Mr. Marks was very helpful with the advice he gave me. He listened and showed compassion for my concerns with employment issues I'm having with my employer. If need need legal advice again I will certainly call on Mr. Marks. Mr. Marks thank you for your advice and kindness!

As a real estate Broker for over 16 years, I have worked with many attorneys over the years. None of them have the passion and dedication to the client as Jeffrey Marks. He is not only timely and professional, he cares for each and every one of his clients. He always puts their needs before his own and it shows. I have used Jeff for other matters as well. He is the top in his field for all your legal needs. I highly recommend him with confidence to my friends, clients and family!

Attorney Jeffrey Marks is truly an expert in all things real estate. Over the course of two years, Jeffrey has represented me in three different transactions (and counting). He went above and beyond to help me understand everything that was going on with each of these matters, and most importantly, he made me feel very protected. Jeffrey is a wealth of knowledge, he is very thorough, and he always converses in terms that everyone can comprehend. If you need solid real estate representation, look no further. I cannot recommend Jeffrey enough.

First-time home buyer. I was nervous and had lots of questions. Jeffrey and his team walked me through the steps, answered my questions promptly, and basically held my hand through the process. Closing was relaxed and relatively quick. Jeffrey made what could be a scary experience into a painless process. Definately selected the right attorney. and would do so again.

Jeff was a pleasure to work with. My husband and I honestly had no idea what to do or expect as first time home buyers, but Jeff was very patient and affable. He made sure we understood everything and made the process effortless. We highly recommend him.

What we found most impressive about Jeffrey Marks is that he was ahead of us in thinking about any of the issues which might have become problems. We never felt we needed to worry about how the sale would go.

As a real estate broker for 15 year, I have had many real estate closings and some of them were good ,some of them bad, some of them OK. What separates Jeffrey from the other attorneys is- his efficiency. He will save your time ,taking over the small details in connection to the closing and you will just be happy when everything is done, you just know that you are in good hands. I , would definitely recommend him to any of my clients-sellers and buyers.

I hired Jeff to be the real estate attorney on my first time home purchase. Because I'm not a real estate attorney and this was my first time going through they closing process; I relied on him to thoroughly review my entire deal as my attorney. He did not. He constantly communicated with my agent only, not keeping me in the loop and requiring my agent to explain legal things to me; things that he, as my attorney, should have been explaining to me. During my walk through, I informed him of things that were not corrected, rather than listen to me and represent my interests, he dismissed me. After reviewing emails and my closing documents with other attorneys, several attorneys pointed out things he missed. Things that should have been questioned before allowing a client to close. This is why I don't believe he was thorough in his representation of me. It's cost me dearly, financially as well as mentally and emotionally.
