Mark Christopher Lane

I have been locked in a custody Battle for almost a year now. As a single father in Texas I knew my chances were slim, Mark Lane and his paralegals gave done nothing to reassure me. I only met Mr. Lane at my court appearance which he showed up to THREE HOURS LATE. And they have this nasty habit of ne...ver answering your phone calls but they still charge you $150 for calling them. Possibly the worst attorney ever, they are just out to make a buck. The only time I hear from them is when they want money but when I have a question about my case I am all alone. Don't get this guy folks.

I hired this guy after a Google search to process a simple uncontested divorce. He never answered his phone. I couldn't even get his paralegal to call me back. He delayed processing the paperwork for a couple months. During that period my wife decided she no longer wanted an uncontested divorce. He... asked for another $2000 up front to continue handling my case at $400/hr. I questioned him about the lack of responsiveness and you wouldn't believe the reaction I got. He started curing at me! Dropped the F-bomb. Said he didn't want to listen to my b!tching. When I asked him to stop cursing he told me to get out of his office and that he would be billing me. For what I don't know! One minute he's talking about how hurtful this divorce must be the next he's cursing me out so loud it scared the people in the lobby. I stood there and asked why things escalated so quickly. He then threatening to call the police if I didn't leave immediately. It was all very bizarre. As I mentioned I had trouble getting my calls returned, s before this incident but AFTER hiring him I went to look up some reviews. I found a couple that described identical circumstances where he started yelling and cursing. Really bizarre and unprofessional. I wonder if he didn't delay the paperwork just so my wife might change this to a contested divorce and he could rack up fees. This is truly a nasty little man. Do yourself a favor. If you read this before hiring him don't. If you've already hired him consider cutting your losses.

I highly doubt about the legitimacy of all these five star reviews for Attorney Mark Lane. I was skeptical about his office due to some bad reviews but I hired him. The moment I hired all turn out to be true. Nothing was done about my case in two months, no response and charged me thousands of dolla...r. I receive one email from Mark during whole period. I had asked billing statements they did not provide me. I flew out of state to his office and requested appointment earlier, nobody was able to meet , they all were busy with the emergency cases. I am sure someone from Mark Lane will reply to this post that I was not happy with result or I am angry person. Guess what there were no result, no progress. Please leave your name, I can share more details as well. I would highly recommend to not hire Mark lane office. Hire someone who is approachable and professional in conduct.

I have been a client for almost 9 years.. that is a long time of dealing with someone. I am very pleased with my experiences and I will always hire Mark Lane when I am needing family law help. From day one, I have had Mark's cell phone and email address. I never leave messages. If I need to talk to M...ark, I email him or send a text. He is a busy man! He always gets back to me. I had an emergency on a Saturday evening; I texted. Mark called me immediately and calmed me down. First thing Monday morning, I was in Mark's office filing a protective order. I realize that I am not his only client and he isn't going to jump every time I call; but when I need him because of an emergency, I have no doubt he will be there. He has always shown up to court prepared and ready to go. I have a very high conflict situation and he has been on top of my case since the day I hired him. I will always recommend Mark to my friends.
