Someone You Can Rely On

Mark Gershenson is a family law attorney in the Coachella Valley whom I highly recommend. I found that Mark was completely accessible and willing to answer any questions I had with regards to the dissolution process. He successfully challenged erroneous filings submitted to the court by opposing coun...sel both in writing to the court and in person before the judge. I found Mark always had complete understanding of every detail of my case and provided creative solutions to my concerns. As an example, he negotiated a financial settlement between myself, my ex-wife and her counsel which allowed us to avoid costly litigation. I am very excited to have been referred to Mark.

Speaks Softly & Carries a Big Stick

Mark's a no-nonsense type of lawyer. He doesn't blow smoke at the client. He is a gentleman at all times, but he's also quite tenacious and fastidious in the handling of our case. We found him to be very responsive, careful, & detail oriented in the way he attended to the issues we encountered. M...ark is very, very bright and capable - just the sort of fellow you want in your corner! He is scrupulous, persuasive, and attentive. We have only the highest regard for Mark Gershonsen's abilities as a person as well as a legal professional.

What a great attorney

Mark is a conscientious, hard working, honest, knowledgeable attorney. He is straight forward and pleasant. He knows his stuff and is not like others--he is not just out to get your money--he truly wants to do a great job for you.

Do not hire this lawyer

Stay away from this person. Without hearing my side of the story he sided with my accuser and said the best i could hope for was admitting it and try to get a reduced penalty. I was not doing that and told him we were not a match. Then charged another $250 for having to answer the email about a mista...ke he made. Sent another sarcastic email to me the day before my hearing. A bad lawyer and a worse person.
