He approached our case with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every aspect was thoroughly reviewed and addressed. His professionalism and dedication gave us confidence and clarity du...ring a challenging time. Marc’s expertise and commitment to excellence set him apart from others in his field. I highly recommend Marc Hodges to anyone seeking legal counsel. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients.

Above and Beyond

Marc Hodges is a caring and thorough lawyer. He has helped so many people in the years of his practice. Anyone getting on here saying outright lies are disgruntled miserable people whom wish to spread their misery. It is slanderous to say outright lies. Grown men acting like unhappy spoiled childre...n because real life didn’t match what theyve seen on television. . Learn how to distinguish your fleeting feelings from the truth. It is shameful to lie on Mr Hodges on this platform just for you to spread the misery of your life. Shame on you!

Proceed with Caution

I would strongly advise against retaining the services of Marc Hodges as your attorney. My experience with him was extremely unprofessional and disappointing. Marc consistently displayed a lack of punctuality, often arriving late to meetings and court appearances. Additionally, he failed to submit ne...cessary paperwork in a timely manner, causing unnecessary delays and complications in my case. Marc's billing practices were also concerning. Despite quoting a flat fee, he frequently requested additional payments after the fact. Communication with him was frustrating, as he was unresponsive unless payment was involved, often taking days to reply to messages. On one occasion, I had to contact the bar association in order to retrieve important documents from him after I declined his proposition for further representation. Furthermore, Marc's lack of commitment to representing my best interests was evident. He seemed more focused on his own agenda rather than advocating for what I believed was right. In family law matters, this lack of dedication can have serious consequences. It is worth noting that any advance payments made for court services were not refunded, even if the services were not rendered as agreed upon. Marc also conducted business without a formal contract, allowing him to alter terms as he saw fit. Despite the presence of Christian symbols in his office, Marc's actions did not align with the values they represent. His inconsistent behavior, suspicious usage of multiple vehicles, raises further concerns about his professionalism and reliability. In conclusion, I strongly recommend seeking legal representation elsewhere to avoid the frustrations and disappointments I experienced while working with Marc Hodges.

Bad Business

Marc Hodges was late to our first meeting & consultation. He charged me $1,500 to file an application that he knew would be denied. He did not make the one phone call to the contact given that would confirm that he could not assist me with my matter. After conveying my dissatisfaction towards his se...rvices, he promised to file a motion, per request, and appear in court with me just once to make things right. Motion was filed with my signature forged on two documents. He did not show up for court. Court date was rescheduled. Called Mr. Hodges prior to 2nd court date, accused him of lying, deceivingm me, & being dishonorable. I requested a refund of $1000. He agreed with my accusations & said he would only refund $500. That's unacceptable was my response. Marc Hodges did not show up for court for the 2nd time and has not returned any of my calls nor text messages. His refund offer was unreasonable due to my lost work wages, my wasted time, & lack of effort on his part. I had to represent myself in court and although legally advised that at the end of the day my caae would remain the same, I just wanted mr. Hodges to appear in court and represent me as promised. Every statement written here is true & verifiable upon request. I've made peace within and forgiven Mr.. Hodges for his actions and lack of action. I have also decided not to proceed with anything that I was advised to do regarding Mr. Hodges. I'm aware that good business breeds good business. And word of mouth and referrals bring forth more business. I was referred to him by a very good friend and this is what happened in my situation. I would not refer him to anyone that I know. Good luck to potential clients and Marc Hodges as well.
