"Mark, I want to thank you so much for representing me in my Ch. 13
bankruptcy. You were so easy to talk to and your answers were always
reassuring but honest. I can't believe how many times I called or
e-mailed you with my fears and stupid questions and you always made
time for me. I've read the other client testimonies on your page and
they are all true. You saved my house and gave me a new start and I am
grateful. I am so glad I found you."

"Thanks. Everything went very well. Actually, it was almost too easy! I
am very pleased with your services. It made the process much easier and
less stressful and would definitely recommend you to anyone. Hopefully
I won't need your services again."

"After struggling along with debts that dated back 20 years (to our
college days), my husband and I finally decided that we needed to
declare bankruptcy. We had spent years paying on the same bills without
doing more than keeping pace, and it was obvious that we would still be
paying them when we were old enough to retire. Since I spent much of my
time on the internet, both for recreation and for job purposes, it
seemed natural for me to start by seeing what I could find out about
the bankruptcy process online before I started making any decisions.
I was pleased with the format and content of Mark's site, and very
impressed with how easy it was to contact him (by phone, fax, or
email), and how thorough he was in ferreting out the details of our
finances and helping us make the choices that were appropriate for us.
I have had friends who chose to use paralegals for their own bankruptcy
cases and in many cases they turned into nightmares, when they
discovered at their hearing that their paperwork was incorrect or that
they did not even qualify under the provisions of the law. Because of
Mark's diligence, I was able to go through the bankruptcy process
feeling secure that everything would go as planned and that it was all
well in hand. I'm very grateful for his help and would recommend him to
anyone else who needs similar aid."

"I enlisted the legal help of Mark Markus for my overwhelming financial
situation. A change in my lifestyle made it completely impossible to
deal with the credit card debt I had been accumulating for literally 20
years, just making the payments, month after month and continuing to
charge, charge, charge. At the time of my filing, my credit card debt
was nearly $40,000! The payments became impossible late in 1999 and I
found Mark in a legal forum. He was the only person who responded to a
general question I had about bankruptcy, and that began our business
relationship.
Last week I received my official Chapter 7 discharge, all the debts are
excused. If you are in some similar situation, or just need advice, I
can highly recommend Mark Markus. From beginning to end he was
professional and very knowledgeable. At my trustee hearing, I was
completely prepared as he had briefed me on what to expect. I also say
not to worry even if he is not in your location. I live some 500 miles
from him, never did meet him personally but he was able to do the
entire job via the phone and email. I never had any doubts that he was
the right man, as the weeks progressed. If you are considering
bankruptcy, don't hesitate to put your trust in Mark. He knows the
process very well and in my experience is completely trustworthy. He
will tell you after a brief interview whether it is feasible for you,
and if so, you will not regret using his services for the process."

"Mark, I've got to tell you, your preciseness of detail and
thoroughness in describing the process made it much more comfortable.
Your presentation of options and probabilities and your general
handholding made the process a lot easier...AND ALL THAT WITHOUT EVER
HAVING MET YOU!
You've been of great service to me Mark and I have a lot more respect for the process having now been on the other side!!
Best regards and thanks again"

"I was married for twenty years and recently lost my dear husband to
cancer. I was without a job, had a family to care for and bills to pay.
I considered payment arrangements with CCCS, but had no permanent job.
Temporary work was not stable enough to make the $800+ payments each
month. I was overwhelmed financially, an emotional wreck, and no
immediate job prospects. I gave my burdens over to prayer. I knew I
could not make payment arrangements-one week without a temp job and I
would be in default. I was too distraught to speak with anyone about my
circumstances, even my minister. I didn't want anyone to know my
personal business and believed no one could really help me with the
kind of help I needed. I was now a widow, without the head of my
household, without my best friend I decided to browse the net and see
what I could learn about bankruptcy. I had no desire to leave home and
traipse around looking for a lawyer, answering a million dollars worth
of questions. I reviewed a few sights and pondered what each offered. I
happened upon Mr. Markus' site. I was impressed with his details in
setting up his web site and internet savvy. He posted a photograph of
himself and comments from his clients. I checked his credentials…they
were in good standing and decided to call. He guided me through a very
difficult process in a kind and caring way. He worked with me as if he
too felt my pain and grief. He assisted me by phone, e-mail, fax and
letter. He performed a professional service in a timely and
professional manner. I recommend the services of Mr. Markus very
highly."
