Our tech startup faced a critical and contentious dispute with a former partner over intellectual property rights and contractual obligations. The situation was complex and threatened to derail our operations. Mark Burnside at Davis Wright Tremaine was recommended to us, and his counsel proved invaluable. Despite his relatively recent recognition in the field, his command of commercial litigation strategy was immediately apparent. He meticulously analyzed our agreements, outlined the risks and potential outcomes with clarity, and guided us through a mediation process that felt overwhelming. His professionalism and calm demeanor kept us focused. The result was a favorable settlement that protected our core assets and allowed us to move forward. Mark’s recognition in commercial litigation is well-deserved, and I wouldn’t hesitate to engage his services again for any significant business legal matter.
