Mark Twyford Cassell

I recently went through a difficult divorce with many painful and emotional avenues. After interviewing four other lawyers and firing the cheapest due to incompetency, Mark Cassell was my perfect choice. Immediately I felt at ease due to his professionalism, understanding, and his availability when d...ealing with some of the crazy that comes with divorce and with ex’s. He calmed me and guided me to say and do exactly what needed to be done in an anxiety ridden time. My divorce took over one year to finalize, but throughout the court hearing for temporary orders and months later the finalizing of everything in front of a judge, Mark maintained excellent communication, always responding promptly to my emails and making sure I was up-to-date on developments. Mark and his team at Twyford Law were not only knowledgeable about the legal aspects but also very empathetic about the emotional challenges I faced. My outcome was 100% favorable, better than I could have hoped for, which I owe to Mark and his team's skillful negotiation and dedication to my case. Overall, working with Mark Cassell at Twyford Law was a very positive experience during an extremely challenging time, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a divorce lawyer.

After my husband of 20 years announced he wanted a divorce, I was in shock and confused, my life was about to change. I asked for recommendations for attorneys and spoke with several and felt they were indifferent to my situation. I hired a wonderful attorney who went to bat for me. The opposition dr...agged it out and it became one of the worst cases for harassment, intransigence, and psychological abuse. The opposition resorted to erroneously using a special needs child to favor their case. My attorney brought in Mark to assist her with the GAL who became involved. My attorney only works with 2 other attorneys in Spokane and Mark was one of them. I am so glad she got Mark involved!! Mark is sharp! He got a handle on my case immediately, even though he was behind the 8 ball as it had already been well over a year with a plethora of court filings. I met Mark and had my documents and evidence ready and he got it immediately. I felt relieved that I did not have to rehash everything that had been going on since the dissolution started. His intelligence and knowledge of the law was evident from the start. Mark is honest and upfront with clients even if it is something you do not want to hear. He is not concerned about being popular with the courts or other attorneys for being your advocate. He is highly respected within the court system and in the legal profession. Mark knows his way around the court systems and is a top orator in court and composed, not flinching with the opposition’s tactics or outbursts. He is articulate, quick witted and not afraid of confrontations if it helps him advocate for his clients. He is honest with his clients too on realistic expectations, but he will not back down in negotiations unless it is fair, equitable and has a good outcome for the people he represents. When my trial date was imminent, there was a conflict with my first attorney, so she brought Mark in. Within a weekend he knew the ins and outs of the financial situation and was on top of the 5 binders of information. Once the opposition heard the Judge’s ruling before trail and saw the evidence in the Trial Management Report, he and his paralegal Nickole had put together they wanted to negotiate after 18months doing the opposite. We were prepared to go to trial regardless. Mark would not back down until it was a fair and equitable outcome for me. We avoided the trial and additional trial costs due to his excellent negotiation skills and activism for me. There are only 2 attorneys I would hire to represent me with confidence knowing they had my back, and I was not a number to them but a person who needed a champion and Mark is most definitely one of them.

Mark and Julie (at Twyford Law) are awesome. They are extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I've had nothing but good experiences with them and their entire team. Before seeking them out I had always assumed that Family Law rarely went in the favor of the father. They have proved my assumption...s wrong! If you are a guy involved in Family Law "drama" give them a call! They will talk straight and tell you what you need to hear and not just what you want to hear.
