About Mark
Biography
My goal is to restore hope to those crushed under an unforgiving criminal justice system. Over the past 10 years, I've handled thousands of cases from complex felonies to simple criminal speeding tickets. In every case, my goal is to help those charged with crimes restore their hope, dignity, and future. Even if you've already been convicted of a crime, I can help. A portion of my practice is dedicated to helping clients convicted of crimes restore their constitutional rights and set aside convictions so they can have a fresh start.
