This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Outstanding Professional and Caring Person

Mark Worischeck handled a personal injury claim for me, despite the Defendant's denial of liability. Throughout the litigation procedures, including consultations, Deposition, Mediation and Settlement, Mark's legal acumen and personal warmth and consideration led to an equitable outcome of the case. ...I would recommend Mark Worischeck without reservation.

Superb!

Intelligence combined with Compassion is the best summary of Mr. Worischeck's handling of our case. We were impressed with his thoroughness and the way his team guided us through a complicated legal process. Mark is an outstanding lawyer that you can trust to best represent your interests.

General Counsel

Mark Worischeck has been and remains the most skilled, knowledgable and client-focused attorney that my company has retained. He understands our business and is always thinking of ways to mitigate our exposure and costs. Whereas other attorneys often grind through the litigation process, Mark deve...lops and executes creative and cost-effective ways to resolve disputes. His responsiveness is unparalleled. This is key for any client, particularly in-house counsel, and Mark knows it. I always know exactly what is going on in matters he is handling for our company. He also delegates work in appropriate circumstances to other experienced and talented attorneys in his firm.

Client Review

As General Counsel for a workers' compensation insurance company, I've worked with Mark on a variety of cases ranging from complex commercial litigation to coverage issues over a period of several years. Mark is extremely perceptive, intelligent, dilligent and competent. He prepares well for every c...ase and takes depositions as well as or better than any lawyer I've known. His courtroom demeanor is respecful and animated (in a good way). Mark knows how to keep the attention of judge and jury, how to weild and make the best use of complex demonstrative exhibits, and is an effective cross-examiner. I have also found that he can often weave his way through a complex issue in a fraction of the time it takes most lawyers I know and explain it to the non-lawyers and lawyers alike in my company. Mark is also good at making sure I'm fully up to date as events occur in litigation, and am able to make informed decisions or provide my leadership with clear details for their decision-making.

Posted by anonymous | June 3, 2009

I will continue to recommend Mr. Worischeck, we have found him to be the consumate professional with a quick mind& trained ear.

We endorse this lawyer's work. We had a very positive and as it turned out, a significantly rewarding monetary experience working with Mr. Worischeck. We feel his experience and depth of knowledge of the insurance industry as well as his indusrty relationships aided in the results he garnered for o...ur son. His communication skills would challenge anyone's. We always knew what was transpiring and what to expect next during the process. We have felt confident enough of his work that we have and will continue to recommend him to others with legal issues. Whether it is his area of expertise or if he refers it to someone else in his law firm, we know it will be handled professionally.

Litigation lawyer | Jun 02

Relationship: Co-worker

"Mark is the hardest worker I know, and probably the best negotiator I know. When he takes a case, he will not rest until he has put every ounce of his effort into it, and maximized the result for his client, be it a defense verdict or a significant recovery for a plaintiff. Plus he has the litigation team to complement his own personal efforts. When you retain Mark, you are getting a tremendously talented team that comes with him. I would feel entirely comfortable having Mark handle virtually any matter on my behalf."
