Custody

Very professional and too the point. Lays everything out clearly and is well educated on the different things that can happen in a custody case. He was able to answer all of my questions and give me an idea of how things would go. The case is ongoing but I have no doubt Mark will continue to exceed m...y expectations!!

Excellent results and service

During the process of my divorce, I needed a consult. It was a hopeless situation leaving my husband. Mark is is a very good lawyer- always prepared. Does a very good job for his clients. He walked me through step by step and was very careful in helping my understand everything that was happening and... educating me for my particular situation. Couldnt thank him enough.

Damsel in Distress

In my civil case Mark was extremely competent. Not only did he know his way around the paperwork and logistic side of my case, but he also went to extra mile to help me understand what my best options where! I am please with his how respectfully and quickly we resolved my case. Thanks Mark!

The BEST HANDS DOWN!!!

Hired Attorney Means to handle my high conflict (intimidating ex) divorce and custody. He got me more than 50% of the assets and less than 50% of the debts and primary care giver for my children. This is what I wanted and he nailed it! He does not promise unrealistic rulings but is straight to the... point, knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and never judged me! The definition of professional and courteous!

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.
