Mark Blane

Mark Carleton Blane was admitted to the State Bar of California on June 10, 1999, and holds an active license under bar number 201811 ^[1]. His State Bar record lists his office at The Law Offices of Mark C. Blane, A.P.C. on Camino Del Rio North in San Diego ^[1].

Blane represents people injured in car accidents, slips and falls, dog bites, and product defect cases, and he is a trial lawyer who will present a case to a jury when necessary. His firm, located in the Mission Valley area of central San Diego, handles auto, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian accidents, drunk driving crashes, dog bite injuries, catastrophic injuries, child injuries, and wrongful death claims throughout Southern California ^[2]. Reported case results include a $5,675,000 settlement in a fall case involving a poorly maintained ladder, a $1,925,000 trip and fall settlement, and several settlements of $1,000,000 in vehicle collision cases ^[2].

Blane earned his J.D. from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in 1998 and has been a member of the Consumer Attorneys of San Diego. His interest in injury law traces to the eighth grade, when a friend was seriously hurt in a pickup truck crash and never received the care he needed because of misinformation about his legal rights ^[2].

The firm emphasizes client education, publishing free books, videos, articles, and a legal library for injury victims, and offers Spanish-language resources for Spanish-speaking clients ^[2].
