Mark Christopher Lane

This attorney was good to start with, very proactive and seemed to be working for me. When a situation with my job forced me to relocate this firm not only stopped communicating with me and would not return a phone call but stopped providing updated case information and legal advice about how to pro...ceed with my case. Before I fired them I left 14 messages over 35 days and had only one call from them and that was only to ask a question posed by the opposing attorney still no advice for me on my relocation. This office then became very rude and when I fired them they submitted their withdrawal of counsel for the same day in a separate court as a hearing that they never informed me of was set. When I went to court for the withdrawal of counsel I was slammed with a new hearing and no notice of the hearing. Due to the information withheld from me by this firm I lost custody of my daughter to her mother who had not contacted or visited her for 2 straight years while she was residing in another country (not job related she just wanted to be there). This is the best attorney my ex-wife could have ever had. Their lack of communication has cost me not only their attorney fees and the custody of my daughter but the added expense of gaining adequate counsel to represent me. I am still in the process of undoing their inadequate and non-communicative representation.

I have been through 2 attorneys during my divorce. I finally found one that really cares. He is a christian and doesn't mind telling you that. He was compassionate and stuck with me through the whole thing. He has a great staff and Pam, the other attorney was more that knowledgable and helpful. ...I can't say enough good about my experience. It's horrible to have to get a divorce (when you don't want one), it's even more horrible to have multiple attorneys screw you over in the process.

I used this law office for my divorce. Mark talked and sounded very confident when I first met with him. After I signed on, I got pawned off to someone else in his office. I never got any communication or any of my questions answered. I was actually told by his assistant that them simply communic...ating with me required them to charge me and they were actually doing me a favor by not returning my phone calls. Mark demonstrated his incompetence throughout the whole ordeal, he screwed up my divorce decree, omitted or forgot simple things, ignored what I specifically asked to be included in my decree and I had to file a complaint in order to simply get my bill. If you used him and had a good experience, congrats you are one of the lucky ones. Mark made it perfectly clear that all he cares about is the money in your bank account. Do your homework.

This was the worst experience of my life dealing with Mark Lane's office. I never once called them to ask any questions. When we went to court (1 time) I was pawned me off to another attorney. They never returned my calls when I tried to get a bill and it took weeks to obtain one. Once I receive...d the bill it was outrageous for the service provided. I wouldn't even recommend him to my worst enemy. I will tell everyone I know about what Mark Lane is all about.
