Living Trusts

Attorney Ambrose goes a long way in giving attorneys a good reputation for honesty and professionalism. I went to him by referral to develop a Living Will, Advance Directives and a Trust for my assets. I am so glad it did. His desire to be helpful was evident. Very pleasant and not afraid to smile.... His vast professional expertise made the process simple as he helped narrow down my individual needs in one visit. The end product was terrific. My second visit, 2yrs later, was to update my trust and put in property deeds and update my distributions. Quick and easy. It's now 2yrs later and I am retired and found I needed a Special Needs Trust for my child, he researched and completed this quickly and efficiently. He made all of this look so easy and was very thorough with exactly what I needed, again in one visit and a quick return visit to sign and notarize. He is truly a family lawyer who is knowledgable, competent, and has the client's best interest at heart. It's one stop shopping. His legal secretary is friendly, a whiz with the paperwork and very well organized. I am now at peace with where my humble assets will go. This office has a personal interest in doing excellent service and I would refer any of my friends or family.

Recommendation for legal services

I was a defendant in a lawsuit concerning my parents trust. It was very involved, damaging accusations were made. Mr. Ambrose was with me all the way, he guided me in making the right decisions for myself and my parents. He was always available for any questions/concerns I had and kept me constant...ly informed on all issues. I found Mr. Ambrose to be honest, trustworthy, caring and completely knowledgable concerning the issues I faced. I grew to trust his recommendations and advise completely. I ALWAYS felt he had my best interests at heart. Mr. Ambrose is a good man, both personally and professionally. I would never hesitate to recommend him to family or friends. They would be getting the best.

One more Time

Mr. Ambrose handled my initial case many years ago. Things weren't looking like we would win, however, Mark found a loophole, we lost that battle but we won the war with that loophole. Everything remained the same and I was given a significant increase in child support. Now many years later my X w...ho did not willing pay his arrears unsuccessfully took me back to court and once again I had Mr. Ambrose handle my case. All is well and the judgement was in my favor. I will use Mr. Ambrose again. He keeps you focused and professional because court can be emotional and challenging.

You want a professional attorney, hire this one!

This attorney is very knowledgeable in what he does and has a wonderful paralegal. They are very professional in what they do. Not too long ago, I needed some legal advice regarding my divorce and he answered all my questions in a very professional manner which made me feel that much more confident... in my divorce proceedings. I would recommend Mark to any one that is looking for a family law attorney. Because he not only is a very hard worker and successful at what he does but he is always looking out for his clients and what is in their best interest.
