Look No Further

I found myself in a bind when I met Mark. My previous lawyer grossly neglected my case. My prior lawyer caused me to nearly miss a critical deadline two days away, and wouldn’t even agree to speak with me until after the deadline. Mark jumped in reviewing the details of my case on a Sunday. He gather...ed the pertinent content i.e. Ohio codes, statutes and case laws, to succinctly file - meeting my deadline the next day!. Mark’s articulate defense resulted in the restoration of my eleven year Parenting Plan: me returning Residential Parent, and reversing Sole Parenting wrongfully given to my Ex-spouse. Not only did I find a lawyer in a pinch - but caliber lawyer on all fronts. Mark listens to requests, and frames and refines his defense material around the core requests. Mark is a gem because he adds the extra piece lacking from many lawyers – authentic spoken and demonstrated empathy for whom he represents – the immediate client, and extended parties. I have gone through four lacking lawyers in over almost 12 years - fighting to protect my parenting time. I discovered Mark is what a great lawyer looks like!

Trustworthy, Honest, Confident - Mark is great and we are forever thankful!

I'm so thankful, and extremely grateful to Mark for his hard work and dedication. He's a trustworthy attorney and I feel confident and comfortable letting him handle matters that affect my family. Our most recent custody case situation was resolved quickly and beyond satisfactorily, for the absolut...e good of my children. I couldn't be happier with it's outcome, and I couldn't be more thankful to Mark for all that he has done. I will be a client for life and I would recommend him to absolutely anyone.

Mark DeYoung-Honest, Ethical, Productive and Effective!

Mark DeYoung is an excellent, direct, honest and ethical attorney who loves what he does and he does it for all of the RIGHT reasons; to support and protect what's right, true and fair. Mark DeYoung took over my case, analyzed the past and present information, dove right in and understood EXACTLY wha...t needed to be done for the best outcome of all concerned. He clearly understood our needs as well as the imbalanced nature of our unique situation. And, in the end, we won! I would HIGHLY recommend Mark DeYoung!

Parental Custody Modification

Mark has represented me for about one year now and through some of the hardest familial challenges I have faced. The result ended in my favor and it is surely by Mark's quick response to concerning matters as they arose. He kept my children's safety a priority and was always available for advise. As ...a mom, there is nothing more valuable than my children. He shows he cares through his attentiveness with the case and ability to be empathetic of ones situation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
