As a criminal defense lawyer, Attorney Mark Hinrichs represents and protects individuals facing serious consequences in the criminal justice system. Mark is privileged and honored to stand with the individual citizen to “level the playing field" against the Commonwealth - an adversary with vast resources and advantages. Every case is important and gets nothing less than a 100% effort and focus in order to get the best result possible for each client.


In 2000, Mark graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Miami. Following graduation from college, he secured employment as a paralegal working alongside Roy Black, Esquire, and other attorneys at Black, Srebnick, Kornspan, and Sumpf, P.A., one of the best, highly-respected criminal defense firms in the United States. In 2007, Mark graduated from Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad Law Center, in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and subsequently passed the Pennsylvania and New Jersey bar examinations that same year.


Since 2008, Mark has dedicated his career to becoming an expert criminal defense lawyer. Over the past ten years, he has trained with some of the most successful, highly respected criminal defense attorneys in Philadelphia, Miami, and Newark, New Jersey. Mark learned the value of relentless preparation, continued commitment to expanding his knowledge and skill, integrity for the profession, and unwavering perseverance to win– key ingredients for the most successful criminal attorneys. He approaches every case with the client’s needs and concerns as a top priority. Unless instructed otherwise by the client, each case will be investigated and prepared with the attitude that the case will be resolved successfully at trial rather than to immediately recommend the client plead guilty. Mark conducts a full, exhaustive investigation of the allegations in order to provide the client with all available options supported by sound, reliable legal advice. Attorney Hinrichs handles each case personally and does not send unknown associates to court in his place. If you hire Mark, you get Mark.


Upon relocating to the Lehigh Valley, Attorney Mark Hinrichs brings approximately 11 years of Philadelphia criminal defense trial experience to the area, and will continue the same aggressive, professional, and thorough legal representation to his cases throughout Central and Eastern Pennsylvania.


Attorney Mark Hinrichs and his wife reside in the Lehigh Valley and are avid fans of the Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies and the Miami Hurricanes.

Criminal defense case WON
My husband skipped out on parole/probation we moved to another state to start our life fresh. We have been doing so good. 8 years later a warrent showed up. My husband was extremely nervous and didn't want to go to jail after all these years. I called mark and he assured us we will be ok. Mark did a top notch job he got the judge to dismiss his case ! We couldn't have asked for a better lawyer! He worked hard for us and gave us a fair rate. I would refer him to anyone I know ! Thank you for allowing us to continue being great ! Your the best !

Attorney with Integrity
Mark Hinrichs, Esq. is a man of true integrity. He does not play games; he does not delay in his response and he moves quickly in defending his clients. He gives personal attention to every detail of your case. He does not delay in taking action for your defense. On the same day that we contacted his office, Mark had us come into his office and on the same day he began to work on our defense. This is the kind of attorney everyone needs. Mark is a man who cares about his clients and puts himself in the shoes of the family needing help as if it was his own family. He provides detailed information in order for his client to fully understand the legal situation that they have put themselves into. His skillful knowledge of the legal system and his understanding of the law enables him to defend his client with the highest qualifications needed for a successful defense. Mark is always available to speak with his clients and if he is in court when you phone, he will return your call on that same day. There is no delay with Mark Hinrich. I found Mark Hinrich to be knowledgeable and skillful in the law. I also found him to not sit in his position as just an attorney doing a job, Mark sits in his position as an attorney of law who understands the burdens of a mother or father, and a wife or husband whose family member gets in trouble, breaks the law and needs help saving their future. He is a man of kindness and understanding but most of all Mark is an honest person. When he takes on a client, he is not only their attorney but he is also their friend. I never met an attorney who is so honest in his dealings with the public. He is truly a man to be commended for his accomplishments for fulfilling the oath to defend the people. He’s not just an attorney for the people, He’s not just a defender of the people, Mark Hinrich is a friend to his clients and provides individual attention and care to each client personally. This is the man you want to assist you in any of your legal situations. I cannot say enough about him and I highly recommend Mark Hinrich as your attorney. He is a man that you can believe in and put your trust in. His office is free of confusion and error. His office staff is professional, knowledgeable and skillful in providing you with the information that you may need during this trying time of your defense. Mark Hinrich and his staff can be trusted with your life affairs. I highly recommend Mark Hinrich to anyone needing legal assistance.

