William Pincus, Lawsuits and disputes Attorney on Oct 15, 2019
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Mark is a smart, tough, seasoned litigator. Any client in a commercial dispute would be well-represented with Mark as his or her lawyer.
Edward Welch, Litigation Attorney on May 30, 2018
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Mark is an excellent and compassionate attorney; someone you want on your side. He is a staple in the community and well liked and respected by his peers.
David Steinfeld, Lawsuits and disputes Attorney on Jan 30, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Mark and I had a case against each other. I was very happy when the defendant retained Mark because I knew he'd advocate diligently for his client, but do so honorably and ethically. That makes the entire process more efficient and less costly for both parties. Mark is also one of the few experts in business litigation in Florida. When I needed panelists for a Palm Beach Bar presentation, I turned to Mark. It is illustrative of his character that his former "enemy" in a case would respect him enough to ask him to sit on a panel of experts in front of other lawyers.
Benjamin Kuipers, Litigation Attorney on Nov 18, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Mark is a well respected, proficient attorney. I endorse this lawyer.
Joel Rothman, Litigation Attorney on May 10, 2013
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer.
Christian Lassen, Unknown Attorney on Nov 20, 2012
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community.
Bruce Silver, Litigation Attorney on Nov 11, 2012
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Mark is a great lawyer. He is industrious and proficient. I endorse this lawyer.
David Shiner, Litigation Attorney on Oct 12, 2012
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Mark is a diligent and intelligent attorney. I have worked with him in the past and would be honored to work with him in the future on other litigation. He brings solid experience to the table. .
