Generous, Quick & Helpful

Attorney Straface was very generous with him time and patience on my case. He was diligent in reaching out to the necessary parties and was able to clarify my questions effectively. He has a great understand of how IRS works and has good recommendations on tackling complex problems. I'd recommend... Attorney Straface to everyone who is looking to get legal help on their tax issues.

An outstanding attorney

Attorney Mark Straface handled a legal malpractice case for me. Legal malpractice is not an easy case to take on because usually it means you are sueing an attorney who knows how to cover his butt. Mark invested many hours to insure I would come out on top of this case. But more importantly, he was h...onest and transparent thru the entire process. I am so thankful I hired him to represent me. If you are looking for an honest competent attorney who will fight on your behalf...then Mark Straface is the attorney for you.

Resolved Debt

In the midst of everything that has occurred, one final straw was being sued. I contacted numerous lawyers, some who did not want to help me or others who were going to charge a ridiculous amount to go to court. Once I consulted with Mr. Straface his knowledge set me at ease. We easily settled and av...oided messy escalations. He was straight to the point and I will always appreciate his service.
