My experience dealing with Mark
There is an old saying "people don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care Mark has a compassionate side of him that also put the emotional trauma of dealing with a bitter divorce into perspective, and his guidance lowered the stress and anxiety by great amounts. In addition, ...
"For more than 30 years, Mark Gershenson has been providing effective, compassionate and cost effective representations to husbands and wives involved in a family law dispute. Mark knows the law and his way around the courts but, more importantly, recognizes that personal and financial issues that must be kept in mind in formulating a legal, personal and business strategy best calculated to get his client to the result that he or she is seeking. I frequently make referrals of my clients to Mark, and cannot recommend him more enthusiastically."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is a great contributor in the desert family law community, giving his time, thoughts, and energy to improving the profession in general and his individual client's lives."
"I have known Mark for over twenty years. He is without a doubt one of the top lawyers in his field. Moreover, he has the utmost integrity and a reputation for truth and veracity. I have sent him family law matters over the years and have always been thanked for the referral. A finer person and lawyer, I do not know."
"Mark is an exceptional litigator. After practicing with him at a large Century City law firm and getting to see first-hand his impressive skills, determination and astuteness (with legal issues, strategizing, clients and opponents alike), I hired him for a dispute that my wife had with her former business partner. Mark dealt calmly and efficiently with an extremely difficult and belligerent opponent, and got the matter settled on favorable terms as quickly as possible – a much better result than I could have gotten. I recommend Mark enthusiastically."
