Marko Law Firm

Five stars for Samantha Sharples. We have a complex child custody case with parents on either side of the nation, making this matter even more complex. Not all attorneys can handle such cases with UCCJEA aspects. We have unfortunately been in and out of court for years, though Samantha has soaked up our years of history that she’s been provided, and has proven she knows my case sometimes better than I do. I can trust that she will take the information we provide her, and I know she is going to draft a great motion and represent my case well, and aggressively. She has been more than fair with her billing, unlike some of my attorneys in the past, and seems to get an incredible amount of work done in little time. I hope to never go through this process again, but would trust Samantha or her partners if I need to.

I would highly recommend Kimberly Cochrane to anyone who is looking for a highly proficient, responsive and caring lawyer to navigate their family legal issue. Kim has been amazing throughout the entire process - clearly outlining each step along the way, quickly addressing questions I had, and more than anything, bringing a very human-centric approach to how she works with her customers.

I took time before writing this review to ensure my review was fair and accurate to my experience. To say hiring this firm is a waste of money is, in my opinion, an understatement. When hiring Genesis we were expecting the absolute best. Please let this review be your guide to know that just because they have high reviews do not equal high quality. The lack of knowledge and guidance from my counsel was already a point of contention as my attorney, Samantha Sharples, pushed for mediation with a high conflict coparent OUTSIDE of court. Believing she had my best interest in mind, we did this - when in the mediation itself, as my ex belittled and berated me, she said nothing, in her words "not to upset him"..... so she was an awesome attorney for my ex. After pushing to go to court when mediation failed (as I had advised my attorney before mediation, in which I stated ex would drag things out, and he did... for four months) when it came to going in front of a judge, she again.... said nothing. I was incredible underwhelmed by the services of Genesis. I would not advise using this firm if you have a high conflict or difficult case.
