Tenant Help!

Mark helped me get tenants out of my rental property! He went to court with me twice and the judge ruled in my favor both times! He was proficient and very thorough! I highly recommend him!

Great attorney at a great price

If you have any landlord/tenant issues, Mark is the attorney to hire. We had a difficult landlord/tenant and civil lawsuit case and Mark was brilliant in finding specific facts that helped our case in court. His over 30 years of experience in the courtroom made us feel better each time he walked us... through what to expect on our court dates and it was extremely helpful that he knew many of the judges we appeared before. Moreover, Mark is very fair in his billing. Before we hired him, we interviewed/spoke with over a dozen different attorneys in the Montgomery County area, and Mark charges a very fair price overall (other attorneys charged significantly more for less quality service). Mark is a one-man law firm, but do not let this fool you. He and Suzanne are very honest and hard-working people, and in the whole year that we had to work with him for our civil lawsuit case, he has been fantastic in his promptness and responsive filings. We highly recommend Mark to anyone who needs his services and would definitely hire him again in the future.

An outstanding lawyer!

My wife and I were faced with a breach of lease shortly after renting our house and moving across the country. Mark was extremely competent and calming throughout the entire legal process, and we learned a lot about tenant-landlord law along the way. Mark was quick to respond and well-prepared for e...very aspect of the case. Although we tried to settle, out of court, with our former tenants, the case ultimately went to trial due to their reluctance to discuss a settlement with us. At the trial, Mark was, by far, the superior lawyer, and in the end, we won the case and were awarded even more than the original claim.

Mark took all the stress out of getting sued by our tenant

We hired Mark to help us deal with getting sued by a previous tenant. We've been landlords for 10 years, but have never had legal problems before. He made everything easy for us, and was able to settle the case before it went to trial. We will definitely use him again if we ever need legal experti...se. He is very easy to work with.

A great lawyer that cares

Mr. Mark truly cares I contacted him regarding an eviction issue and base on the knowledge that he provided me for free I was able to defend myself. I truly recommend him for any legal matters, Mr. Mark worries about the person or client first before money.
