About Mark
Biography
Mark is a commercial litigation partner who primarily practices in construction-related matters and disputes of nearly all types, with an emphasis on construction payment rights and remedies including private and public payment bonds, mechanics’/materialmen’s liens, stop notices, prompt pay law, and “no-pay” claims before the Arizona Registrar of Contractors. He regularly represents suppliers, subcontractors, general contractors, owners/ developers, registered professionals, and lenders in construction contract formation, trials, arbitrations, administrative actions, and mediation/negotiation/dispute resolution.
Appearing before the civil division of the Arizona State Superior Court is often required in Mark’s practice. His court experience includes jury and bench trials, hearings, and numerous oral arguments, where he has served as lead and co-counsel in a variety of construction and non-construction litigation matters. Mark’s non-construction experience includes commercial contract breach, administrative law matters, commercial foreclosures, creditor rights, and enforcement of money judgments. He has also served as an Arbitrator in several Maricopa County Superior Court compulsory arbitration actions.
In addition to having traditional Superior Court civil litigation skills, he appears regularly before various administrative agencies and forums, most frequently the Arizona Registrar of Contractors and Arizona Office of Administrative Hearings. Mark’s hearings and appearances before the Registrar of Contractors include prosecuting and defending allegations concerning workmanship, “no-pay” complaints, and various regulatory issues that can arise when the construction contract is breached. He has also been involved in appeals from the Registrar’s office to the Superior Court, District Court, and 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Mark has extensive experience in construction matters which fall within the parallel jurisdictions of the Registrar’s office and the civil courts.

Excellent Service
Mark provided guidance and excellent legal advice on several occasions when faced with customers who did not want to pay for services rendered.

All about $$
I hired him to collect money owed to me from an Arizona-based LLC and an individual. The entire time he was more busy trying to collect money from me than collecting money from the defendants for me. I felt he purposely ran up time to get another set of retainer. When I told him that I will review...

Replied last April 17, 2013This client's matter was aggresively contested by opposing counsel and a counterclaim was filed against her and her company. She never paid more than her original $5k retainer amount, and my firm and I were compelled to withdraw from further representation due to nonpayment and refusal to replenish the retainer. I later learned that her prior counsel was also unpaid. Adding insult to economic injury, this person is now defaming me with posts such as this. My mistake was not recognizing sooner that this person is a bad apple. In 16 years of practice, I've had to withdraw from represention approximately five times. Unfortunately, this was one of those times.
