| Mark is a tireless advocate whose deep knowledge of real estate and litigation law and related intellectual capacities are complemented by practical common sense -- a quality that is unfortunately lacking in many lawyers. Mark's extensive public speaking background puts him head and shoulders above his opponents in the courtroom setting. I always turn to Mark when I need assistance in the Inland Empire. |
