A Great Lawyer, With Great Results
I was introduced to Mark by a colleague after a DUI in 2014. It had not been my first DUI, so I was not looking at a slap on a wrist. I was looking for the best Lawyer for my situation (Multiple Offender, Summit County (Stow Court)), and I was lucky enough to find him. Mark will shoot you straight an...

The only lawer I met so far that you can trust with peace of mind.
Well, I heard many horror stories about trafic lawers in general and personally experienced one last October when I didn't get respond till the last day and simply payed the fine. However, I had another case just yesterday and I posted my case to about 15 different law firms in Cleveland. And guess w...

Wouldn't want to go to court without him!
I was issued a traffic citation that, if convicted, carried a very heavy fine, serious jail time, and enough points to have my license suspended. Of course, I needed a lawyer to fight for me. I chose Mark. Like another reviewer, I found him randomly after a Google search and I'm extremely happy I did...
"Mr. Gardner is an exceptional attorney. Although I have been practicing law for 24 years as a judge, magistrate, law professor, prosecutor, and private attorney, I learn from his responses on Avvo every time that he posts. If I needed an attorney, I would hire him. I recommend him with no reservation. It would be the best investment of your life to hire him to represent you."
"Mark is a great advocate who always puts his clients interest first. He is very knowledgeable and skilled in representing his clients. I have no hesitation in recommending to person who finds himself charged with a crime,"
"I endorse this lawyer. Mark is an exceptional and distinguished DUI and criminal defense attorney. His untiring zeal in the pursuit of truth and justice for his clients is exceptional. Moreover, Mark serves as a leader among his peers in Ohio by helping other lawyers improve their knowledge and trial skills. I commend Mark’s approach to DUI and criminal defense and I am grateful for the example he sets for his peers."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mark is a contributor to a resource shared by those practicing DUI defense. He is tough, smart and indefatigable. If you have a DUI in greater Cleveland, you'd be wise to hire him. Think you can't afford him? You CAN'T afford NOT to hire him."
"This profile should list that Mark was zealously defending his client when he was reprimanded by the Supreme Court. Perhaps it was overly passionate plea on behalf of his client but he is an excellent attorney."
"I have had privilege of speaking at numerous seminars that Mr. Gardner was also speaking at. Mark shares his ideas and work products without expecting anything in return. He is a frequent and highly sought after speaker at Continuing Legal Education seminars on the topic of DUI/OVI defense. If I were charged with OVI, I would want Mark Gardner representing me!"

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2003.
Suspension For Term issued in OH, 2003
updated on 02/16/2019Suspended for term means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.
“As the saying goes, “To err is human, to forgive is divine.” To which I’ll add: “To drain language of it's ordinary meaning is quite judicial, and the results rarely divine." Especially for me in this case. Truth IS the most important commodity we have in this life.”
