"Thank you, Mark, for your patience and understanding in the handling of my bankruptcy case. I very much appreciate the patience you demonstrated towards me in making the difficult decision to file for bankruptcy. The information you provided on your web site about filing and the different categories of bankruptcy was very helpful. With your help, what started out as a very painful decision to accept responsibility for my financial situation, ended up being a surprisingly painless procedure. I don't think one can put a price on the kindness and compassion that you showed me during this whole process; nevertheless, your fee was very reasonable and quite possibly the first smart financial decision I had made in a long time. Thank you again."
Danielle C.--Los Angeles, CA--February 2004 "Mark was professional in every sense of the word and answered all my questions whether on the phone or via email. He alleviated my concerns and put me at ease through one of the most stressful times in my life. I don't know what I would've done without his help. I would highly recommend Mark Markus to anyone considering bankruptcy. Thanks to him, I am debt free and have regained control of my life. Thank you Mark!"
Ani C. Newhall, CA--April 2004
"I would highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a competent, thorough discharge. Mark was great throughout the process, helping with any questions or personal dilemmas I had. I received a total discharge thanks to his help. Great job! Thanks!"

"I absolutely recommend Mark Markus. Bankruptcy is something which tends to be unfairly stigmatized and an onus is often placed on those who have found themselves under heavy debt, unable to move their lives forward. Mark understands this, is kind, professional and gives you a calm assurance of someone who knows what he is doing. Because he does. During the trustee meeting I was amazed and saddened by the disorganization of other people's paperwork and felt blessed to have chosen well in Mark. I am now relieved to be living unrestricted from huge debt and am very grateful to Mark Markus."

"My case is unusual because I am an Australian Citizen living in Australia. I lived In the US for 20 years. Due to a family illness I relocated back to Australia on short notice and was never able to catch up with debts I had incurred in the US. I was very confused about how to file Chapter 7 from another country but I needed to do something because I was getting debt collection notices. Mark Markus was like a true God send to me. He's an extremely knowledgeable attorney and a very personable human being. He handled my case swiftly and concisely online and I didn't even have to leave Australia! He was always available to answer my questions by phone and email. What seemed like an impending nightmare for me, Markus handled it with great care and attention to detail, relieving all of my stress in the situation. I can't thank you enough Mark. You have a true talent."
K.O. From Sydney Australia October 2004 "I would recommend Mark J. Markus to anyone interested in filing bankruptcy.
He was able to accurately assess my situation through my initial free online
consultation and answered all of my questions in a very timely manner. With
Mark's help, I was able to complete the Chapter 7 bankruptcy process much
faster and with less hassle than I anticipated.
I am now able to plan my future without being hand-cuffed by crippling debt.
Thanks Mark!"
J.P. from Seal Beach. November, 2004 "If you are considering bankruptcy, call Mark Markus. I found him extremely helpful, honest, and very professional. He returned my calls and emails promptly, explained my options clearly, and made the entire process very smooth and trouble-free. At the Meeting of Creditors, I saw others who were not represented having trouble with the trustee about their papers, assets, and so forth. One person had a creditor show up and question her, and she had no representation. I was very glad that I did -- the trustee questioned the value of some of my assets and wanted to do appraisals, but Mark advocated my position to the trustee and I didn't have to appear again. It went much better than I expected. I also had a particularly difficult case that included past taxes, and he handled it exceptionally well. I have learned one very important thing over the last few years: When dealing with complex matters (such as bankruptcy), it eventually costs far less to hire a professional who has a lot of experience than to try and do
it yourself. I give Mark Markus my highest recommendation."
