|
|
|
Marc J. Krasney is a business lawyer in Houston. He is originally from Trenton, New Jersey and got to Texas as fast as he could—when he was 6. After attending schools in The Woodlands, Marc went to St. Mary’s University in San Antonio majoring in both Theology and Political Science. Before graduating, he decided to become a lawyer. He moved back to Houston and attended South Texas College of Law graduating in 1999.
Marc spent 8 years as a litigator with two different firms and as much as he enjoyed litigation and arguing in the courtroom, his true passion was counseling businesses about their business. With that, he realized he needed to offer businesses a change from the traditional billing concept and think of a revolutionary way to connect businesses with his expertise without the surprise legal bills. So, together with Phonoscope, he founded the Virtual In-House Counsel Program and opened his own law firm—Marc J. Krasney, P.C. Now, businesses can be connected with Phonoscope’s state of the art technology to Marc’s office. Neither party has to travel to see the other as everything is truly virtual. And, the best part is that the fees are monthly, charged to a credit card and the plans are tailored to fit the businesses needs. Check out his website at www.HoustonVirtualLawyer.com.
In addition to being Houston’s Virtual Lawyer, he is President of Phonoscope Legal Services (PLS) which provides litigation support services to law firms utilizing the same virtual technology as in his law firm. PLS provides court reporting, medical records retrieval and all types of printing services. PLS is truly revolutionary as they are the only company in Houston offering virtual court reporting where all the parties do not have to travel to one place; instead, they are connected at the speed of light through Phonoscope. PLS is a pioneer in this market and is truly doing its’ part to help save the environment. Check out that website at www.PhonoscopeLegal.com.
In 2006, he was chosen as one of Houston’s “Top Professionals on the Fast Track” by H Texas Magazine.
Marc is licensed to practice in all State Courts of Texas and the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of Texas. He is a member of the American Bar Association, Houston Bar Association, and Texas Young Lawyers Association. He is also a member of the University of Houston Small Business Development Center Networks’ Direct Business Assistance (DBA) program. In addition, Marc serves on the Board of Directors for the Petroleum Club of Houston, Chairman of the Petroleum Club of Houston Entertainment Committee, Past Chairman of the Petroleum Club of Houston International Committee and a member of Riverbend Country Club.
