Honesty is a Virtue at Michael Marquez Law Offices in San Mateo County
Michael Marquez prides himself on being straightforward with clients. Unlike others, he gives realistic, unexaggerated expectations of the possible results of each case. Michael Marquez explains, "I don't oversell the likely results and I'm honest about the likelihood of winning. I'm upfront with them about everything."

He's also able to see alternative ways to reach the best outcome for a client and then explains it to them. Michael says, "I tell them this is what we need to do to get a certain outcome. So if someone doesn't want to pay as much child support, then I will show them how being more involved with the child can lower the expected support payments."

Other firms quote deceptively low retainers in an effort to get the client, with the plan to add many costs later. Michael Marquez has heard of this too. "Cheaper attorneys aren't cheaper in the long run," he shares. "Often attorneys that quote too low just to get the client just walk away when that retainer runs out. I give clients honest and accurate quotes on retainers right at the outset. And we never incur costs without your permission first."

And attorney Michael Marquez considers the financial situation of each client to come up with the best legal strategy so that each client gets the most effective results in a way they can actually afford. He explains, "I make the time getting to know your life situation. And I will also work something out with you if I know the case is going to last longer." One client named Scott described Michael Marquez as "...not the typical law office", citing "...great consideration for clients...and a vested interest in them as people."

He says, "I've been doing this a long time and I know the ins and outs of the courts and judges in this area so well that I can tell how the judge is going to rule when they come in. That familiarity means better results for the client and it's what you want in an attorney."

Even after a lengthy career, Michael Marquez stays educated on the latest developments in the legal system. "This type of law changes throughout time," he says. "I do a lot of continuing education to stay on top of the changes. I continue to invest time in different courses and lectures; one of them is a class of all of the changes that have happened in the previous year."
