Vermont Lawyers
Mark Loevy-Reyes (then known as Mark Reyes) graduated from Cornell Law School in 1992. Since that time, Mark has worked in a variety of jurisdictions and has experience in diverse practice areas.
Immediately after law school, Mark worked for three years in a civil legal services program providing free legal help to low income clients. That work included family, disability, civil rights, and education law in downstate Illinois and suburban Chicago.
For the next seven years, Mark worked for the City of Chicago's Department of Law. That work included prosecuting municipal code violations in misdemeanor court and then prosecuting building code enforcement cases. For the last four years with the City, Mark's practice involved labor and employment discrimination law.
From 2002 until 2004, Mark practiced disability rights law in southern and central Vermont. His practice included special education, disability discrimination, employment discrimination, and probate cases.
In 2004, Mark began his practice at the Chicago civil rights law firm of Loevy & Loevy, where he still handles cases. His work there involves representing people whose civil rights have been violated due to police or law enforcement misconduct or by any other government entity, including schools.
Mark has represented clients in state and federal trial and appellate courts. He has argued cases before the United States Court of Appeals and the Vermont Supreme Court. Mark has always strived to serve individual clients who need help navigating the legal system to protect their rights. He returned to Vermont from Chicago so that he can practice law and restore balance to his life after several years of hectic living in Chicago.
