About Mr Mark P
Mr Mark P Reina built a legal career from steady roots in Michigan. He began his studies at Wayne State University, where he completed undergraduate work in history, computer science and business. He later attended Wayne State University Law School and earned his law degree.
He entered practice after law school and spent decades handling matters across state and federal courts. His admissions include the Michigan bar and the Federal Circuit, which has shaped how he approaches cases that touch on both state law and federal appellate procedure. He developed a practice aimed at practical problem-solving and courtroom readiness, often moving cases toward resolution while keeping an eye on potential appeals.
Reina's work has taken him into contested hearings and written motions as well as negotiations at the settlement table. He handles litigation tasks that require careful drafting and an attention to procedural detail. Colleagues and opposing counsel describe him as methodical in preparing filings and deliberate in courtroom presentations. He is the kind of lawyer who values clarity in legal writing and steadiness when a dispute intensifies.
Over the years he has worked on a range of civil matters. He brings experience in trial practice and appellate filings, and he has represented clients in matters that required both state-level litigation and briefs to federal appellate panels. The combination of trial and appellate experience informs how he frames arguments from the outset. He prepares cases with an eye toward preserving issues for appeal when necessary, and he structures trials in ways that make the record clear.
Outside the courtroom he has advised clients on strategies to reduce litigation risk. He has spent time counseling individuals and businesses about steps to take before disputes become expensive. His approach on advisories is straightforward: assess the legal exposure, outline options, and prioritize steps that protect the client’s position.
Reina continues to serve clients from offices in Waterford and Clarkston. He remains active in Michigan practice and appears in matters before the Federal Circuit when appeals require it. He maintains a practice that combines courtroom representation, appellate work and client counseling, focusing on practical outcomes for those he represents.
