Areas of Practice

Mark is willing to take on insurance companies, governmental entities, individuals, and corporate defendants throughout the State of Washington and around the Pacific Northwest. Below are some of the areas that Mark is ready to handle.

Medical Negligence

 

Unfortunately, medical professionals can make mistakes that result in serious injury or death. Proving your case against a doctor requires an advocate who can understand complex medical concepts and engage in skilled advocacy.

Vehicle Accidents

When you are injured in a traffic accident, the opposing insurance company will use every tool at its disposal to avoid compensating you for your injuries.  Mark is ready to fight to ensure that you receive the settlement or trial outcome you deserve.

Police Misconduct

Police officers can use excessive force or cause wrongful death. Bringing claims for police misconduct—and overcoming the “qualified immunity” defense that police enjoy—requires exceptional knowledge and experience. 

Product Liability

Countless individuals have been injured by products that are poorly designed and unreasonably unsafe. Mark is ready to hold the corporations who sell and market these products accountable for the harm they cause.

Appeals

Mark is an experienced appeals attorney. He clerked for a federal appeals court and regularly files briefs and argues in federal and state appellate courts, including the Washington Supreme Court and Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. He has also worked on many cases that have reached the United States Supreme Court. In appropriate cases, Mark will handle an appeal on a contingent fee basis.
