Great Service and Reasonable Price

Mark assisted us with the adoption of our adult daughter. He responded to our inquiry quickly, arranged for a convenient hearing via zoom, and was very courteous throughout the entire process. He is a very caring attorney. The cost for his services was very transparent and very reasonable. We highly ...recommend him for adoption services!

An Excellent Choice

After researching various lawyers in and around the greater San Antonio area I decided on Mark. Upon my initial contact I never had reason to doubt that decision. Having need of legal work done regarding my child support case I laid out the essentials as I knew them to Mark and he guided me through... the process flawlessly. With the understanding that the other party involved may not always be the most cooperative, Mark unflinchingly worked on my behalf to achieve the outcome that was both fair and in the best interests of all parties involved. Weathering the inevitable delays inherent with anything related to the courts, Mark calmly and coolly kept me updated on the status of the petition: what documentation was needed or still pending resolution, where it was at, and the projected time-frame before it would be completed. I really could not have asked for a more effective counsel in my time of need. Not only have I recommended him to others, I have myself returned to him for work regarding adoption proceedings. Mark truly is a cut above when it comes to active communication and the understanding that while the law may be the norm for him, it still leaves most of us in the dark and flailing. His guidance got me through what could have been an extremely stressful circumstance with relative ease.
