Seamless

Mark was very straightforward about costs and the overall process. He made a difficult life event to as smoothly as it could. He is very responsive, typically giving same day email or text response. He made an overwhelming process seem more doable. Everything was handled very promptly and thoroughly,... giving me more peace at the end of the process.

Great Service - Divorce

Mark was a straight shooter, easy to communicate with, and always answered within a timely manner. Made my divorce go as smooth as it could. I'd like to also make sure to mention his wife, Jennifer, was very helpful for the communications between me and my now ex-husband. Hoping I don't need the s...ervices again but would definitely recommend or use again if needed. Thank you Mark & Jennifer!

Contested Divorce with Children

Mark fought for me every step of the way from day 1. My ex-wife tried to take my kids away by making false allegations and leave me no custody. Not only did Mark do what was necessary to help prevent that, he was pivotal ensuring I received 50/50 custody. He was very responsive and supportive of all ...my questions & concerns. I can’t thank you enough.

Excellent Divorce/Family Lawyer

If you need a good family/divorce counsel, do yourself a favor and look no further! I spent months with a lawyer that did nothing for my case, super passive, and uninterested. I felt alone, lost, stressed, and helpless. Not to mention I did not trust her nor felt she had my best interest in mind o...r provided me the right counsel. Mark was great from the very beginning. I could sense his drive, knowledge, and willingness to help resolve the case. I did not feel any doubts in hiring. I stopped feeling alone and in despair during this whole process immediately. He truly reads and listens, so you do not have to keep repeating details and facts. He provided great counsel, was always professional, straightforward, understanding, available, and super responsive.
