Mark Thomas Freeman

Having been in political positions and viewing numerous trials and representations, I have a good comparison from a professional and personal perspective. Mark's communication of law and stratigies is superb. We were extremely comfortable during the trial as Mark's explanation of what was happeni...ng from both the plaintiff and defendant's position was very helpful. His ability to examine expert testimony documents is superb. This skill and his ability to cross examine expert testimony during the trial is paramount to the process. Mark stratigecally planned and executed our defense. He is more than adequate and demonstrates upmost professionalism. The repor he exhibits with apposing council and the judge is professional and effective. What impressed me the most was his ability to make key points through various avenues. He effectively stressed important facts by cross examining a witness or through presentations of motions. No matter the outcome of our trial, we feel that we could not have been represented any better. Our position was presented in the best way possible. After reflecting back over the entire process, we feel nothing was left out. Mark listened to every thing we said and found a way to incorporate our feelings and position effectively. We would definitely use him again in any situation. Thank you Mark for making such a stressful and humiliating process bearable.

I retained attorney mark freeman in feb. 2012, for a custody dispute that had begun in California then had a change of venue to Davidson county Tn. During the course of our litigation mark kept me informed of things that were going on. From getting the file transferred from California to Tennessee, f...ilings of the other party, and discussions he had with the other parties counsel. When it came to depositions mark was very skilled. He prepared me very well to be questioned by asking me tough questions so that when I was asked them in court or at deposition I would get the "deer in headlights" look. When questioning the opposing side he was very skilled and crafty in how he would ask questions. Building a box around the defendant so that when he asked the critical questions there was no way they could not answer the way we wanted or avoid telling us the truth we wanted to hear. There were many hearings and two trials during my custody litigation. During both hearings and trials, mark would very clearly present our case to the magistrate or judge. He had gone over with me the points of a comparative fitness test for child custody and we talked about how to give my testimony so that we covered those points. Mark in court was very confident and that confidence helped me to feel confident so that I could focus on giving testimony and responding well to being cross-examined. Through out the time I've worked with mark freeman, he would take the time have phone conversations with me, answering all my questions, explaining everything that was transpiring and what it meant. What our strategy was and what he felt the oppositions strategy was. He knew what motions to file in response to events that had taken place in the defendants life that had affected our case. I should mention that since I live in California and there is a two hour time difference, mark would take the time have these conversations with me on a Saturday or Sunday evening at what would of been ten o'clock in the evening for him. Although the custody matter has been resolved now, there is still so issues that I will need marks services for. We have a trial for contempt since my child's mother is not paying me child support, and I sure there will be requests to modify the parenting plan. Mark told me in the beginning of this that we had a good case that we could win, he was always honest with me and is very trustworthy. I would recommend him to anyone who has child custody or civil litigation issues.
