Magical Astounding Remarkable Knowledgeable :- MARK

Mark is THE one , you want to hire when your heart rate is beyond explanation and the stress test is inevitable to prove you should be in an emergency !!! I hired him for DWI . In the trial he was just so confident ! He made sure that the video recording and and all other pertinent legal aspects wer...e so well prepared . He cross questioned the police officer in such a professional way that I am sure the officer is not going to stop anybody for a long long time ! Mark is an extremely knowledgeable attorney who quoted the previous judgements in similar cases as of mine . It took him less than two minutes to get the complete case thrown out !!! I EARNESTLY AND MOST SINCERELY SUGGEST THAT IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ATTORNEY WHO WOULD ACTUALLY FIGHT FOR YOU , THEN DEFINITELY MARK ROMAN DYCIO IS THE ONLY ONE !!

Well rounded attorney!

Mr. Dycio is an outstanding lawyer. He helped me prepare for my court date for reckless driving, and did a great job getting the charges reduced (especially for what seemed to be a difficult case). Mr. Dycio knew exactly what to do, who to talk to, and how to keep me calm. After only a few hours, I w...as walking out of the courthouse without a misdemeanor conviction, all thanks to Mr. Dycio. I cannot recommend him enough.

DWI (2nd Offense) / Refusal (2nd Offense Defense

Mark is a true professional and expert. Mark defended me on a case within the last week which I was charged for a DWI (2nd Offense) as well as a Refusal (2nd Offense). Mark did a good job of articulating to me the process and challenges ahead. As I'm not a lawyer I certainly had the comfort and c...onfidence to sit back and let Mark work his magic. Through patience Mark was able to get my DWI (2nd offense) down to a DWI (1st offense) and the Refusal (2nd Offense) to a Refusal (1st Offense). As I continued to trust in Mark he recommended we take the charges to trial. During trial Mark was amazing. Challenging and pinpointing the incorrect procedures of the Arresting Officer. At the end of the day... Mark Dycio was able to have the DWI completely dismissed while only currently accepting a Refusal (which is civil and not criminal). NO jail time, no fine, no court costs. Afterward Mark was very confident that we could win an appeal against the Refusal. I trust Mark and truly respect this man for his legal knowledge and abilities. I will continue to fight on with Mark as we appeal my Refusal and I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND MARK to anyone that needs legal representation. IF you want the BEST.... Mark is clearly the BEST!!!

Posted by Amir | September 09, 2013 | DUI & DWI

Best lawyer ever... point blank period!

Mr Dycio has helped me on multiple cases in the past the most recent being a DWI. From the day I called him to help me on my case until the actual court day he made sure I felt that there was nothing for me to worry about. Very knowledgable and confident in what he does he is also one of the few gre...at people that I can trust. I highly recommend that if need to someone by your side in a situation like this then call Mr Dycio ... He gets things done!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I am a lawyer with the same practice as Mark. I have observed him in action, in and out of the courtroom, and i am awed by his overall skills. In the courtroom there is none better. Mark knows the law and will never back down to a Judge or a prosecutor in the zealous representation of his clients. When there are legal problems, in my practice, I turn to Mark Dycio. Mark resolves them without hesitation. If I was personally in need of a lawyer I would hire Mark Dycio. He is a lawyer's lawyer, and sometimes a magician!!!"

"I've known Mark professionally for more than 15 years. I can say that he is one of the finest defense attorneys I know. He will fight for you in situations where many others will cave. He is creative with new defenses and uses them to obtain good results. I frequently consult him for a second opinion."

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 19

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mark is a highly accomplished and seasoned criminal defense and commercial lawyer. A skillful negotiator and masterful litigator, he comes ready to fight. Mark never shirks from the opportunity to take a case to trial. The demeanor, confidence, and wit he exhibits in the courtroom are impressive. Thinking on his feet is second nature and his instincts are right on. He is adept at challenging evidence and witness, and developing new arguments. It is one thing to win a case with good facts, but "making something out of nothing" in a case with facts not so favorable to your client requires a special set of skills and talent."
