About Mark
Mark Laverdiere educated in Maine. He attended the University of Maine School of Law starting in 2009 and earned his J.D. in 2012. The court and the law school corridors shaped his early strategy to practice.
After graduation he served as a judicial regulation clerk to the Maine Superior Court in 2012. That year inside the courthouse gave him a near view of trial process, evidentiary rulings and the pacing of contested matters. He later moved into private practice and into roles that placed him in local bar organizations and professional packages.
Laverdiere is active in numerous legal associations. He has been a member of the Maine Bar Association since 2011 and joined the John Waldo Ballou Inn of Court in 2012. He holds membership within the Penobscot County Bar Association and the Maine Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, both since 2014. He also served in an ex officio capacity with the Gignoux Inn of Court from 2011 to 2012. In 2015 he was indexed among Super Lawyers’ New England Rising Stars, an association that appears on his professional document.
His background displays a continuous presence in Maine’s legal network. The clerkship gave him procedural perception. Work in county and state associations broadened his connections. The Inn of Court memberships factor to a curiosity in mentor-and-peer discussion about trial craft and ethics.
He is presently associated with the company Rudman Winchell. At the company he has taken on matters that align with felony protection practice, drawing on trial experience and the community he has built through local bar exercise. Colleagues describe him as one who prepares instances for trial and engages within the motions and negotiations that frequently precede them.
Laverdiere balances case work with continuing involvement in professional groups. He stays primarily based in Maine and maintains an active presence in county and statewide legal circles. He practices criminal defense and associated things.
