A lawyer that will go above and beyond for you

He is a lawyer that will tell you like it is. No promises only results. Mark will go out of the way for you and use his resources to the best of his abilities to help with your case. I thought I would have the mark of a felon on my record but he was able to get me into a diversion program, so my char...ges were dropped. Moreover, he help with the expungement of my arrest record. I will recommend him to anyone that truly needs help getting out of a bad situation.

Assistance with an Extradition Case

I contacted Mr. Rogers with questions concerning an extradition case. I explained my situation and he immediately explained the options I had, which were esentially none. He explained that the sooner the extradition toolk place the sooner my relative could be released from jail. Even though this w...as a misdemeanor, the action occurred in another state and therefore no bond. He returned my call within 1 and 1/2 hour and was stratight and to the point. A true professional and I could tell from our conversation he was extremely knowledgeable about the law and an honest person.

Mark Rogers is the amazing and excellent attorney!

I am so grateful for Mark’s help with my case! I requested to consult with him on my situation and wanted to retain his services. Mark took the time to help me with my questions and provided the most excellent recommendation on my next steps! Not only did he not charge me for taking the time to help ...me with my questions, Mark also provided me with the most excellent advice on a method I should try which would save me a lot of money and help resolve the situation. Mark’s advice tremendously helped me with my case and saved me so much money! I’m so grateful for Mark’s help and advice! I highly recommend Mark for anyone who needs to consult with a lawyer for their case! Thank you so much Mark!

Professional, Prompt & Persistent!

I learned of an issue regarding my daughter which required retaining the services of an attorney. I was pressed for time to answer the issue and of course it was after 5pm and there were literally NO attorneys available at that time of day. Or if they were according to their recordings, they required... an appointment which could be within 48 hours. However, I stumbled upon Mark and was floored that he personally answered the call on my first attempt to contact him. I almost cried because I was so happy to actually speak to an attorney. Let me reiterate; not a secretary, not a recording, I spoke to him! I gave Mark a brief description of my daughter's issue and he provided me with a response of what could be done. I'm sure he likely receives thousands of calls, and he never made me feel as though my case wasn't worth his time. Nor did he immediately address any pricing as some attorneys would. He was honest and informed me of what he would be better suited to represent her regarding, and honest that another attorney within my state would be better suited if the secondary portion of the issue was raised. I appreciated that because he could've lied. Long story made shorter, he agreed to meet with my daughter and I the NEXT day and represent her in the matter. He spoke to my daughter directly, provided her with information and the outcome of the matter was all that I could have hoped for. This man was my guardian angel, and I will be eternally grateful for all his help, especially at the 11th hour. You won't find many attorneys like Mark Rogers; and if you are in need of an attorney don't think twice, hire him! It was the best decision I made.
