Mark Mckinzie's Summary

From his law office in Indianapolis, attorney Mark McKinzie utilizes his 42 years of experience in the areas of: • business & corporate law; • business contract drafting and negotiating; • business entity selection; • contract disputes; • noncompetition agreements; • construction litigation; • dispute resolution; and • insurance regulatory and coverage issues to provide counsel to and advocacy on behalf of his clients. Mark understands the importance of cost effective representation of his clients’ interests. He identifies key issues and approaches resolving them with a view toward avoiding litigation which often can be more costly and time-consuming for the litigants than initially anticipated. Where reasonable resolution cannot be obtained, Mark aggressively protects and promotes his clients’ interests and goals. In pursuing a counterclaim for a business owner against a major insurance company in Hamilton County, Indiana, Mark and his co-counsel secured the largest jury verdict for defamation against an American corporation in United States history. Mark joined Riley Bennett Egloff LLP as a Partner over 18 years ago, after a distinguished career in corporate insurance law, rising to be Senior VP, General Counsel, and Secretary for the Meridian Insurance Companies and serving in that position prior to the company’s sale and merger with State Auto Insurance Company of Columbus Ohio. Mark’s most recent focus includes using his experience and perspective in assisting litigants on both sides of disputes to mediate their differences, a process which is mandated in most Indiana state courts. With his business and legal background and extensive and varied experience, having represented plaintiffs and defendants in a wide range of practice areas, Mark possesses and consistently demonstrates keen insight and pragmatic, resourceful solutions beneficial to the parties.
