I didn’t think that the divorce process could be so smooth but Mark Brent and his team made it happen! I hired him in late January and my divorce was finalized mid-March. They handled everything and I mean EVERYTHING. They kept great communication through the whole process with me as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better firm to help me with all of this. Thank you so much!

Mark not only has consummate skill in the area of family law but his people skills highlighted by his ability to communicate effectively while focusing his client on the issues that really matter is something above the level of most attorneys. Mark has the skill to quickly to sketch alternative scenarios with both the upside and downside risk clearly outlined. He has the talent to help his clients set the emotions aside and deal only with facts and reality. Highly recommend!
Mark Brent handled my separation and divorce with courtesy and professionalism. He advocated for me in every way throughout the process, always had my best interests in mind, and was available whenever needed to answer any questions I had, no matter how big or small. He provided a very satisfactory outcome to a complicated situation. I have recommended him and his firm many times without hesitation, and have returned myself as the need arose.
Mr. Mark Brent is an award-winning attorney and author of Divorce Proceedings in Illinois. To say he is outstanding is not sufficient. Mr. Brent lead me through every step of my case with his controlled and knowledgeable expertise. Mark is straight-forward honest, cost-conscious and efficient. You can count on his timely responses and patient listening to solve problems. My children and I are in a better place today because God blessed us with Mr. Mark Brent.
I hired Mark to represent me in my divorce. I appreciate Mark's patience and excellent communication skills. He was patient with explaining the divorce process to me and what my options were. He would often offer guidance but would not direct me on what to do, which was both helpful and unhelpful at times (having never been through a divorce before). Overall, I would recommend Mark. He is a straight shooter and I felt he looked out for my best interest both monetarily and emotionally
Mr. Brent and his team did a very good job taking care of my child support case. He was very knowledgeable and informative. He answered all the questions I asked and never left me wondering. He represented me at court when I wasn't able to and I'm extremely grateful for that. I would definitely recommend Mr. Brent and his team to anyone seeking legal assistance.
Smart Guy - Knows the Law! While divorce is never cheap Mark was more than fair with his billing practices. Highly Recommended!
