Select Cases

Victim of Identity Theft Won Large Settlement Against Bank!
Mr. Mark successfully represented a victim of identity theft in a lawsuit brought by a bank against the victim. The bank sought to collect from the victim the money stolen through identity theft, but Mr. Mark aggressively defended this lawsuit and countersued the bank for its negligence and other unlawful acts. In the end, not only did the bank agree to drop its lawsuit, remove the debt, and restore the victim’s credit, but the bank paid a large confidential settlement to the victim.
 
Over One Million Dollars Jury Verdict!
Florida jury renders verdict for a client of over one million dollars against a car rental company and the driver for striking the plaintiff/client twice with the rented vehicle. Mr. Mark served as co-counsel in presenting the case to the jury, which resulted in such high award, considering that the driver was a girlfriend of the plaintiff and the plaintiff was an admitted alcoholic who was intoxicated. The jury found that the girlfriend/driver first negligently,then intentionally drove over the plaintiff, making the car rental company jointly liable.
 
Discovery of the Driver’s Use of Medications Resulted in Large Settlement!
Following highly contested litigation and involvement of regulatory agencies in representing a client who suffered an ankle injury from a highway accident, Mr. Mark reached a large insurance settlement with a trucking company one month before the scheduled jury trial. Mr. Mark had found proof that the truck driver’s use of medications caused the accident and filed the amended complaint seeking punitive damages.
 
25 Times the Original Written Offer to the First Lawyer!
Recently, Mr. Mark took over a contested case from a client’s first lawyer,

Wrongful Death Claim Partially Settled for Carrier’s Policy Limits!
A retired former secretary of partner, Freeman Mark, was headed to her sister’s funeral when their vehicle was rear-ended at a high rate of speed by a distracted tortfeasor in Orlando, resulting in a total loss of her family’s vehicle and critically injuring her. She was hospitalized with manageable injuries, but soon was transferred to ICU where she remained for several months in a comatose state, and she eventually died. She turned age 80 while in ICU. Her family brought the case to Mr. Mark. After presentation of the claim and demand to the liable carrier, GEICO, the case was promptly resolved with the carrier for its policy limits, with existing wrongful death claims remaining against a number of the medical providers.
