Local Legal Solutions from the Comox Valley

I met with Mark for a personal injury claim and instantly felt understood and supported. His knowledge, attentiveness, and guidance shined through until the end of the process. Mark has built a reliable, compassionate, and punctual team that provided the support I needed to get to my best outcome. I would recommend Tinmouth Law to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation and wants to know their best interest is at heart.

Personal Bio

I was called to the bar in 2008 in Nova Scotia.  Since that time, my approach to the law has evolved as I continue to find better and more efficient ways to help people find solutions to their legal problems.  

I first practiced as a solicitor for the City of Halifax before obtaining a masters degree in maritime law.  Upon returning to Canada in 2010 I started practicing in Vancouver.  In 2013 my wife and I moved with our first child to the Comox Valley.  We were soon joined by our second child and a few pets.  Not long after we arrived I realized the Comox Valley was the home that I had always been looking for. 

The Valley is filled with practical and unique people.  For the past eight years, I have been helping Valley residents find solutions to their legal problems that are as unique as they are.

I have practiced as a city solicitor, a corporate lawyer, a maritime lawyer, an ICBC defence lawyer, and most recently as a personal injury lawyer.  I have also worked as a farmhand, a camp counsellor, a youth educator, a retail salesperson, and a door-to-door salesperson.  I apply my real world experience and my legal expertise to my clients’ legal problems in order to provide legal solutions for real world problems.  

When I am not working for my clients, I’m out trying to take advantage of all the great things that the Comox Valley has to offer.  In winter we are skiing as a family.  My wife and I have also taken up mountain biking and are looking forward to sharing the local trails with our children.
