Mark A. Bederow

I cannot express how comfortable Mark made my son and I feel after initially speaking with him. We had searched and interviewed several attorneys regarding my son’s unique situation. All the attorneys we interviewed said we didn’t have a strong appeal case and should be thankful my son only received... 3.5 year sentence. We knew the case the Queens DA built against my son was based on lies and deception but no one would listen to us, until we finally contacted Mark Bederow. Mark not only listened but believed us and immediately pointed out everything wrong with the prosecution’s case. He gave us hope and validated our concerns. We didn’t hesitate to hire him. Mark is fully dedicated, extremely passionate and knowledgeable about the law and its process. Mark kept us informed of developments and explained in detail what was happening in the case, what to expect and his strategy. He will leave no leaf upturned and will make sure you understand the process. I am forever grateful for his commitment and his passion for the truth and justice.

I came to him for help with a case I was arrested in June of this year. The case slow dragged and I was desperate for representation. Mark came on board and I disclosed the matters of the case where I informed him about some private matters about the arrest, he was informed about a reporter on the ca...se waiting until the case was Dismissed and Sealed First then the plan was to go forward to the media to disclose things. Once Mark “The Media Guy” came on board this case things shifted to the story of reporting thins to the media opposed to getting this criminal case dismissed and quite frankly I was disappointed and confused . We had multiple disagreements with this matter it led to me firing him officially 09/25 and I believe after that he purposely allowed the reporter to still report the case with knowingly false allegations against me to make the story big for his own publicity. The DA already agreed to open an investigation against the cop involved so I really saw no need to continue anything with the Media and just focus on the criminal matter to get this dismissed so I can move on. But you know some lawyers have their own intentions when they see a case they can benefit from publicity wise! Just beware of attorneys that focus more on the publicity rather than the matter at hand. I’m in a nightmare right now

First: Thank You Mark for all of your help! I recommend Mark without hesitation. Mark really understands criminal law, the system, and his clients' needs. Mark was attentive, thorough and really went above and beyond to solve my problem. I was extremely stressed out by my situation, compo...unded by the fact that I have never had anything similar happen and had no idea how to approach solving it. In short, my husband is a martial artist of several decades, which also plays a part in his career. Somehow, one of his tools ended up in my suitcase... which as you can imagine... was discovered during travel! It was a horrible experience - especially considering I was travelling to a very high-level corporate meeting! I had no idea how, when, who placed it there (could have been multiple friends or family at any number of locations)! Mark was very patient, walked me through the process, told me clearly what documentation and evidence was needed and absolutely solved my nightmare in less than 4 months! The impact of this would have had a devastating toll on my career. Thank you again, Mark!

My name is Oleg, and recently Mark Bederow have my case dismissed in one of the worst districts in New York city. Needless to say, that Mark handled the case professional and agressive manner. Prosecution thought that they had a slam dunk case, until Mark made his own investigation. I was very sat...isfied with Mark performance. No false alarms, or phony promises. Straight to the point. Mark is your guy if you in the jam. If you not guilty, you will stay not guilty.

I faced bogus criminal assault and harassment charges in Queens where the victim rightfully recanted. I contacted Mark from a referral while I was detained and he jumped into gear immediately and worked around the clock to get me released. Despite the recanted statement, the DAs office was still co...ming after me full force because of the unique facts involved (i.e. it was a domestic dispute). The DA pushed through several adjournments with an offer that would have left me with a criminal record. Mark held our position and went above and beyond to get the DA to ultimately dismiss my case. Mark handles major press cases and is a full-service attorney that is not only an expert in the courtroom, but also knows how to be an effective advocate outside of the courtroom. I have referred Mark to friends and colleagues and would recommend him to anyone facing even the most serious, complex charges.
