He began his career doing primarily municipal and corporate law at Shifman and Carlson, P.C. where he served as Assistant City Attorney for Oak Park and Huntington Woods, Mich.

From 1988 to 2015, Marc worked at Portnoy & Roth, P.C., where he focused on all aspects of medical malpractice defense. There, he not only found his calling at the intersection of law and medicine, but valued mentorship from Founding Partner Bernard Portnoy and Managing Partner Robert Roth.
