Hired Attorney Mark A. Sessums

Mr.Sessums Firm, went over and beyond the call of duty. I will refer him to anyone in need. He showed compassion,Honesty and Respect. I have rated this firm a 5 star,because of the service that was render to me. His team, Amber Messenger-Paralegal, there was never to many emails sent to her that was not timely replied back nor too many phone calls that she timely returned. Mr.Sessumms we as a community need you to be re-creative a 1000 times, there could never be too many of "YOU". Respectfully

Hired Attorney Mark A. Sessums

Mr. Sessums and his office is top notch. I had been in battle with my ex husband over legal issues and my children for quite some time. Mr. Sessums won everything that I had asked for in my case. He made a very difficult emotional time worth all of my efforts. He is truly a spectacular attorney and individual!

Hired Law Firm

I have been involved in a lengthy and complicated divorce for the last four years. During that time I hired three other attorneys who I feel were not trustworthy and did not treat my case with the skill and diligence it required. After deciding there were no longer attorneys a person could trust, I met Mark. He stepped in to an absolute mess of a divorce and with honesty and integrity helped me with my case. I will always be grateful to Mark for restoring my faith in the legal system.

First rate. Provides details with his advice so you can make well informed choices. Keeps up with filings, which the attorney I switched from failed to do. Stayed on phone/online late with me to help get info during child's medical emergency and to facilitate a negotiation on the eve of a court date. Very effective representation.

Hired Attorney Mark A. Sessums

Mark Sessums has been a very important person in my life during the most trying of times. His legal knowledge has guided me through the divorce and custody process and his caring and compassion has been second to none. His staff and he always made time for me when I had a crisis, of which I’ve had several. They were comforting in every aspect of the process. I have and would proudly recommended Mark to any person that asked. I will forever be indebted to Mark for his help.

Hired Attorney Mark A. Sessums

Mr. Sessums represented me during my lengthy divorce. Throughout the process I found him to be extremely intelligent, compassionate and scrupulous. From the first interview to Final Judgement I was timely informed of all aspects of my case. Mr. Sessums' experience and understanding of the system, as well as his extensive breadth of knowledge was highly impressive. During his many arguments in front of the Court he was always well prepared, articulate and extremely persuasive.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
