About Mark
Biography
I enjoy interacting with people, and helping them resolve their disputes. My values include:
:
Concern and capacity for each individual in light of their particular circumstances;
Civility and respect to lawyers and non-lawyers;
My reputation is aggressive, understanding and effective advocacy. I believe in working hard to achieve the best settlment possible through negotiation and mediation but when that is not possible to aggressively advocate for my clients in court.
