"Mark attentively guided me through each stage of the litigation, prepared me for my deposition, and ensured that I and other wronged consumers were compensated and that purchasers in the future could not be duped by the appliance manufacturer’s misleading marketing tactics. - Katherine Danielkiewicz, Michigan

"After my experience working with Mark and his colleague, any hesitancy I may have had in the past about leading or participating in a class action has gone away.  Mark expertly countered every roadblock that the corporate defendant tried using to dismiss our case and we ultimately reached a resolution that exceeded my expectations."  - Barry Garfinkle, Pennsylvania

"Never having been involved in a class action, I was uninformed and apprehensive.  Mark and his colleagues not only explained the complexities, but maintained extensive ongoing, communications, involved us fully in all phases of the process; provided appropriate professional counsel and guidance to each participant, and achieved results that satisfied the original goals of the litigation." – Fred Sharp, New York

"It was a pleasure being represented by Mark. Above all he was patient throughout the tedious process of litigation. He is a good listener and a good communicator, which enhanced my participation and understanding of the process. He also provided excellent follow up throughout, making the process feel more like a team effort." - Louise Miljenovic, New Jersey

"We contacted Mark about our concerns about our oven’s failure to perform as advertised.  He worked with us to formulate a strategy that ultimately led to a settlement that achieved our and others’ goals and specific needs." - Candace Oliarny, Idaho

Within the first few phone meetings with Mark, we became assured as Mark explained in detail how the process worked, Mark is a great communicator. Mr. Reich is a true professional, his integrity through the years he worked with us was impeccable. Working with Mark was a truly positive experience, and have no reservations if we ever had to call on his services again."  - Richard Thome, California
