Mark Mercier is a CROOK! He specifically said that my case wouldn't cost more than the retainer. There were no surprises and very clean cut easy case. CFS was even backing me and my ex was agreeable. Sends me a bill for THREE TIMES THE AMOUNT QUOTED!! This man is a thief, do not deal with him unless you want to be scammed!

the absolute worst lawyer ive ever delt with. his suggestion was after 2 years of retaining his services that it might be easier to just give her what she wants. the day before court he told me he couldn't be there so we should just agree with what they ask for.paid him 5 figures for absolutely nothing.then had to hire a real lawyer to straighten things out and completely start over!

Twice, I was ready to settle for $1100/mth child support & $720/mth spousal, but Mark convinced me that there was more to be gained. We went to case conferences for 4 yrs & nothing was resolved. I should have listened to the judge & taken the settlement my ex offered. Instead, the home I purchased has a lien against that Mark placed without telling me & I am being forced to sell it to cover my legal debt. Because I do not have a place to live once my house closes, my ex has been awarded interim custody of our three children & I lose the child support I had until I can provide a suitable home. I have burned thru my share of our marital assets in legal bills and lost the equity in my home. Let me be clear, I went from having my children 60% of the time with a $$ for child support to having 0% custody, no child support, no retirement savings & no home. Marks's response to this was, "There are always risks involved." Was't it his job to ADVISE ME? Crappy, greedy lawyer.

Albeit, my divorce is still in the works, it is my ex who is making the divorce procedure go on longer than it needs to. Mark is difficult to get a hold of because he has many clients that he must respond to and he works on the basis of which fire needs attending to first. He has gotten me more dollars in the settlements and we are continuing to work together to resolve the matter once and for all. I am pleased with his attention to detail and his retention to the matters at hand. I would recommend him but would warn them that he is very busy and therefore, is not always quit to respond to an email or telephone call. But when he does, works turn into action and results are achieved.

It took me 10 years to get out of a 9 year marriage. All I got out of it was a big bill for services rendered....His legal assistant and I talked more than he and I did. My settlement came with my name incorrectly spelt and a whole lot of errors in what was agreed on. Run don't walk away from him.

Mercier is dragging my divorce out for 3 years now. I have no more money and He tells me that I will get big dollars from the settlement. Which is not true since our equity is all gone and he put leans on my property so his fees are getting paid. He doesn't return calls, never lets you know what his up to, and he send's you a big bill in return. My kids are torn apart by what he is doing, and he explains's to me that everything he is doing is in the best interest for the kids. What the "HELL" does he know about raising a family; he has no kids and is practicing family law. That in my view is just discussting and embarrassing to the lawyer community.

I had made 3 appointments and every time it get's close, he canceled. He is a waist of time since i received 2 bills for way to much and I can not even get a hold of him. Now that I checked around and found out that no other lawyer likes to deal with him, I will look for someone else. I wish I came across this website first. Do not spent your hard earned money on him. RUN!!!!

Free advise here people, take your money and run, he will bill you till your try and then drop you and say that he lost communication with you. he is draging my divorce out for years, everytime we are close to settle he has another excuse and i got another big bill, i admit i made a mistake, and i should of have spent my money on my kids. Try to settle with your ex, because once he has you, he wil milk you like a cow and then kick you to the butcher once your dry. So far i'm out thousands of dollars and have noting, he dose not understand your family situation since he dose not have one on his own. Good luck!!!

This guy won't settle - even if you do. Why? It's all about the money for his pocket. He'll drag things out until he gets all the money you thought you had coming to you. His bills really don't explain much, and if you ask for a detailed explanation, you end up waiting for a loooong time without any answers. Impossible to get a hold of. Didn't keep me up to date. Sure he knows his stuff. If you'd rather see all your money go to him instead of your kids, then he's the guy for you.

Run!! Mark will take your money and give you nothing in return.
He doesn't return phone calls or emails, but he is quick to charge you for them.
He promisses to setup meetings with my wife's lawyer and never
follows through. If you looking for customer service from your lawyer
pass on this one.
