Mark graduated from Utah State University with a bachelor’s degree in journalism in 2004. After earning magna cum laude honors from the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law in 2008, Mark spent two years clerking for three state court judges in Provo. Seeing every case from the judge’s point of view helped Mark gain a perspective he would not otherwise have had, learning, for example, just how much judges appreciate a respectful demeanor and being candid with the Court. Mark also worked for more than ten years focusing extensively on fathers' rights. He now uses that experience to help both his male and female clients, knowing what works best from both sides as they navigate through the court system. Mark has successfully argued cases throughout Utah, in both district and juvenile court.

Mark is skilled at dealing with all aspects of family law, including helping clients obtain modifications, enforce court orders, and achieve fair custody and support awards. Going through a painful divorce or a custody battle can be one of the most difficult times in someone’s life, and Mark is there to help every step of the way. He understands that some cases call for a resolution through mediation, and others require court intervention, and he helps his clients make the best decisions possible for their case. Throughout the process, Mark strives to be available to answer any questions about his clients’ cases and to provide candid counsel. Mark puts his clients’ interests first.

Mark loves spending time with his wife and four boys. He enjoys basketball, golf, movies, and spending time outdoors, and is an avid Utah Jazz fan.
