Mr. Brent helped me finalize my divorce and helped with a difficult situation. He always took time to explain what would occur prior, explained what to expect in terms of outcomes, and let me ask questions. He was very professional, always responsive, on time, and his office was helpful whenever I had additional questions. I would recommend him for his legal services. Thank you.

I was originally working with a fellow lawyer at the the same firm. However, this lawyer, who was originally going to handle my case, recommended Counselor Brent when he became a judge. He knew that Counselor Brent would be the best for my situation and he was right on target. Counselor Brent and his team did a fantastic job from day one. I didn't have to constantly call to find out what's going on because I knew that he was on top of the situation and would notify me of anything that was important. If anyone is looking for a divorce lawyer who really cares about his client, then Mark Brent is your lawyer.
I retained Mark Brent to help me with a child custody case. From the very first interaction, Mark was compassionate, caring and straightforward. There was no sugar coating or telling me what I wanted to hear, it was simple honesty and what to prepare for. He made sure to explain all that could happen and the timing involved. Never once did I feel rushed when we spoke. Mark Brent's legal assistant, Heather truly follows Mark Brent's example of care and compassion towards the client, she was a dream to work with. Not once did I feel forgotten, pushed aside or uninformed throughout the entire process. I have dealt with many lawyers in my life and I will tell you, the only one I would recommend is Mark Brent, he is worth every penny. Thanks to Attorney Mark Brent, my son now lives with me, is healing and thriving.
Mark Brent assisted me with a guardianship matter. He was highly professional, knowledgeable, knew his way around the courtroom and had a very good rapport with the other attorneys and judge. His attention to detail is excellent. I felt that my case was handled with the utmost care and efficiency. His team provided excellent support. I will continue seeking his guidance in the future.
Mark Brent handled my divorce in a very professional and competent way. He was able to make the process smooth and as stress free as possible. Everything was explained thoroughly and handled quickly. The entire process only took about 4 months from beginning to end. I would recommend Mark to anyone looking for a great attorney.
