Posted by anonymous | August 09, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Efficient, knowledgeable professional

I came to Mark with a complicated situation related to my recent divorce. He was not the only lawyer I consulted, but he was the best. He had a solution drafted for me in a few short days, where others needed weeks to research. He really helped with a problem that I wasn’t sure could be solved. H...e clearly knows what he is doing. His hourly rate is not the lowest but it was a great value for what I received in return. I hope to not need his help in the future but if I do I will call him without hesitation.

Criminal defense lawyer | Jun 17

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I worked misdemeanor cases and appeal cases against Mark for approximately 4 years. In that time, Mark proved to be a crafty trial lawyer. He was always well prepared and knows the law better than most attorneys. While unforgiving in trial, Mark always balanced his ability to try a case with compassion and often worked with the opposing side so that both our clients got what they felt was fair. I highly recommend Mark and would not hesitate to hire him."

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.
