He has qualified and testified as an expert in approximately 30 cases in various federal and local jurisdictions. Mark has earned a reputation among attorneys for presenting information in a clear and concise manner easily understood by judges and juries.
Attorneys have called on Mark to review audited financial statements and accountants’ audit workpapers to evaluate accountants’ compliance with professional standards. Likewise, he reviews tax returns to evaluate their compliance with tax law. Mark also reviews business and tax records to identify assets and transactions not disclosed in bankruptcy filings.

He co-presented “Appraisal of business interruption losses” at a Property Loss Research Bureau (PLRB) Claims Conference, the claims industry’s largest educational gathering.
