Outstanding outcome and a pleasure to work with. Very happy to have them in my corner. I have been working with Mr Bajaj for 3 years. In that time he has helped my family and I accomplish great things with a systematic and methodical approach. He and his staff were supportive, clarified a situation, and reached an amicable outcome when a misunderstanding arose. Vikas strongly stands by his clients and has developed sterling rapport as a result. I have recommended a veteran & friend to his firm, and would do so again. Vikas additionally strongly supports the veteran community.

Mr. Bajaj and Mr. Marion are perhaps some of the best, most effective defense attorneys that I've had the privilege of meeting. I ran into some legal trouble, and needed a defense attorney to help me in my case; and I could not have made a better choice than working with the Law Office of Vikas Bajaj!
Their combination of experience, talent, and knowledge managed to not only win me a favorable outcome in an unfavorable case; but they got a full dismissal of the charges against me.

So was looking for some legal help and called for a consultation and spoke I believe with Mr Bajaj himself if I'm not mistaken after speaking with a woman first who got some info from me before transferring my call to him. Very honest straightforward guy he let me know that what I wanted to do could cost quite a bit through an attorney but he took the time to explain to me exactly what the process would be to handle it myself. I would assume most attorneys out there would prefer to take my money rather than save me money and I would also assume most attorneys wouldn't bother to take

Thankful! I reached out to a few folks on Yelp and the only one who provided their info for a quick consultation was Mark. I was looking for advice about vehicle liability for my situation. Though it wasn’t his primary field, Mark was the only who gave good sound advice about my situation and what I’ve done about it already. He saved me time and money! Friendly right off the bat and professional. Folks that need a lawyer need to give Mark a call. Thanks Mark!

At a very stressful time he listened to our concerns, was supportive, respectful, and accessible any time we needed to speak with him.

Mr. Bajaj is an amazing attourney. I was wrongfully detained and enlisted the help of Mr Bajaj and his legal team. Mark, Mr. Bajaj's associate attorney, listened to what happened and reassured my that were there for me and explained everything step by step.Having a detailed expert explination is so very vritical to peace of mind when your world turns upside down. Within 24 hours of my intial call Mr. Bajaj had a explination and a course of action. Mark located video cameras in the area which caught the incident. Sarah has the kindest voice I ever heard.

I engaged the services of Mark Marion of Bajaj Law during one of the most upsetting experiences of my life. I found him to be very understanding and professional. The best thing is that my case was dismissed without even having to go to court. I cannot speak highly enough of Mark and the team at Bajaj law.

This review is long overdue. Without getting into specifics, I was wrongfully accused of hit and run. My first lawyer was a disaster and gouged me for A LOT of $$$$$. I reviewed Yelp and saw how positive the reviews were for Mr. Bajaj and his Law Practice.

From our first interactions with the office, through to getting all of our charges dropped in the court of law, the office was available to guide us, to answer our questions, and to support us in any way needed. And, because we won the case against us, they are doing the work of going after attorney's fees to help retrieve our initial costs.
