Mark L. Alexander

Mark Alexander believes that his client’s best interests both emotional and financial are served by negotiating agreed orders when possible, minimizing the mudslinging common in contested hearings. He graduated with honors from Harvard College and attended the Backus School of Law of Case Western Reserve University, where he was a legal research, advocacy, and writing instructor for first-year law students. Licensed as an attorney since 1979 and admitted in five states, he has been practicing family law in the Puget Sound area since 1990. He has served as Managing Attorney for the Family Law Mentor Program of the King County Bar Association, as Chair of its Family Law Section, and as a member for over 15 years of its Local Rules committee.

Mark was elected in 2013 to the statewide Family Law Executive Committee of the Washington State Bar Association. In addition to volunteering at the Greenwood and Eastside legal clinics and the Volunteer Settlement Conference program, Mark has been a speaker on divorce and family law at local schools, at seminars for attorneys, and at the University of Washington’s business school.
