Mark was extremely prompt in his response time, even when it meant working with other attorneys and CPAs to gather all the documents needed to complete the work. I knew I'd chosen the right attorney the first time I met with Mark; he set my mind at rest that even though the situation seemed complicated, he would be able to handle the assignment and ensure everything was handled to prevent further dispute. I would definitely recommend him and plan to use him again in the future.

Mark was extremely helpful in getting our home based business off the ground. His knowledge of the legal system in Georgia made the whole process as quick and as painless as it could be. We plan on using him again when we move the home based business into a brick and mortar location.
