One of the nation’s largest plaintiffs’ litigation firms, Motley Rice LLC, has entered into a consulting agreement with D.C. attorney Markus Green of MG Law & Consulting based in Northwest.

Green will collaborate with Motley Rice regarding its representation of state attorneys general, other governmental agencies and municipalities seeking to protect their residents, patients, consumers, and public funds. Leveraging his extensive global experience, Green will also work with Motley Rice’s human rights and abuse attorneys.

“Markus understands the special responsibilities and requirements needed to assist government enforcers in complex, lengthy litigations. His values are aligned with Motley Rice’s mission to support our clients’ cases that not only pursue recoveries and remediations but also advance the law, make markets fairer and help save lives,” said Motley Rice member Linda Singer, who served as attorney general of the District from January 2, 2007 to January 5, 2008.

Green explained that this new opportunity affords him the opportunity to continue his mission of helping others.

“Consulting with Motley Rice allows me to continue to do work that truly matters, helping the most vulnerable members in our society,” said Green, a former leading attorney with pharmaceutical giant Pfizer and the treasurer of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s Board of Directors. “This strategic arrangement creates an opportunity for me to fully marshal my experiences, knowledge and networks while firmly dwelling at the intersection of passion and purpose.” 

He expressed his excitement in beginning this venture with the firm.

“Motley Rice has a proven track record representing those harmed and consistently takes on big issues for marginalized populations,” Green continued. “The opportunity to work alongside another fierce advocate for justice is simply exhilarating.”
