Mark is an experienced, responsive attorney who has focused on labor and employment law and litigation his entire career.  He takes the time to understand his clients' operations, workforces and challenges to provide tailored advice for the optimal approach to each situation.  Not only does Mark help his clients make decisions for today, he keeps an eye on the long-run to help employers achieve what they want down the road.

Serving the employment-related needs of private and public employers throughout the region, Mark routinely assists employers in establishing and maintaining employment policies, conducting workplace investigations, negotiating employment contracts and severance agreements, conducting engagement surveys, and training supervisors and other employees.  He also negotiates collective bargaining agreement matters with unions on behalf of employers.
