Wonderful in All Aspects!

Mark represented my husband and I few years ago during a nasty case with his ex. He was impressive before the judge to say the least. He handled all responses with tough professionalism and lead us to a smooth and timely conclusion after several months of headaches with a previous attorney. He not on...ly communicated clearly about what to expect during hearings, but spent a lot of time preparing for all possible scenarios. Our only regret is not hiring him sooner. You’re in good hands with Mark in your corner!

Straightforward, honest and efficient

If there's any chance your divorce could become contentious, you need strong, experienced counsel. In retaining Mark Scroggins, I had all that and more. He was direct, honest, strategic, always prepared, responsive and ever adaptive to whatever came our way during my divorce. He was always upfront... with me and able to articulate the options and possible outcomes so I could make the best possible choices. As great a job as he did litigating my case and helping both me and my daughter, the thing I most valued was his candid, straightforward approach when giving me advice, something you absolutely need during an emotional time. His strong, steady way was a great source of confidence and support throughout the matter. When all was said and done, he helped me achieve the objectives I laid out to him at the beginning of our relationship.

Thanks for the kind review. Child custody matters are always difficult, especially when they are contentious. I always make a point of shooting straight with my clients so they know both the good and the bad going into a situation. That way, sound decision on how to proceed can be made and positive outcomes can be achieved.

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.
