About Mark
Biography
The past thirteen years I have been championing divorce and familial cases, crafting intimate relationships with clients, and building a concrete reputation as a reputable defender of the law. Together, we can fight for the justice and peace of mind that are rightfully yours.
- Divorce
- Child custody
- Child support
- Spousal support
- Family issues
- Equitable division of assets
I have also gone through divorce myself, so know firsthand how personally difficult this process can be, and also how to make this notoriously challenging fight as smooth and painless as possible.
I am also available to mediate or negotiate settlements between parties outside of court. As courts are running at minimum capacity indefinitely, now is the perfect time to take advantage of the circumstances; contact me to begin working towards a friendly resolution or to start preparing your case for a hearing.
Due to the pandemic, all consultations are being conducted by phone or via Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams.
This can be the hardest battle of your life. I will be there fighting for you.

Perfect uncontested divorce
My divorce went far smoother than expected. Mark put in a lot of work to try to keep it uncontested, and once the papers were signed the court had them back to us within a month. It was as painless an experience I could imagine.

Effective, Kind and Compassionate
Mark represented me during a difficult time. He was kind and compassionate and explain how the process would work in a way that other lawyers did not. That does not mean I always liked what he had to tell me, but he was honest and did not over bill me. I definitely recommend him.
