I've had Alina and her paralegal Cindy for a couple years now. They are a dynamic duo! Very helpful, knowledgeable, and organized! Alina is ruthless in court! They will fight for you but also tell you when you are wrong. After going through a few lawyers I will always use and recommend them!

My experience with Beacon Law has been excellent. From my first conversation with Cindy, our situation was handled professionally and swiftly. Everything was explained to my satisfaction. My calls and texts were handled in a timely fashion. I did not have to worry about when my questions and concerns would be addressed. The staff was courteous, friendly and very well prepared. I am so pleased with the service that I received and will use Beacon Law again if a need arises.

Absolutely horrific representation. My friend who has suffered a lifetime of domestic abuse hired her for custody. Her children were also being devastatingly abused and neglected. I was with my friend on her initial consult with Alina. Alina did not fight for them nor their rights, instead she handed over their case to opposing counsel on a silver platter. Provided absolutely no defense and advised her to bend over and take it conceding to their every demand. My friend lost custody of her children after Alina’s representation at trial (or lack there of) and her case has been detrimental to their lives since as it’s been impossible for her to correct Alina’s mistakes. All the evidence of abuse and neglect Alina did not submit at trial as exhibits therefore they can never be legally used in future hearings due to res judicata according to the judge so my friend has lost any ability to prove the history of abuse. Alina only submitted a few exhibits at trial (less than 15) which were mostly text messages between the parents, which provided no solid evidence for appeal nor enough evidence to properly win a trial. She neglected to include any of the evidence of abuse and acting out of the children that my friend provided her from the school and other caretakers at trial. Alina also failed to subpoena witnesses at an emergency hearing prior to the custody trial where the children disclosed horrific ongoing sexual abuse. My friend had to beg her to file that hearing when her children disclosed abuse and Alina tried talking her out of it because Cindy her paralegal was on vacation. My friend called me during her lunch break from work about to puke due to all the horror and I encouraged her to go to Alina’s office in person and beg her to file the emergency hearing and take no for an answer. Alina finally filed the emergency hearing and told my friend prior to that hearing she was going to subpoena the police officer and school director who had reports of the detailed disclosures of sexual abuse and acting out, then the morning of the emergency hearing she told my friend she had failed to subpoena those parties. When the judge asked to look at the evidence and emails the school was sending to her detailing the sexual acting out, Alina was not prepared and had no print outs of the evidence from the school. My friend brought 4 copies of the emails as she could sense Alina just didn’t seem to care, wasn’t listening to my friend and most likely would not be prepared. When Alina lost her case at trial she also refused to appeal when my friend begged her as she continued receiving reports from school about her children’s sexual acting out. She showed Alina a 16 page journal kept by the school teachers the month after trial of sexual acting out behaviors of her three year old and Alina told her no, she would not appeal. Alina also told her when I was with her at consult “that was her favorite judge,”. Why would she want to upset her favorite judge by appealing her egregious order? She and her children have been further harmed and dragged to family court proceedings constantly the past three years by her abusive ex as her abuser tries non stop to gain full custody. Since Alina did such a poor job laying the foundation at her first trial she has been in a losing battle since and her ex uses the court to continue his power and control over her and her children. The legal abuse that Alina poorly defended against has cost my friend over $270,000 in legal fees and expenses these past three years to combat against her exes continuous false claims since Alina last represented her. She has lost everything. My friend felt like Alina and her paralegal Cindy didn’t listen, and didn’t believe her so they didn’t fight for her and her children. Her awful representation made absolutely no sense. I watch the damage that has been done to her children and I watch her suffer daily. She is a dear friend of mine and their lives should have never been destroyed like this. I would never ever recommend this Attorney to anyone.

I reached out to Beacon for help with a property deed transfer. They were extremely professional and helpful with everything that needed done, and got everything done in a timely manner. I can't thank them enough for all their help.

Mark was a “beacon” of hope to my daughter and I at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of satisfactory resolution seemed nigh on impossible. Not only was he able to defend us from an unjust accusation, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and the one I care about most. Marks relentless pursuit for excellence and willingness to fight resulted in the best possible outcome for my case. My daughter and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mark and the team without reservation.

I reached out to beacon law to assist me with a debt resolution issue. I was highly impressed with their dedicated time and commitment. I was able to successfully address my debt issue and it was completed in such a swift manner. This honestly left me in awe of just how fast this law firm works. If you ever have an issue trust in beacon law they won’t let you down. They communicate with you through the entire process. This was by far one of the best experiences I have had . I will always return to beacon law should I need their services again. This is the only law firm you need in your corner. Above and beyond!!!!

My case was a bit more complicated then others and I needed additional paperwork to be done, he did it without charging me extra or complaining. I appreciate what he has done for me and I pray that I don’t have to use him again, in a good way. Thank you so much.

Mark, Alina, and Cynthia made a great team in assisting us with our legal needs. They were very welcoming, friendly, professional, and explained everything in easy to understand terms. Paperwork was handled quickly and efficiently. We highly recommend Beacon Law!

Alina was very effective at handling my custody conciliation. She is very smart, articulate, kind and helpful. She’s so good at what she does! I highly recommend her. From the moment you meet her it’s clear that your case is important to her

Rick was great. He took the time to go over everything with me help me whenever I needed help always there whenever I called or if he was in court he would get back to me right after. I appreciated everything he did taking the burden of all of my debt being cleared. I highly recommend Beacon law they are the best.

Attorney Dusharm and Cindy (her paralegal) are amazing! They helped us with a difficult custody case a few years ago and then more recently when we had a concern arise. They're quick to respond, compassionate, and very knowledgeable with family law. Their clients are more than a number or a paycheck. They truly care about the people they work with and it shows. I would recommend them to anyone in need of legal help!
