Marlene Marker

Founder & CEO at The Marker Group

As a recently divorced mother of three in the 1970s, Marlene Marker was once no one’s idea of a likely entrepreneur. She dreamed, however, of taking control of her own destiny and starting her own company someday. Thanks to her natural tenacity and determination to provide a better life for her children, her dream became reality when Marlene started her own record retrieval company in 1977. Marlene’s goal was to provide her clients with exemplary service delivered with reliable integrity and a personal touch. As the business grew, so did Marlene’s reputation for honesty, persistence, and entrepreneurship.

After an ownership change in 1985, the Marker Group was born. Thanks to Marlene’s natural leadership abilities and determination to provide the best quality service ever in the litigation support industry, the Marker Group grew quickly, and by 1996, the company expanded its services nationwide. As an industry leader, Marlene became a role model and an icon within the litigation support industry. Her proudest achievements include establishing decade-long business relationships with some of the largest U.S. firms; developing procedures, processes, and technology that became industry standards for handling large, multi-state, and federal record collection and medical review work; and creating a company culture grounded in excellence and integrity. Today, Marlene still provides invaluable guidance to the company she founded as she helps to lead the business into the 21st Century.

Marlene’s children have all been involved in the business over the years and are now continuing the Marker legacy with her guidance. She loves traveling and is an avid supporter of the arts. She also enjoys supporting organizations that protect abused women and children and feed and shelter the homeless.
