When Michigan turns to experts on justice and civil rights, the media calls Jon Marko. Recently, Jon appeared on FOX 2 Detroit with Charlie Langton to discuss First Amendment issues and freedom of speech—a cornerstone of American democracy and one of the core values Jon fights for in the courtroom every day.
This appearance wasn’t just about law—it was about leadership. Jon was invited as a legal expert, representing not only Marko Law, but also Michigan’s trial lawyers who stand on the front lines of defending constitutional rights.
Freedom of speech is one of the most powerful protections we have as citizens. It allows people to challenge government overreach, demand accountability, and share their stories without fear of retaliation. But in practice, those rights are often under attack—whether it’s employees punished for speaking up, whistleblowers silenced, or communities facing censorship.
Jon’s discussion on FOX 2 highlighted the real-life impact of First Amendment protections and how they continue to shape justice here in Michigan.
“The First Amendment isn’t just words on paper—it’s the lifeline of democracy. Without it, the truth gets buried, and people get silenced.” – Jon Marko
This media spotlight comes on the heels of Marko Law’s record-breaking $76.7 million Kroger verdict, the $6 million pre-suit sexual abuse settlement, and countless other victories for everyday people wronged by corporations, institutions, and even government entities.
Jon isn’t just a lawyer—he’s a trial advocate who thrives in the courtroom and in the newsroom. From landmark verdicts to civil rights commentary on FOX 2, he continues to push the fight for justice into the public conversation.
