FANTASTIC LAWYER!!!

Mark defiantly went above and beyond. He met every expectation of mine, and helped me get through a custody case. Mark always gave me detailed descriptions of my legal matter and let me know what problems to expect, how they'll be handled, and when things will happen. He always made everything clear ...to me and was on top of everything, and always got back to me within the day. AWESOME AWESOME GUY!! I refer him to all family and friends. I don't think I could have chosen a better person to represent me. YOUR ROCK MARK! :)

amazing lawyer

Mark, did an amazing job helping my daughter get custody of her son. Worked with me for payments. He was just absolutely amazing and greatly appreciated!

Amazing to work with!!

I hired Mark at the beginning of one nasty custody battle, and am so glad I chose him! I wasn't sure I was making the right choice, or even how to go about choosing a lawyer as the whole experience was new to me, but Mark quickly put those fears to rest! He talked me through the whole process, worked... with us on payments, and helped talk me down when I was getting too heated by things. In the end we were able to file for default thanks to his attention to detail and knowledge of the law, and were granted what we had only dreamed of! Mark was amazing, and I'll be sure to use him for any kind of legal matter I have in the future!

Making legal easier

Unfortunately I had to seek out a lawyer for custody reasons. This, as you can imagine is an extremely difficult process. I found Mark Means and hired him immediately. He was genuine, but straight to the point. He was very clear and precise throughout the whole process. He was very reachable with any... questions that I had and wasn't afraid to take the time to explain everything in detail so that I felt comfortable and involved. I felt he genuinely had my best interest and was a great advocate on my behalf. I would highly recommend Mark Means with any legal issues you may have.

Great Lawyer

Mr. Means was assigned me through Hyatt legal program through my employer. He worked efficiently and promptly on first a bankruptcy for me and more recently on a custody issue for my son. I am very pleased with his service! He always answers my texts,phone calls and emails in a timely manner and alwa...ys try to answer all my questions to the best of his knowledge if he doesn't know the answer he finds it out! He is awesome! Thanks for all your hard work Mr. Means.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
