This guy is a star lawyer you would see in a movie ......

Except he actually cares about his clients on a personal level. You know this is true when the courthouse administrators tell you. I had a private conversation with one of the SCRAM ladies who has dealt with countless attorneys, and she said he was the only one that actually genuinely cared about t...he client. I am a very analytical person and was curious so I was inquisitive and I eventually got it out of them. These people don't have a dog in the fight and would obviously know better than anyone. And of course, they all said he is easily the best. He sincerely cared about my situation, and he even inquired about my father who had been in the hospital and said he would pray for him. The guy actually cares and is a great person - totally what you would not expect out of a lawyer. As for his performance: Incredible. I was just in awe of how he interacted with others. He has a natural ability like I've never seen before. Marcos is talented enough to do anything. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in high-level politics one day. He uses any available resource in any given moment to his advantage. He got me a damn good deal considering the facts of my case. I had always thought first time offenders always got a plea deal, but that is no longer true. My only regret was not contacting him directly to discuss my case throughout the process on where I stood, what I needed to do, etc. I didn't really know what was going on in the middle, but that was my fault for not contacting him directly. I would have saved myself some worry and been reassured. Towards the ends when I finally did, he was very prompt in getting back to me. He would always respond that very day, even late in the evenings. He always made time, and he never bullshitted. You would be a fool to not hire Marcos. These rave reviews on this site are further proof. If you ever find yourself in a rough legal situation, hire him. I am a very skeptical person, not optimistic, and I typically have little faith in people and things, but I certainly endorse Mr. Garza.

Worth every penny spent on my defense!

Not only a great lawyer, but an even better person. I'm thankful to have had him represnt me for my DUI charge. My case was kind of strange to begin with. I was stopped by THP for wearing an "illegal" motorcycle helmet, then it evolved into the DUI charge. I had a few beers with 2 friends at a bike... event in Maryville. As we were riding home, two THP troopers stopped two of us and I got the charge. I blew a 0.08 and spent some time in the Loudon Co. jail. I contacted Marcos and he took care of everything from then on. Class act and well respected by troopers as well as the DA and judge. He was worth every penny I had to spend to clear my good name and keep me in good standing at work as well as my record. My charge was reduced from DUI to reckless driving, I paid a fine and I was required to attend a DUI class and a MADD victims impact panel. Those classes will open your eyes! Very hard hitting and powerful. He is a straight shooter and he is very, very good at what he does. If you find yourself in trouble after making a bad choice, contact Marcos!

Professional and Highly Recommended

My husband and I were extremely pleased with the hard work,dedication, and time devoted to my slip and fall case. Mr. Garza and the employees of Garza Law Firm were always informative, polite, and professional. Not only did Garza Law Firm keep us informed but invited us to call and inquire about case... updates or any questions about our case. I would recommend Garza Law Firm for any case requiring legal action.

Worth his weight in gold...

Marco's is a great lawyer, and he gives you everything that you pay for. His staff is very attentive and it almost seems like you are his only client at times. Mr. Garza used his knowledge and relationships to get me a great deal, one in which I got to keep a DUI off my record and keep my license. ... He left all the decisions up to me, but provided professional opinions on what would be best. He would be my first call if I ever need legal representation again.

legal excellence

Marcos far exceeded all my expectations and delivered a result far above what I even dreamed possible!! Professional, prepared, and always available to answer any question I had. He and his staff are the very definition of excellence and professionalism. Also his investigative team is unmatched an...d exceptional, they pointed out all lapses in the states case and were extremely patient breaking everything down for me so it was easy for me to understand. Without a doubt Marcos Garza is the best, most knowledgeable attorney I have ever come across and would definitely recommend him to all of my friends!!!!
