Marcus Cheung - Garden City Personal Injury Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

Marcus Cheung, a partner at Smith, Cheung & Lauterborn PC, compassionately embodies the vocation of a lawyer who understands the spirit of service to the individuals who select him as their attorney. He formulates arguments for the sake of logically arranging evidence to substantiate the claims of his clients, but he also works with a sensitivity that reflects the background of someone who knows how to advocate for others with sympathy and grace. The sense of indebtedness that Marcus humbly feels towards his community and his world animates his calling as a defender for the cares, dreams, and hopes of others in his midst. For Marcus, every claim from his client will deserve nothing less than all the care and diligence that he can muster from the totality of his experience and his repertoire of insights gleaned from years of study in the field of jurisprudence. As someone who profoundly empathizes with the struggles of the downtrodden and the vulnerable, Marcus demonstrates a servant’s heart that ennobles his awareness of a social contract that reconciles the concerns of generations past, present, and future..
