I have had the pleasure of knowing Tom Marks for more than a decade. Mr. Marks is the attorney who I highly endorse to our clients regarding legal needs in the expertise of family and collaborative law. Tom is a patient and compassionate listener who deeply cares about people. I highly recommend Tom and The Marks Law Firm. -B.J. Sellers President & CEO of Certified Mortgage Planners

Attorney A. Jay Fowinkle of The Marks Law Firm, P.A., is honest, caring, and reliable. I refer my clients to him because I know they are in good hands.

I have known Tom Marks for 20+ years. I know that when I send one of my clients to The Marks Law Firm they will be well cared for, whether the case is extremely complex or more straightforward. I have also known AJay Fowinkle for 10+ years through the Christian Legal Society, and he is a great advocate for his clients and cares for his people as much as Tom and the rest of the team. The picture attached is of AJay, me, and other members of CLS serving lunch to the homeless at The Daily Bread. Tom, AJay, and the Marks Team are committed to serving their clients and the community.

Our firm and I have referred several prospective clients to The Marks Law Firm over the years, including a close friend, and they have been very pleased with the representation and level of service received by Tom and his wonderful team. It is no suprise as to why Tom and his firm are still going strong and providing great legal service in the area of family law for more than 30 years. It starts at the top and Tom leads by example. He is a man of integrity and Godly character. We will continue to send clients to The Marks Law Firm. They are first class!

Tom Marks is a calm, yet strong and understanding attorney who sincerely cares about each of his clients and their goals. He is perfect for handling a collaborative divorce case to smooth over the tough issues and feelings involved in a divorce and to amicably allow his clients to move on with their lives in healthy way without the stress and anger that often goes with a contested divorce.

I came in for a short term marriage (23 months) contested divorce. No children. No assets with any positive equity for either party and no large wage gap for either party. Produced every single bank and credit card statement in under 7 days of filing and explained to firm I needed help on financial affidavit being sure to seperate business and personal expenses correctly. The firm clearly saw this case could be done and over quickly. Rather than help with affidavit they used my lack of understanding on how to do it at that time to avoid helping me and charge for unneccessary things such as $50 to email client asking if affidavit was ready. $48 to tell attorney affidavit is not ready $48 to email client asking if they could answer a phone call at certain time and so on for over 2.5 months straight. Then when confronted about the lack of help for financial affidavit the firms response was because my 2022 tax return was not finished we cannot help you with affidavit yet the tax return is not neccessary to do affidavit when all financial bank and credit card statements are available. I took my complaints to Tom Marks telling him I hoped he could be a voice of reason as the firm owner only to be quoted Abraham Lincolns quote of something close to lawyers only stocks are time and knowledge. Then to avoid answering billing questions Mr. Marks said he heard enough and that I talked over him although the talking and listening ratio were very very equal between us both. I believe he used this way of talking because he did not want to have a genuine discussing of the billing. He later emailed me that the billing stands then bullied me to sign papers to remove his firm from my case by his firm not handing over my financial affidavit that I finally did complete and notarize to opposing council and clerk of courts. This forced me to have to sign consent to let the firm withdraw as my council and submit papers myself. Even with the many financial transactions I have the time for the firm to discuss them with me and complete the form under their guidance would have been way less even at attorneys rates of $400/hr. I was billed over 5k and had no financial affidavit help and no mediation scheduled. The firm when confronted again about affidavit help said I did not get help with affidavit because I travel for work too much yet not one time when I was a grown man begging for assistance on it did they offer an in person sit down, video call, or phone call to go over the transactions on my submitted financial statements and help me.complete the affidavit. Instead they piled on time and charges for unprovable and unnecessary "work". I am still in shock with Mr. Marks' behavior towards me as I would be out of business if I treated my clients that way. I also want readers to know I understand attorneys need to be paid and sacrifice to get to where they are, however, the money will come and shouldnt come by them using their knowledge to lengthen time and make more money. That would be bad stock.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Tom Marks for almost a decase, he is an amazing attorney. Not only does he work litigation cases, but he also works collborative divorce cases too. He and the entire team at The Marks Law Firm really care about the clients. Tom's years of expertise as a family law attorney shines through his work.

I highly recommend The Marks Law Firm, P.A. if you find yourself in the unfortunate circumstance of needing a family law firm. Family law matters are commonly overwhelming.

He demonstrates genuine care about you, the client, and the outcomes of your case. Paired with good strategy, an empathetic and thoughtful approach from an attorney is a refreshingly great help for you, the client, in navigating the unfamiliar within the family law process. Your case will be in trustworthy hands with Attorney Tom Marks and his team of professionals.

Because of their dedication and heart for Family Law Clients, I don’t hesitate to refer others to The Marks Law Firm, P.A. Tom is committed to peaceful resolutions, when appropriate and his Collaborative Law experience allows his clients the opportunity to avoid litigation.
