Mark James, Counsel and member of Maddin Hauser’s Real Estate and Corporate and Business groups, possesses a powerful blend of inclinations, instincts, and talents that make him particularly well-suited to his work on a broad spectrum of transactional, corporate, and real estate matters. A lifelong penchant for seeing problems as opportunities to find solutions, a personable style that stands side-by-side with a steely determination to achieve his clients’ goals, and an eye for detail that doesn’t obscure the bigger picture – these all form the foundation of Mark’s consistent ability to close deals efficiently and conclusively.
Over the course of his accomplished career, Mark has consummated countless deals and earned the trust and friendship of clients who have benefited from both his sound counsel and demonstrable personal investment in their success. Whether he is shepherding a merger, acquisition, or strategic partnership, facilitating the purchase, sale, or financing for a commercial or residential real estate transaction, or assisting a business owner with their day-to-day challenges, Mark relentlessly focuses on one thing: getting his clients to where they want to be.
An indispensable aspect of Mark’s approach is the time he takes to understand each client’s strategic vision so he can evaluate opportunities through that prism and offer guidance accordingly. Similarly, his effectiveness as a negotiator and dealmaker is enhanced by his ability to recognize the motivations and interests of other parties and address them in a way that bridges differences while still advancing and protecting his clients’ interests.
Mark’s experience extends beyond transactional, real estate, and corporate matters to the representation of lenders and borrowers in complex financing and secured transactions, as well as work with cannabis industry clients and on technology issues.
