What judges have said about Mark Nation<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\u201cMr. Nation has an impeccable reputation for competence, diligence, and professionalism.\u201d

\u201cThe efficiency with which Mr. Nation prepares his cases is not lost on this Court.\u201d

\u201cThe Court is familiar with Mr. Nation and has seen him in this Court many times over the years\u2026. The Court is aware of Mr. Nation\u2019s reputation for competence, diligence, and professionalism in the legal community.\u201d

\u201cThe Court also finds a high degree of skill was required to perform the legal services properly in this case. The Court finds that Mr. Nation as Plaintiff\u2019s attorney, was required in this case because his significant and particular skills were necessary to properly present and try this case to this particular jury.\u201d

\u201cTypically, someone of Mr. Nation\u2019s reputation and abilities as a trial lawyer is especially required when you\u2019re going to the mat in a particular case, like this was.\u201d

\u201cMr. Nation\u2019s trying of the case was efficient and effective. I find this case was extremely well tried before the jury. The jury actually asked to award more damages than were asked for. After the jury was instructed they were unable to award more and must rely on the evidence, the jury came back and said they found something in the evidence which would allow them to award more than had been asked for. \u2026 I have never experienced that response from a jury before, and it was frankly amazing.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n
