Honest, hardworking, knowledgeable man of integrity and character

Mark and his team helped us through a very difficult time, was always on top of our case (most of the time taking care of paperwork, phone calls, etc. the same day!), always responded to any questions, concerns, explained (multiple times) things we didn't understand and would repeatedly ask, calmed o...ur fears, and displayed the utmost respect and integrity at all times. Regardless of the outcome, we felt we were in the best hands possible, and his expertise and hard work resulted in the best possible results we could hope for. Thank you, Mark, for giving us our life back, you're such a blessing!

Highly recommend!

Mark and his team are tremendous! They took care of my situation with solid professionalism and experience.. I even contacted Mark seven years later on a Sunday afternoon about some paperwork and by the following Monday he had everything I needed and send it over by 10 AM. I highly recommend ma...rk and his team!

Always has your best interest at heart

Mark Shafer and Associates take great pride in their ability to provide unique and tailored legal services to each of their clients. I was really at a loss on how to proceed after my car accident and I did not know what steps to take as this was my first major car accident. Mark Shafer and Associate...s had benn recommended to me and I'm so luck they were. They are definitely confident and extremely knowledgeable and have handled many cases like mine. They are easy to get in contact with and I get updates whenever I need them by way of phone or email. They made what could have been a bad experience for me a good one. They even discussed issues like handling debt or collectors while I heal if it's needed. In addition Mark Shafer and Associates have been really nice and open with me on what was going on during my case. I would definitely recommend this firm to those who need it in the future.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
