About

Hi, I’m Mark. I am a great attorney because I’m honest and direct.  I don’t beat around the bush and I don’t want to waste your hard-earned money.  I just want to help you get the answers you need and give you the best advice that I can.

I specialize in Intellectual Property Law; I have been a Registered Patent Attorney for 25 years.

In my time as an attorney, I have learned that the law is ever-changing.  I strive to stay on top of these changes in order to give my clients the best possible service.

I am proud to work with LegalZoom, providing access to legal services for all.  The U.S. legal system is complicated, and you shouldn’t have to traverse it alone.

I provide my clients with experience, candor and cost certainty.  In my spare time, you can usually find me at the ice rink with my kids.

Why practice law

I love science, but I found out in college that I hate blood! So I became a patent lawyer instead.

Fun fact

I ran track and field and even was the mascot in college!
