Mark Gardner is The One
I was facing a DL suspension, and though I never met the guy in person, he handled my case like the pro that he is. I didn't even have to come to court! He has a great birds-eye view over the situation and approaches it realistically, no empty promises or "maybe's". The guy spoke, predicted, and exec...

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...

High service, Responsive, and Caring - Couldn't ask for more
I am from out of state and received a speeding ticket in Ohio. I didn't know who to contact and found Mark rather randomly, via his Website. I was *very* lucky - he responded immediately; gave me thorough and very useful advice; answered all of my follow-up questions quickly and patiently; and re...

Mark did exactly what he promised and without any discrepancies
Mark promised to get me out of a potential license suspension ticket. It would have brought me to 12 points and I would have potentially lost my job because of it. He met with me, told me exactly what would happen and that I did not even need to show up for my court date. For the reasonable price he...
"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!"

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.”
