Professional, Passionate and very hard working professional

Our California based company was sued in Washington State for trademark issues. Mark have guided our company to make the right legal choice, explained to us our legal options, and help us effectively negotiated a settlement to the best of our company's interest. As many knows, legal issues and la...wsuit are a lengthy and stressful process. During the whole process, Mark have truly shown us his ability to negotiate, his professional expertise in the matters. His involvement in the case have made us truly feels like we have someone professional on our side that can help us solve problems, and get the job done. As a conclusion, Mark is very professional, passionate, very hard working professional, and he knows how to handle the legal situation in a way so that you do not have to be the stressful one. I would continue to seek Mark's service in the future if I ever needed any, and would most definitely recommend Mark to anyone with IP, copyright and Trademark needs.

quick response, well drafted letter, problem resolved :)

Mark was very prompt to reply to my initial inquiry. He has tremendous experience regarding our situation and was quick to offer advice and go over the next steps so that we knew exactly what might happen in the near future. Luckily our "situation' did not escalate, perhaps it was due to his we...ll crafted letter, but regardless we would come back to Mark and his firm for any future trade usage infringement work.

Mark Walter won our case! Highly recommend him.

Mark saved our indoor children's playground business. I was faced with frivolous patent, copy right and infringement lawsuit by our competitor. We were so stressed out when we were served patent lawsuit by our competitor at our grand opening celebration. The competitor tried to shut our small busin...ess down but Mark Walter's experience, education and knowledge on patent law, he won our case. He is the lawyer to get the job done. Mark is a champion and a fighter. I highly recommend Mark Walter! If someone tries to sue you, do not panic and contact Mr. Walter.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
