My husband spent money on his mistress

I hired Mark Lane to help me when my husband started spending all of our money buying his mistress expensive shoes, clothes, purses & a new apartment. All while our kids were doing without. Mr. lane had integrity when it comes to taking care of kids. He did npt let my ex get away with it! I couldn...’t pay all of my bill, but I tried. His staff said just to do what I could and if I couldn’t they wouldn’t hold it against me. The office staff is very helpful.

Best Attorney

I hired Mark after meeting with him during a free consultation. I needed help with a modification on my custody agreement, and he was very knowledgeable, so I felt comfortable burning him to handle my case. After some hard work, he got me the custody agreement modified to my liking. I am foreve...r grateful that he and his staff were able to help me through this.

Can't even remember clients

BEWARE......I use Mark Lane to help straighten out multiple decrees in one divorce. He didn't help me at all, the billing was ridiculous, Pam had no clue what was going on. Needless to say I thought the nightmare was over. I receive a knock on my door being served from my from a servicer that my ...ex-husband was trying to file for custody and guess who his attorney was MARK LANE MY ATTORNEY!! That means Mark had had consulted with my ex-husband and didn't even realize he had already represented me against him. What kind of whack job law firm are you running. I had to call and talk with multiple people and explain the situation and all they did was stutter and oh my gosh I'm going to have to call you back and I did finally get a call back and of course Mark Lane was recusing himself off the case. Does he not have a case log of who he has represented? Of course he does. And also he looks up all the dockets and sees who the attorneys were. How in the world did he take a retainer from my ex-husband and have me filed knowing good gosh darn well he was my attorney and I told him attorney-client privileged information and he consulted with my ex-husband and got privileged information that is scary you cannot tell me that that information can just slip through the cracks. BEWARE.. needless to say I got the best attorney in the DFW area and it all turned out great. But stay away from this firm

Posted by Jenny | July 02, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Abuse

Wonderful lawyer.

Mark Lane and his team are amazing. I had little hope of protecting my children from abuse at the hands of my ex-in-laws, who had court ordered visitation from another state (Arkansas). Because, of the abuse both of my children have mental health issues. Mark and his team got the case transferred to... a Texas court, once the case was moved to Texas (Tarrant county) my ex-in-laws have no access and my ex who admitted in court he knew his parents were abusing the children only gets visitation per the discretion of the mental health providers. Thank You! I would, will and do recommend Mark Lane to anyone seeking a lawyer.

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.
