Mark’s Path to Personal Injury Law
Mark’s passion for the law began at an early age while working at the family law office next door to his childhood home. He fondly recalls sorting through injury case files, answering the phones, and watching personal injury jury trials while growing up, which ignited his lifelong fascination with the law.
At age 12, Mark was hooked. He knew that he wanted to become a trial lawyer. He took classes year round at The Ohio State University in an effort to shave a year off his undergraduate degree. Mark did the same while at Capital University Law School and managed to finish in a record two-and-a-half years after successfully petitioning the school to change its three-year residency requirement. He received his Juris Doctor with high honors. A freshly licensed attorney at the ripe age of 23, Mark left his job at the Columbus Prosecutor’s Office, and hung his shingle in Columbus, Ohio.
With nearly 20 years of dedicated experience in personal injury cases, Mark has helped hundreds of clients get the compensation they deserve. Mark has litigated these cases at nearly every level throughout Ohio.
Let Mark put his lifelong passion and experience to work for you.

The most common injuries that come across our desk are whiplash claims to the neck and back. Insurance companies and defense firms always try to discount and minimize these claims but they’re as real as anything else. Don’t let them talk you down because your injuries are “subjective” in nature. They can oftentimes cause chronic and long lasting pain.
Objective injuries include scars, burns, and disfigurement to your body. They also include cuts, bruises, broken bones, torn ligaments and tendons, and injuries that may need surgery.
On the flip side, brian injuries are some of the most traumatic, long lasting, and complex in nature and they need proper handling and care, both medically and legally.
Tragically, wrongful death is the ultimate type of injury from an accident, leaving the family with lifelong trauma, pain, and expense.
