HIRE MARK!

When the time came to look for an attorney I had no idea where to look or start. During my search I luckily found Mark's profile and I am so happy I did. Upon reading his amazing reviews I was certain I chose the right one! Mark is a straight shooter and very supportive. When in doubt he was always v...ery clear to me about what steps needed to be taken and made me aware of my options. He was very responsive to text/emails during this sensitive time and guided me through. I didn't think I would be able to settle my custody case as soon as I did but Mark made that happen for me and also made sure I got everything I asked for. I didn't feel like just another case. He fought for my daughter and I and I truly felt he had our best interest at heart. He thought of things to bring up or fit in to my custody arrangement that were beneficial to me that I didn't even think of. I would hire Mark again down the road if I ever needed a lawyer. He is intelligent, trustworthy, supportive and punctual. Because of Mark I have my daughter with me and that's all that matters!

Super attorney

Was hired for custody matter. He kept me informed at all stages. We discussed many options and he was always available to discuss my case. I saw one whatove review and if you won’t pay your attorney you can’t expect attorneys to work for free. He accepted payments that I made on time and he was v...ery diligent about my case! Would hire again!

adoption

I was a foster parent taking care of my grandson, I did everything that was asked of me. Didn't matter I felt that the system was going to fail me so I hired Mark to protect me and represent me in court, at first it seemed to make things worse but in the end Mark was able to help me keep my grandson ... and adopt him. Mark was a man of his word I am so thankful for his help, I wouldn't have gotten to keep my grandson without his help.

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.
