Mark was hired by my fiance
My fiance had to pay double than what he was expected to. My fiance also added up all the numbers all of his income for mark and my fiance continuously called Mark to make sure he had all the numbers correct. Mark assured him and my fiancé ended up paying more than what he makes. Mark lacks communication, empathy, experience. There have been other poor reviews but they seem to get erased he took his last site down with all the poor reviews he received. Mark promised reimbursement since it was his wrong doing and never received a dime. DO NOT go to Mark unless you want to get screwed over!

Run far and run fast! These people are extremely unreliable. They have a call center that seems to be in a third world country. They'll give you the runaround every time and only take messages. When the attorney speaks to you, they'll try to prolong the conversation to get more money out of you. I was originally represented by David Taub. They swapped him out for Grant MacArthur on less than 24-hour notice. Grant MacArthur showed up late in a wrinkled up suit and basically gave me 15 minutes to decide whether or not I wanted to take the opposing council's deal. There was really no work done. They took two retainers and resolved one issue that was already thrown out in criminal law. After they put me in the worst possible spot and I told them to pause, they then made up more reasons to get another bill in excess of the two retainers. Not to mention, they took weeks to sign the substitution of attorney and send over a file delaying work for my new attorney. I should have paid attention to the use of "Reel" over "Real" utilized in the firm's name. Thankfully I've gone with another attorney. I've now paid these people over 10,700 in order to it get rid of a salacious claim that was already thrown out in criminal law. I hope I can dig myself out of the hole that this firm put me in.

I retained Reel Fathers Rights over a year ago and could not be more pleased. The entire staff has been great. They are kind and responsive, yet completely honest with me. We are not done yet, but my case has come such a long way since I retained the team at Reel Fathers Rights!

I had a consultation with Mark's staff. They listened and walked me through what to expect with my custody case. After I hired them they were communicative, they handled everything for me, and had everything resolved in under 6 months.

I followed Mr. Reel and his show on The Fathers Rights Movement. I finally reached out and setup a consultation with him. I wish I would have consulted with him years ago. My case has been going on for years and after talking to him, I see the mistakes made by my previous attorneys. He's knows his stuff and is always very accessible, which is refreshing for a family law attorney.

I'll make it simple. Im an unmarried father & if you're a man in the Inland Empire, you need to talk to Mark about your child custody issue. He easy easy to access, always responds to calls & emails quickly & really helps you understand your issues. I couldn't recommend using his services more! If you're reading this, go talk to Mark now.

Where do I begin?? Is a saying I've used more times then I could count over the last three years. I was going through a nasty divorce, starting a new job, and not able to see my children.
I was continually giving money to lawyers and receiving no results, the majority of the time without an explanation as to where my money was going or where my case stood.
I was completely in the dark in almost every aspect concerning my divorce and custody due to the legal jargon and countless 3-5 minute hearings where I was told to be quiet and just stand next to "my" attorney.
After the hearings I would be told to whom and how much I needed to pay, as well as how much more time was taken away concerning the visitation of my children.
3 years of following everything to the letter and accepting what my professional lawyer told me would be to the benefit of my case. I was confused as to I got in the position I was in.
After my final divorce hearing I was left with less money, less time with my children, and an almost broken spirit. The opposing party by this time had gotten comfortable with my attorneys doing nothing and only providing lip service. The withholding of "court ordered parenting time had gotten to almost 5 months!
It was devastating! Then I'm stumbled across Reel Fathers Rights. At first contact, he sounded like all the other attorneys. There was one difference, when I spoke he listened. He actually listened, and provided feedback that was relevant and laced with action. He spoke directly and had realistic options backed by pros and cons.
After the first zoom conference, I had the foundation for a plan. Most importantly I had hope and in talking to Mark his energy will rub off on you. He is not a miracle worker, but he is honest and hard working. Fast forward 6 months, with his guidance I have consistently been able to see my children. Court orders are being followed and I almost have a life again. There's still more work to be done, I'm confident with the help of Reel Fathers Rights things will be ok.
In closing all is true and not a paid review. It comes from the heart of grateful man that only wants to be apart of his children's life.
Thank you Mark
