Terrible Attorney
Worst attorney I've dealt with in my life. Was referred to him by my sister who works with his aunt. I had a fairly simple divorce that I needed assistance with. He's incredibly unresponsive. Takes him days to return an email. Once he called me to yell at me because in an email I wrote to him I told ...
I am sorry that this person feels the way that they do, but I responded to 77 emails during this client's case that was less than sixty days long. Every case is important to me, and if this one was not I certainly would not have resolved it in under 60 days. This client was upset when I did not respond within a couple of hours to an email. I called the client after business hours to explain that I was in court and in mediation that day, and simply could not respond immediately, and my immediate response was not even necessary as it was pertaining to an agreed divorce decree that I had drafted because the case was to be agreed. After the conversation, and after the case was not agreed by the other side, the client actually reinstated his retainer, and chose to have me continue to represent him. The simple fact is that I went over and above what most attorneys would have done in this case by not only responding to an excessive amount of emails, but also by resolving the case in less than 60 days, and saving the client tens of thousands of dollars in attorney's fees. I have actually spoken with Mr. Friant, and have answered some of his questions about his lawsuit since he posted this review, and I believe that we have resolved any issues that he may have had. I strive to provide the best service possible to each and every client, and to communicate effectively.

Great Attorney
I would highly recommend Mark as your family law attorney. I hired him for my child custody case. He is very knowledgeable and very well liked in the courts. Marks demeanor, compassion and confidence as a lawyer eased my mind and anxiety about my case. I was stressed and worried about my court d...

Wrongful termination
When my ex tried to terminate my rights to my only son in 2012, I was distraught. I am so thankful I found Mark at the time I did. He was so determined and NEVER gave up or settled for less than the best. Finally after all of the battles with my ex we won. I know he gave it his all and put in a lot o...
