Senior counsel, without the silo.

Danny Marks is a litigator, business attorney, and advisor who enjoys finding creative, meaningful solutions to complex problems.

His work spans commercial disputes, intra-corporate disputes, trade secret theft, restrictive covenant violations, employment and wage disputes, class actions, breach of fiduciary duty claims, fraud claims, construction matters, and real estate disputes.

He represents clients in federal and state court, in arbitration, and on appeal — and counsels businesses on the transactions and governance decisions that help avoid disputes in the first place.

Before private practice, Danny clerked for the Honorable Michael J. Brown of the Arizona Court of Appeals, experience that continues to shape how he approaches briefs, arguments, and strategy.
