In 2016, Marcus accepted a position with the Florida Department of Transportation practicing eminent domain. Eminent domain proved to be an exciting challenge for Marcus. This inspired him to help educate landowners and business owners on the eminent domain process, which led him to joining the legal team at Perry & Young law firm. As an attorney representing small businesses, family businesses, and individual entities, Marcus educates clients throughout Northwest Florida on the justifications and processes for those whose property has been taken by the government. He ensures that clients receive full compensation for what has been taken from them. Marcus has handled hundreds of eminent domain cases over the course of his legal career. He is licensed in the state of Florida and primarily located at the Perry & Young office in Marianna and Tallahassee.
