MR. MARCUS DISMISSED MY CASE AFTER 20 MINUTES WITH DA NEGOTIATION

Let me start by saying that Mr. Marcus saved my life. I was falsely accused and charged with misdemeanor (Battery). I had hired 2 different attorneys and none of them helped me to prove my innocence. God lead me to Mr. Marcus and he immediately accepted my case. I knew that it was one of the best... decisions I have ever made! I was feeling like my world was falling apart, he helped me regain a sense of peace and he was always there for me, he treated me like family and made me feel secure. Mr. Marcus has a firm understanding of the law and how the system works. He is very knowledgeable in his profession. He was entirely compassionate during this difficult time. Mr. Marcus is truly a lawyer you can count on, I can definitely say that he is an exceptional attorney, who goes above and beyond for his clients. He is professional, trustworthy, and extremely diligent. Mr. Marcus is the epitome of what you call a "GENTLEMAN Lawyer." He is the perfect balance of kindness, professionalism and humanity at its finest. He advocates for me with veracity, truth and an untiring meticulousness to doing the BEST work for me. Mr. Marcus sees not just me, but he also SEES the family/loved ones that stand behind the accused... he advocates compassionately and UNTIRINGLY for ALL parties affected by tragic events. And, has the wisdom to work diplomatically and firmly with the opposing party. There is a RESPECT that emanates and is INNATE to Attorney Anthony Marcus. In a world gone mad and blinded by the darkness of humanity, HE is the beacon of hope, respect and humanity for all. If you are looking for exceptional representation I would totally recommend this real man. I would recommend Mr. Marcus to any and everyone! His prices are reasonable and he will fight for you. MR. MARCUS DISMISSED MY CASE AFTER 20 MINUTES WITH DA NEGOTIATION. He stayed true to his word and got my entire case dismissed for about a year I was really stressed couldn't really live life thinking the worst. Thank you Mr. Marcus for your unwavering dedication to my cause. You are "An Angel in disguise." You are BLESSING. And, I assure you, that we will pay your infinite kindness FORWARD. Thank you & God bless you to keep fighting the good fight. I’m eternally grateful

Dismissed My Case After 15 Minutes - DA Negotiation!!!

Dismissed My Case After 15 Minutes - DA Negotiation!!! I had an altercation with a gas station clerk due to some family involvement. That clerk pulled a knife on me, I defendant my life by pushing him and punching him in the face. I called the police, but by the time the police arrived the clerk ...hide the knife and the only thing the police observed was the clerk's mark of my punch on the clerk’s face. The police were convened that I was the aggressor. Unfortunately, when the clerk produced the gas station’s video, he deleted the part where he pulled the knife on me. The only evidence reviewed by the DA was the red eye of the clerk and I was charged with battery. I hired two lawyers. None of them was able to advocate for me to show the DA the truth. They just want to make money from my unfortunate situation. Finally, I find Mr. Marcus online and read the unparalleled clients’ reviews about his successes, honestly, hard work, and affordable rate. I immediately called him and no kidding, I immediately felt what I read about him was true. I hired him on the spot. He met with me two times and we reviewed the case to strategize a solution. He explained his plan on how he will dismiss my case. On the day of the pretrial, he came very early and was the first to speak to the DA about my case. After 15 minutes of negotiation, he came to my seat and told me the case will be dismissed as soon the judge take the bench! I could not believe myself. Why did I hire the other attorneys, if such an honest lawyer work on my case as if it is his case existed? Do not waste your time and money searching for others, this lawyer is really treating people with dignity and genuine hard work. I absolutely vouch for him after my unbelievable experience with him!

Civil Litigation Warrior

Civil Litigation Warrior I was served with a deposition. To which I hired Mr. Marcus to defend me, and he did beyond the expectation. He trained me on how to handle myself during the deposition. Went over the issues that might or might not come and explained everything beforehand. The fear I ...had when I received the deposition subpoena disappeared after Mr. Marcus started to represent me. During the deposition, he was very alert to everything the opposing attorney asked me. He objected and argued with the opposing attorney over many issues that were not appropriate and he made sure that his objections and my voice were on the records. During the deposition, I felt at peace knowing that Mr. Marcus was beside me. He absolutely gained my trust by how he encountered the ordeal head-on with confidence. His demeanor transformed my fear to victory. I totally recommend him in any civil litigation.

FRIENDLY IMMIGRATION LAWYER

It was hard to find an affordable, honest, friendly, and knowledgeable attorney to represent my immigration case. I spoke to many attorneys and was not satisfied. However, after talking to attorney Anthony Marcus, I immediately observed his friendly personality and the way he understands my situation.... I hired him to petition for my spouse’s green card. He came to our house to explain the process and exhibited a confident knowledge of the Immigration law. The case was filed in December of 2018. At the end of May 2019, we got a request for clarification for my spouse’s birth certificate. Mr. Marcus explained why they needed that and asked for new original documents. After we gathered the materials, Mr. Marcus prepared a letter and sent it to the Immigration office. Within three months, my spouse’s work authorization was approved, and we received a letter scheduling the green card interview. Prior to the interview, Mr. Marcus met with us three times and rehearsed with us a mock interview twice. On the day of the interview, he came with us and explained the steps and communicated with the office during the interview. After a brief 20-minute interview, the officer asked us to wait outside in order to clear a small lapse of time in my spouse’s visa (he was as a student three months prior, when his F1 visa ended). Mr. Marcus explained why the officer needed approval from his supervisor. While we were waiting Mr. Marcus confidently told my spouse “congratulation on your green card!” That was even before the officer invited us back in and gave us the Green Card approval letter. I will always rely on the outstanding legal help of Anthony Marcus if needed in the future.
