Notable Victories & Advocacy
Civil Rights: The "Sunday" Verdict ($21.5 Million) In a case that made international headlines (Marie Jean Pierre v. Park Hotels), Marc fought
for a 60‑year‑old dishwasher fired for refusing to work on Sundays due to her faith. He secured a historic $21.5 million jury verdict against a major hotel corporation, defending the religious rights of the working class.
Community Defense: Saving First Born Baptist Church When the First Born Baptist Church of North Miami Beach faced a hostile takeover, Marc worked pro bono for three years to save it. Driven by faith, he defeated a difficult legal challenge to preserve the spiritual home for hundreds of families who would have otherwise been left on the street.
Early High‑Stakes Defense (Suge Knight) Years ago, Marc honed his skills in crisis management as lead counsel for rap mogul Suge
Knight during a period of intense global scrutiny. He represented Knight in a high‑profile negligent security lawsuit against Kanye
West (as reported by NBC Miami) and successfully managed his defense in criminal investigations. This era taught Marc how to navigate
the media and protect clients under extreme pressure‑experience he now applies to fighting for the vulnerable.
Public Safety: The School Bus Tragedy ($13.92 Million) Marc secured nearly $14 million for victims of a catastrophic bus accident caused by improper maintenance (wrong tires), holding transportation providers accountable for the safety of our children.
Justice for P.J. Janvier ($2 Million Settlement) Representing the family of a beloved community leader who drowned at a Miami Beach city pool, Marc successfully took on the city administration, securing a $2 million settlement that required a special bill from the Florida Legislature.
Human Rights: The Marie Blaise Case Marc continues to be a voice for the voiceless, recently representing the family of Marie Blaise, a Haitian grandmother who tragically died in immigration custody. He fights tirelessly for government transparency and dignity for every human life.
