Mark Mcentire Childress

Creative and punctual on child custody case. Mr. Childress took time to understand details of these matters and identified several avenues to explore in efforts to get custody of my girls. Very fair and honest with high standards fueled by integrity and dedication. After a few short weeks custody sui...t was won, and much appreciated. More than pleased with this attorney.

So I don't have the time to really explain my entire situation and how Mark handled it, but I will say that the guy is smart, he knows what he is doing, he will make the best decision for you without you having to worry about it, just listen to what he says and trust him and he will take care of you.... Thank You Mark! Very intelligent, organized, and prompt lawyer. He's got his head on his shoulders and takes care of his business. I respect this man. If I have any further issues he is going to be the first guy I call.

I am in tears writing about this attorney and never have done a review before but... I just cannot let any other person/family go threw what mine has gone threw. I will first start off with he has stripped us of our life savings, we are a younger couple and are starting out new in life together so le...t's just say $10,000 plus dollars is a lot for us when we could have used this money else where. He has left us financially upside down, without and custody/visitation rights to children, emotionally devastated and frankly scared of attorneys and judges!!! This was supposed to be a pretty common easy case as Mark claimed, he met us on a Saturday and things seemed fine gave him all the money he asked for upfront. Went to the first hearing didn't go as Mark stated then of course he wanted more money to proceed which was paid. Went to a mediation which was awful oh let me add on our day of court he doesn't have you get to his office a little to early to prep and prepare you of what to come no Mark does that when you walk to the court house out of breath and loud passing busses and cars drive by. So back to the mediation nothing is worked out by either side so Mark states ok we are at a zero balance now what we can do is move forward with a trial and I want to get this one particular judge but.... Doing that I need another $5000 so we go home think about it called his office few days later with some questions I will not say names but she states oh I am not sure I will get back with you well she never does so about a week goes by after few calls to his office she finally calls back and first thing she says is by the way Mark says you have an outstanding balance and in order to move forward you need to pay that plus the $5000 so we go back and fourth over payment Mark stated last week I had a zero balance... Well you can never get a straight answer it's always I'll have to get back with you with this one particular woman. Make a long story short here Mark then stated he was dropping me as a client for non payment so not knowing what to do court coming up I need an attorney I paid him biggest mistake ever! He never did what he said he was going to do in court!!! He blames me as to why the court was not favoring him. Well the real facts are he doesn't really care his heart isn't into his career he is all About being and playing the part of a rich pretty boy attorney which he does do that well. His office is a mess they never know what the heck is going on you constantly have to remind them I felt like I was the attorney I gathered information and paperwork at the end I kick myself wondering why I even got an attorney. I am in such a mess and have zero I mean zero Time with my beautiful children which is killing me. I had to hire another attorney and she cannot believe the mess Mark allowed my to be in!!! She also states why didn't we show up to court on such and such date well..... Answer is Mark never did, he said he was billed us for it but never did! Needless to say I am the type of person if I have bad service or bad taste in my mouth I just look away and never go back but with Mark and his office I have to warn others... We are taking about lives and families here. Please please please look elsewhere do your homework I did not and I am severely paying the price and now I can't afford to dig myself out of Marks mess with a real attorney!! Good luck we didn't have any!!
