"Charles is an excellent attorney! I was involved in an estate sale with him and there was a major issue that was preventing the family from selling a property that was beyond mine or his control. Charles stepped in and got the court to allow the sale to go through. It was above and beyond what I have ever experienced. 5-STARS all the way across!"

"Mr. Markofski is my guardian angel working as a lawyer in PA. I have made mistakes with the law twice but I was so smart and lucky to have chosen Markofski law. My first case 5 years ago was a big mess that involved multiple charges and could have ruined my life, but in the end he was able to plead the right way and use the right evidence to get the charges dismissed except one that only resulted in probation. I thought i would never get in trouble with the law again but i went through a bad time in my life again and got a DUI in the highest offense. Because of my prior, it was a tough case but after a lot of efforts, Mr. Markofski was able to get the best outcome possible. Mr. Markofski defended me with the highest knowledge of the law and always explained every scenario so I was fully aware of what to expect. In addition, he mentored me about life that helped in so many ways. I thank you so much Mr. Markofski!"
