A true advocate, in every way
Mark was absolutely wonderful to me, explaining things in depth and sensitive to the stressful situation that I had put myself in. He has a comprehensive understanding of the justice system and knows how to navigate what I came to experience as a system of Byzantine complexity. He does not sugarcoa...
"I endorse this lawyer. I recently had the opportunity to sit in on one of Mark's trials. I reserved enough time to see PTC, jury selection and the entire trial through verdict. I could go on about the details, but the most important things are that he had this jury before selection was finished, he was prepared for anything so I can tell that he worked very hard on this case before getting here. He knew all the facts and all relevant laws. He stood up and fought for his client. But most importantly, he appeared to have a great time doing it. I highly recommend Mark and his team."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mark is a very qualified attorney. He will work hard on your behalf and can handle complex criminal cases."
"Mark has over 20 years of courtroom experience. Having worked as a judge, prosecutor, and defense attorney, he understands the perspective of all parties involved to achieve results for his clients. I encourage you to call him if you are charged with a DUI, criminal, or traffic offense in Kittatas, Grant, Yakima, Chelan, or Douglas county."
"A highly competent and experienced attorney. I would refer family, friends and clients to Mark without hesitation."
