Mark Harrison founded e-Litigate Solicitors in 2005, and is now Managing Partner of FlexLaw. Mark is a highly experienced civil court lawyer, and deals with all types of civil law disputes.

He also frequently deals with personal injury and debt recovery cases.

Prior to starting FlexLaw, Mark practised as a civil court lawyer for fifteen years with heavyweight, Edinburgh practices. Latterly working in commercial and personal injury litigation, his interest in IT led him to decide to fulfil his long-held ambition of starting his own, high-tech law firm.

Mark is well known amongst clients and colleagues for his practical, problem-solving approach to litigation. He is a highly skilled negotiator, and always takes a pride in achieving the best possible result for his clients.

In his spare time, Mark likes to indulge his passion for the outdoors, and he can sometimes be found munro-bagging, mountain biking, and even paragliding!
