About Mark M.
Mark M. Hrenya earned his law degree from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law in 1995 after completing a B.B.A. at Kent State University in 1973. He pursued legal training later in life, returning to school two decades after his undergraduate degree. The timeline shaped a pragmatic approach to practice and study that shows in his professional choices.
He is admitted to practice in Colorado. He served as a partner at Cooley Godward Kronish LLP, taking on responsibilities that fall to senior lawyers at large firms. His work there involved managing client relationships, supervising teams, and handling complex matters that required coordination across practice groups and offices.
Colleagues describe him as steady and thorough. He has built a practice around careful analysis and practical solutions. Over the years he handled matters that required negotiation, drafting and strategic planning. Those tasks often demanded detailed document work and attention to process, as well as the ability to explain legal options to clients in clear terms.
Hrenya’s legal career stretches back to the mid-1990s and has unfolded through a period of change in the profession. He has navigated shifts in firm structures, client expectations and regulatory frameworks. That experience has informed how he organizes matter teams and communicates with clients. It has also influenced how he approaches risk management and the allocation of responsibilities within a practice.
He continues to practice law in Colorado and maintains an active role in private practice. His current practice focuses on advising clients in private practice in Colorado.
