Our daughter, who was traveling through the state of NC on her way back to college, was charged with a DUI. As any parent would feel, we were extremely concerned. Our biggest problem was that we live several hundred miles away, and had no idea who we should entrust our daughter's fate with. After careful research, we decided to move forward with Mark. I feel so fortunate to have done so. The process before the trial took several months. During this time our anxiety level was very high given the severity of the charges. What struck me about Mark in particular was his empathy and understanding of our circumstances. He made himself available numerous times to discuss the progression of the case. After careful examination of the evidence surrounding our case, he felt that there was in fact no real evidence to support the officers numerous claims. He explained this to us thoroughly, and how he would prepare to litigate her case. We understood that there were no guarantees, but felt better as the day approached. Thankfully the court agreed with Mark's argument, and dropped the most serious charges leaving her with only a speeding ticket. I would highly recommend Mark!
Handled our estate matter with professionalism and timeliness.
Mark took great care of me! I had a ticket for an open container and Mark did every thing to work it out so that I wouldn't get points on my license. Mark was diligent in getting the facts straight and making sure I had the best possible defense. I was always informed and felt comfortable and confident in what Mark was doing. You can't put a price on peace of mind, and Mark really gave me that!
