Posted by Linda | November 11, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Elder Law

Superstar!

My case involved Real Estate and financial abuse of a family member. While selling a home I asked the realtor if she knew of a Real Estate attorney and she gave me Marc Fong's information. Marc was the answer to my prayers, he sheltered my elderly family member from the stress of litigation and met... with her many times at her assisted living facility when necessary. I cannot express strongly enough how Marc was the strength and calm in the midst of mediation which was extremely stressful. He is everything you want an attorney to be, knowledgable, ethical and supportive I will alway be grateful for his expertise.

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.
