Review Marc Harden

Thank you Marc Harden!

Posted by

Marc Haden – 5 Star Lawyer, along with his 5 Star Assistant, Monica Cherry, worked tirelessly on our behalf to support and assist our family after an unfortunate car accident while vacationing in Colorado. Marc and Monica were there to guide and advocate for us through the medical and auto insurance processes and always kept us informed and up-to-date along the way. They just took care of things, all with professionalism, courtesy, and trustworthiness. Communication from their office was always friendly, timely and responsive. In addition, they went above and beyond to ensure a successful transition of my minor son’s case from Colorado to California. It is with sincere gratitude and appreciation for Marc and his staff that I highly recommend Zaner Harden Law. Marc is truly the best of the best because he cares and is committed to every person he represents. Thank you Marc!

Successful Settlement, Professional Lawyer

Posted by

My husband and I hired Marc to represent me after I was hit in a car accident that left me with a broken wrist. As a pregnant mother of 4 I needed someone who was both compassionate and professional, and Marc was definitely both. He and his team at Zaner-Harden law worked hard to get me a settlement that matched the nature of my injury. We were very pleased with their communication, thoroughness, and results. Thanks so much!

Client Review - Excellent Handling

Posted by

I was a client of Zaner Harden when I was struck at a red light while on a motorcycle. My case was handled by Marc Harden and his excellent support staff, Monica Cherry and Mara Essick as quickly and professionally as possible despite several setbacks from a difficult insurance carrier, and they obtained the best possible result for my case. Absolute pleasure working with all involved, stellar results, strong knowledge of the insurance arena, and hard negotiators.

Exceptional Firm

Posted by

Marc and his team have been wonderful to work with. They truly cared about me and my well being through the entire claim. They communicated with me as the process moved forward so I was always in the know. It can be a lengthy process dealing with insurance companies but they made the entire undertaking, that could have been a real burden, very seamless and much less of a headache. All of the work was taken off my plate so I could simply focus on healing and getting back to 100%. I would recommend them to any friend or family member if they find themselves in need of a personal injury attorney.

Great attorney and team

Marc was the perfect choice for my case. He and his team are great to work with. They are very responsive and made me feel very comfortable. I knew I was good hands. My injury resulted in a neck fusion. Marc and his team were great, following up and keeping me informed during my recovery. I would recommend Marc to any of my friends and family.

Great Attorney

Posted by

Marc was a great lawyer after I was in a motorcycle accident. After my accident I felt like the at fault driver's insurance company was trying to attack me- it felt awful. The first attorney I hired consulted Marc's firm and I immediately felt taken care of. Marc met with me in person and seemed genuinely interested in pursuing the best outcome for my case. His team consistently touched base with me to check on my treatment and my well being while keeping me up to date on the status of my case. I can't describe the feeling of being taken care of after the stress of an accident. I would highly recommend Marc and his team to anyone in a similar position.

Wonderful experience, wonderful attorney!!!

Posted by

I was represented by Marc Harden for a bad car crash I went through on Thanksgiving. I'm married to a lawyer and so I was aware of Marc's reputation for being a great personal injury trial lawyer. I was not disappointed in that respect - the representation was top notch. Yet I was even more impressed by the personal care that Marc and his team provided to me. They made sure that I went to the absolute best doctors, that all my losses were accounted for, and that I was always in the loop on my case. I could not be happier with Marc and his team at Zaner Harden Law and would highly recommend him.

An excellent experience

I was very fortunate to be represented by Marc Harden after my car accident. I was impressed by his sincerity, compassion and confidence in our first meeting. My case went to trial after a long, difficult two years and during that time, Marc kept me up to date, was very supportive and always available to me in person, by phone or email. I was awed by his dedication, preparation, diligence and courtroom skills during the trial and knew that I had put my trust in the right person. His hard work provided me with a great outcome and I will forever be grateful, I respect Marc as an excellent attorney and as a wonderful human being who treats his clients with respect, dignity and caring.

I had an excellent experience with Marc Harden!

Marc was amazing to work with! He was always very responsive and easy to reach and communicate with. His paralegal, Monica, was also amazing to work with. They truly cared about my situation and did everything they could to make it an easier process for me and ensure that I was pleased with the results. They were there for me every step of the way, from documenting my injuries and referring the best doctors for treatment to explaining the legal process and what I could and should expect from working with insurance companies regarding my car accident. I definitely recommend using Zaner Harden Law if you want a law firm that is professional, knows their stuff, and truly cares about their clients (and who wouldn't want that?)

Marc is a superior personal injury attorney and trial lawyer.