Excellent lawyer
We would like to say a HUGE thank you to Mark. We hired Mark to represent our son, who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. We live in NY and had no idea how to find a PA attorney. My husband called Mack Law Office, that he randomly found online and it was the best decision that we ever made. Mark guided us throught the whole process. He was extremely knowledgeable, took time to study the case and provided excellent representation to our son during trial. With Mark's help our case was dismissed.

First I'd like to say to search for but don't pass up an opportunity to Hire Mark and his Firm, Young and Ambitious with a lot of drive is what you will get when You Hire Mark. I felt extremally good after meeting with Mark after having paid $$$ to another firm that claims to be the BEST. I hired Mark based off representation he had given me while I was with this other firm, after the other firm made promises that they didn't hold up to and only represented me to get two warrants lifted while under their representation. ( Yes! I received two warrants while under representation for failure to appear! ??) Mark had to have one of these lifted while at this Firm who poorly handled my case - He himself was beyond belief that clients were being poorly represented/ cases not handled properly. Mark had left this Firm and My wife set out on a google search to find him, and she did. We called Mark after the 2nd warrant for a no show, thanks to the other firm ,explained the drama and Mark jumped right in, filed the paperwork and off to court we went the following week. Mark was Professional and took care of the warrant, the misunderstandings, and got me in the Program immediately. I have since completed this program . Mark also followed up with the steps and progress along the way . Mark is Superlative, Knowledgeable, and Good at getting things done the way he says he will . I am very happy with his representation and would recommend his Firm to handle your case.

MH Criminal Defense
After getting into a bar brawl one night, a week later I found out that I was being charged with felony aggravated assault. I needed help and made the first call to MH Criminal Defense. This was the only call I needed to make. Mark understood the situation and gave me a fair price, then went to work immediately. The day of the preliminary hearing I was nervous, but Mark's confidence in the court room put me at ease. He made the opposing attorney look incompetent and I knew victory was ours as the judge dismissed the felony assault charge. Mark's professionalism carried us through the remaining process and delivered a good result for me.

Highly recommend
If you want an attorney who is going to go to bat and secure the best possible outcome for his clients, Attorney Hinrich’s is your guy. He spends time to understand your case/situation and uses his vast legal experience to navigate the legal system while proving a high-level of service and counsel. He and Tiffany are both very responsive, well-organized, and made the overall experience far less stressful than it otherwise would have been. I highly recommend to anyone needing an excellent attorney.

2 cases WON
Mark Hinirchs has represented me both of the times I was criminally charged, including my first. I can't put into words how nervous I was about everything, I knew I needed help but I didn't know where to turn and didn't want to make the wrong decision. Mark is an incredible lawyer and I'm so thankful to him for being able to get me out of ALL of my charges in 2 separate counties. No probation, no community service, no jail time, just fines. Each and every time I've worked with him he has given me the exact outcome I was hoping for. He takes great care of all of his clients and always got back to me in a very short amount of time. Mark truly cares about people and I'm incredibly fortunate to have had him as my lawyer. I will never go to anyone else. He made me feel very at ease throughout the entire process and has extremely fair rates. If you're looking for a criminal defense lawyer please don't pass up the chance to hire Mark, he goes above and beyond every single time!!

Amazing attorney for top tier felony cases
He got my felony case dropped at the preliminary hearing. I do not how he did it. I was freaking out for months until Mark came in and took care of it. I left with no record and case over!!!

Great Attorney!
I was staring at a dramatic change in my life due to a fatal car accident. Though I had no priors, the prosecution initially insisted on me serving time. I had been referred to mark from someone in Nashville- yes, Nashville, TN. Even though Mark’s office was a couple hours or more away from the county where I was being tried, he took my case. Not only being very knowledgeable professionals, Mark and Tiffany were very understanding of my fears and apprehension, and assured both me and my wife that he would get things worked out for me and not to worry. He is an understanding lawyer that isn’t afraid to go to the mat for you. When it was all over, the outcome was even better than we were initially fighting for. GREAT ATTORNEY. Thank you Mark and Tiffany. -Jim A.
