In his 39-year career, Morris has resolved general business disputes of all kinds involving contractual and other relationships, including matters in the areas of construction law, real estate, securities, legal malpractice, employment, professional liability, trade secrets and defense of class action matters. He has been recognized by his peers for not only his litigation skills, but also for his judgment and background in general corporate and business issues that have been informed by his many years of resolving primarily business disputes. Morris always seeks efficient, amicable, and reasonable resolutions to his clients’ problems, including informal and formal negotiation and mediation before and after a case commences. When agreed resolutions satisfactory to his clients fail, Mark’s clients benefit from his extensive experience in proceeding to more formal means of resolving the matters.
