About Mark Holscher

Mark Holscher is a partner in the Firm’s Downtown Los Angeles and Century City offices and is a member of the Commercial Litigation Practice Group. In the last five years, Mark has obtained plaintiffs verdicts and settlements of over $1.1 billion, with multiple nine figure recoveries. Mark has also successfully defended clients against multiple claims in excess of a billion dollars. Mark’s background as a former Assistant United States Attorney coupled with his successful civil trial record has established him as a “go to” lawyer for companies and individuals facing significant litigation. Opposing counsel have described him as “bright and extremely talented” and his colleagues refer to him as an “extraordinary trial lawyer.”

Mark has acted as lead trial and appellate counsel to blue chip companies and their executives in a wide variety of securities related cases ranging from alleged individual and corporate securities law violations, merger and acquisition and hostile takeover litigation, and fraud and breach of fiduciary duty claims.

In 2013, Mark was selected for the second time for a California Lawyer “Attorney of the Year” award for his pro bono representation of a group of parents and the national education movement, when a California court became the first in the U.S. to verify a “parent trigger” petition to authorize parents to take control of an underperforming school in Southern California. Mark also received a California Lawyer “Attorney of the Year” award in 2000 for his successful defense of Los Alamos Nuclear Scientist Wen Ho Lee against espionage charges.
