Mark Sherman Poling

At times , life hands us all a dilemma in some way, shape or form. I have had my fair share. However, in my case... Mark Poling has gone above and beyond what other lawyers have ever done for me. He has worked diligently to see that my child support battle was fair and handled properly after many fai...led attempts on my own. He is a true advocate for good people going through a bad time. When he says he is for “People First,” he means it. Unfortunately, I’ve hired many attorneys for my battles, but Mark surpasses them all. He never let me down, get run over and he spoke up for me when others would’ve just settled for the same old song and dance the AG has to offer parents. He is a 5-star, attorney! I can never be grateful enough nor can I say enough good things about him and his practice. There’s no doubt in my mind, and let there be none in yours, who you should hire here! Mark Poling Law is a great place to find help and real answers to your dilemma. I can attest to it! Thank you Mark! To us, your the best!

Mark was absolutely wonderful. After my ex-husband failed to place my child on the plane for a visit, I found myself hearing from the Sheriff's off that "this was a civil matter and I must contact an attorney" if I wanted to see my child. I was dumbfounded- I thought the custody arrangement that was ...in place actually stopped this kind of thing. In a panic I called several lawyers in the San Antonio area looking for help. I had no idea what to do or how to do it. Mark called me back after I left a voicemail within approximately two hours. Before we even discussed fees and retainers (which I didn't think I would be able to pay at the time), Mark advised me on the actions that he would take and what he needed from me. He knew I was in a total panic and managed not only to calm me down, but also took immediate action to get this issue resolved. Mark worked with me in regards to payments. As a single mom, coming up with an insane retainer fee like most of the other lawyers wanted before they would speak with me was terrifying. Mark worked with me and we were able to reach something that I could actually afford. I am so incredibly grateful to find him. This process hasn't be easy, but Mark has guided me through the entire thing. I never had to wait for answer, he was/is entirely accessible. My telephone calls and e-mails are answered promptly. The staff at Ecke and Poling have been so nice and I never once have been given any kind of run around whatsoever. The best thing about Mark is that he's remained committed to doing the right thing- as I am in this process. It has been extremely important that what we do is the right thing for my child- not the right thing for me, or anyone else. Mark has done what is best and what is reasonable. At no time have I been led to believe that something could be done when it couldn't (or shouldn't). He spelled out what I can expect and what is reasonable to expect. He's been completely honest- even sometimes when I didn't want him to be. There have been no surprises through this process and he has countered the opposition swiftly and smartly. He anticipated what the opposing side would do before they even did it and he was ready when they did. I could go on and on... Bottom line, if you're looking for an attorney that will treat you with respect and truly care about what is happening, Mark is an excellent choice.
