked out of his office ready for anything & everything opposing counsel & my ex would though my way.So if your attorney shopping as we all must do from time to time this is your man to trust to get the job done. I DID!!!!

Back in 2012 a felony charge was brought against me. Before Attorney Hanks, P.A., I had hired another local attorney to represent me. After spending a fortune in retainer fees with the other attorney, I eventually realized I needed an attorney who would believe me, and do everything possible to def...end my rights. I was facing a minimum five years of prison if found guilty after trial. Almost immediately after switching attorneys and retaining Attorney Hanks, P.A., he located previously, undiscovered evidence in my case. Over the following 13 months, he and his team launched a massive investigation into the circumstances surrounding my case. After nine depositions of SPPD police officers and their staff, and after ordering recordings, personnel files, and department policies, Attorney Hanks teamed up with an expert witness and private forensic analyst to build a very strong defense for my innocence. His defense was strong enough that even though I was facing 5 years, we turned down two separate State offers of 30 days in jail. He was more than prepared to take my case to trial. After more than a year of proactive defense work, Attorney Hanks had my charge dropped to a misdemeanor. I served no jail time, I had no probation, and I paid a miminal fine. Thank God for the work done through Attorney Hanks, P.A. They continued to fight for my rights and they never backed down from getting me justice Djakarta, St. Petersburg

My ex husband was a criminal while we were married and Mark got us out of plenty of binds. I was always very satisfied with Mark's services, so I went back to Attorney Hanks for divorcing my ex's as well. There is NO divorce too complicated for Mark. My ex husband was violent, he endangered our kid...s, he attempted to hide the business's assets to lower child and spousal support. None of it was too much for this attorney to handle. Thanks a million Mark.

From the time that I stepped into Mark’s office, I knew he was the right person to represent me in my divorce. He was honest, knowledgeable and candid throughout the whole process. He is exactly what I was looking for in an attorney. Many thanks to Mark Hanks! I would recommend Mark Hanks to ...friends and family!
