Excellent Choice

I highly recommend Mark...he helped me with a child support modification. Although this was uncontested, I could tell that if it would have been, Mark would have been the person to defend me in court. Communication was always the same day in terms of his responses to my questions which is a big part... of having an attorney you can trust. Without hesitation I would recommend Mark for your legal matters.

THE REAL DEAL!!

Mark’s responsiveness and attention to detail is phenomenal. His ability to navigate you through the process is second to none. Mark is an attorney that doesn’t just find ways to have billable hours like most in his profession. He works hard to keep cost down and finds ways to give his clients the... most favorable outcome possible. Mark is definitely an attorney that truly puts his clients first in all that he does. I would highly recommend Mark if you are looking for an attorney that truly gets results for his clients!

Most professional lawyer around

I've worked with Mark twice now and I would never use another lawyer. He was very professional, and always makes you feel like you are his only client even when he's super busy. Others know you mean business when his name comes up. Couldn't be happier to have him on my side.

Highly Recommended

I had never worked with an attorney before and Mark immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that I had chosen the right attorney. Mark was always quick to respond to my many questions and was always professional and friendly to work with. I will highly recommend Mark to anyone I know tha...t is looking to hire an attorney.

Highly Recommend

I would recommend Mark Allen to anyone looking for a great attorney. He made what was an uncomfortable, not fun situation of divorce; he made me feel comfortable and kept me very informed through the entire process. He knew everything I had questions about and I know he fought for me. I've never h...ad an attorney up until working with Mark, I would suggest him over any one else. He does a great job.

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.
