When Silverman Law Office, PLLC and Josephson Law Firm joined together a year and a half ago, we knew we were gaining more than an office in Big Timber. We were gaining Mark Josephson, a well-respected attorney whose influence would soon be felt across our entire firm.
Mark has practiced law since 1988, carrying forward the legacy his father, Dick, built over 60 years serving Sweet Grass County and central Montana. But since joining Silverman Law Office, Mark’s impact has reached far beyond Big Timber. He has become a trusted mentor to attorneys in Helena, Bozeman, Butte, and Billings alike, generous with his time and his decades of hard-won insight into estate planning, real property law, and business succession.
Mark’s peers have recognized that expertise for years. Since 2010, he has been selected for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America, and he was named 2026 “Lawyer of the Year” for real estate law in the Billings area, an honor he also received in 2022. It is exactly the kind of experience and judgment he now shares generously with the attorneys around him.
Ask any attorney at our firm who has worked with Mark, and they will tell you the same thing: he is never too busy to talk through a hard case, explain the reasoning behind a strategy, or offer perspective earned from more than three decades in practice. It is the kind of quiet, steady mentorship that has shaped how our attorneys think and practice law, from Butte to Bozeman and every office in between.
In Billings, that mentorship has taken on a particularly meaningful form. Attorneys Morgan Tuss and Ben D’Alton, both fifth generation Montanans with deep roots in this state, have worked closely alongside Mark on matters throughout central Montana, including many of the clients Mark and his father built relationships with over the decades. Mark trusts them completely, and given how carefully he has guarded those relationships over his career, that trust says a lot.
Morgan, Ben, and the other attorneys Mark has guided across our firm are carrying his legacy forward, each in their own office and their own way. They are doing it with the same integrity, care, and Montana work ethic that has defined Mark’s career from the start, and that continues to guide his clients today.
A Butte, MT law firm is strengthened by experienced attorneys who share their knowledge across generations, helping ensure that clients continue to receive the same thoughtful guidance, trusted counsel, and commitment to excellence that have defined the firm’s practice for decades. We are proud to have Mark as part of our team, and equally proud of the attorneys he continues to shape across the state.
