About Marc
Marc Berkemeier built his academic foundation in the Midwest. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Indiana University–Bloomington. He continued his studies at George Washington University and spent a summer at the University of Oxford, where he completed a Certificate of Study in the Summer Programme in International Law.
Admitted to practice in both California and New York, Berkemeier works across two major U.S. jurisdictions. He serves as a partner at Raines Feldman LLP. In that role he counsels clients on matters that raise issues in either state. He brings an understanding of the procedural and substantive differences that can shape strategy when a matter crosses state lines.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in the way he approaches casework. He handles client communications, prepares filings, and participates in hearings and negotiations. His Oxford summer study in international law adds a comparative perspective to his domestic practice. That background can be useful when cases touch on cross-border questions or when clients need a lawyer who is comfortable discussing complex legal frameworks.
At Raines Feldman LLP Berkemeier works with clients on disputes and transactional matters that unfold under California and New York law. He takes on both courtroom tasks and document-heavy work. He also contributes to firm planning and case management as a partner. He is an active member of professional networks and has maintained an association since 2001.
Berkemeier’s career path reflects steady advancement through academic preparation and then practice in two state systems. He continues to practice at Raines Feldman LLP, handling matters that implicate California and New York law and offering counsel to clients with needs in those jurisdictions.
