Full Settlement Auto Accident

I would highly recommend Mark Mingo as a personal attorney. Mark was very personal and on top of all aspects of the case. We settled out of court with the full amount we requested. I will use Mark and his firm again if the need arises. You will not find a better Lawyer!!

Mark is an amazing Laywer

Motorcycle accident. First I need to say Mark and his staff are awesome people to work with. There have been several times my family and friends have worked with Mark and the outcome always the same great to work with, Mark and staff keep you up dated and help you every step of the way. For my motorc...ycle accident it went very well. Mark listened to me and kept me informed throughout the whole process. Kim, Marks paralegal is also amazing to work with, very on top of everything and kept me informed as well. Mark has a great team and we will always call Mark when needed. I cannot say enough about Mark, he is a great lawyer and a human being.

Auto accident settlement

I am pleased to highly recommend, Mark J Mingo. After a serious auto accident, during which I was hit by an unlicensed, uninsured and soon to be bankrupt driver, I chose to consult Mark Mingo and hired him to handle my case. Mark was very helpful, understanding, conscientious and very easy to work wi...th. My injury turned out to be more serious than I or doctors had at first realized and Mark did an excellent job understanding the intricate and obscure medical issues involved and advising me on the case. We were scheduled for trial but went through a mediation process first. I received far more money than I had first expected. Money does not heal permanent disability but in the end I feel that the settlement was fair to both sides. After the settlement, Mark promptly sent me my share of the funds and then continued to work on the details of my case and cleared up all lingering issues with other medical insurers and bills and then sent those additional funds. I greatly appreciate his counsel, help and efforts on my behalf.

Injury from car accident

Mark was very professional and was easy to work with for my wife's car accident claim. He came in last minute to take the case and we are very grateful for that. We would recommend Mark Mingo to anyone who has had injuries from a car accident. We had a very complicated case with previous a car accide...nt, pre-existing injuries and complicated medical history, and Mark stepped up to help us out.

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.
