A WINNER EVERY TIME !

I do not hesitate to give a positive endorsement to Mark Guralnick. I've used him and his firm for employment-related situations as well as for a recent car accident, and for court proceedings that followed. I can say, without any hesitation at all, that this is a law firm that has your best inter...ests at heart. Mark himself is very approachable, listens carefully and then gives out very specific advice. When it comes time to act, Mark is always there--whether it involves going to court or filing papers or taking the necessary steps to protect my interest. Like I said, I do not hesitate to recommend Mark Guralnick. With him, I have been a winner every time.

Posted by Missy | November 05, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Support Issues Resolved.

With four children, I had serious concerns about child support and whether I would be able to enforce court orders out or state. Mark S. Guralnick was referred to me by my family. He came to the rescue, efficiently and effectively. He walked me through the process of collecting support even from a d...eadbeat parent living on the other side of the country.

THE BEST INTERNATIONAL LAWYER, BY FAR!

I spoke to quite a few attorneys before I settled on Mark Guralnick and his firm. They assisted me in the preparation of documents, affidavits and other materials so that I could transact business between India and the United States. To be sure, I was nervous about getting these papers right because ...there was quite a bit of money at risk, and my family was depending on me. Mark quickly took away my fears, educated me on the international requirements and took care of me. For this, I am eternally grateful.

An Expert on Children !

I'm not saying anything that hasn't been said before about him, but Mark S. Guralnick is the complete deal! He definitely knows what he's doing when it comes to children, parents rights and children's rights. Mark also gives me complete and thorough information so that I am fully protected in any... courtroom battle. I have consulted him on adoption law, custody law, guardianship issues and child support. In my opinion, he deserves the highest rating because he is exactly what a lawyer is supposed tp be -- knowledgeable, thorough, and available to me.

Posted by Brad | November 05, 2015 | Criminal Defense

He knows all of the Defenses.

If it weren't for Mark Guralnick, I'm not sure where I'd be today. I have had more than my share of problems, in which I have faced charges and other legal claims against me. Mark rolls with the defenses. He seems to know exactly which direction to go, no matter how sticky the situation may be. I fee...l safer knowing that he is always just a phone call away.

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.
