Great Lawyer To Have In Your Corner

Mark was recommended to me by another defense attorney that was unable to handle my case. He said he trusted him and I'm so grateful for this recommendation. Mark has experience on both sides of the court, defense and prosecution. He actually worked under my judge which was tremendously lucky. Mark w...as always on time, responded to questions promptly, and explained all aspects of the case throughly and clearly. He was able to get my OVI charge reduced to reckless op, full driving privileges without an interlock, no jail time, and significantly less probation time than I was expecting. All in all, highly recommend. Thanks again, Mark!

Phenomenal attorney

I got an OVI in Oct. 2016 and did not realize that when my OVI was settled, the driving privileges I had until that point had to be re-approved (in other words, my driving privileges were revoked after the OVI was settled until the judge approved new driving privileges.) I accidentally backed into an...other car while my driving privileges were revoked, so I was charged with Driving under OVI Suspension, Improper Backing, and Leaving the Scene. Mark got the prosecutor to drop everything except Leaving the Scene, which means that I had no additional penalties except court costs. He was incredibly responsive, responding to my many questions within a couple hours, and very honest about the charges and penalties that I was facing. Also, he's not too hard to look at. ;) I highly recommend him to anyone facing a scary situation.

Don't waste your money or freedom

I would not recommend this lawyer for anything. I paid him a 1000.00 and all he did was show up at court. He has no ideal what he is doing. if you have not committed a crime he will use the scare tactic to convince you to plea to a lesser charge. All he truly did was filed that he was the lawyer and... then showed up to court. The plea he convinced his client to plea to was the same of what a public defender would have done. So don't waste your money. I should of figured it out when he did not want to see his client before court.

Debra, Thanks for for your comments. If you recall you were not event the client. Your son, was facing a domestic violence charge which is a misdemeanor of the 1st degree. It is punishable by up to 6 months in jail, Further, upon conviction it can be used to enhance a subsequent domestic violence charge to a felony. Finally, it is a crime of violence, it is not expungeable and will prohibit him from owning a firearm. Ultimately, the charge was reduced to disorderly conduct which is a misdemeanor of the 4th degree, is eligible to be expunged and is not a crime of violence. The sentence of the court included no jail time and a minimal fine, anger management class due to your son's alleged actions and a drug assessment as the allegations that drugs were involved. The discovery was reviewed with your son and all his questions were answered. He made a decision knowingly, intelligently and of his own free will to enter into the plea offer from the State of Ohio. Had you come to court to support your son, I could have reviewed everything with you provided that your son would allow it. Then you could have an informed understanding of the occurrences prior to offering your review from a removed third party position. I wish you the best in the future. Thank you. Mark Wieczorek

Mark was an awesome lawyer!!!!!

Mark was very professional, responsive, and understanding. He helped me both emotionally and legally with my OVI charge. As a medical sales professional, I could not afford to have an OVI offense and Mark did everything he said he would do for me. I would highly recommend him to friends or fam...ily if needed in the future.

Very pleased with results

Mark was extremely professional and very well informed. He didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear, but rather what I needed to hear from my lawyer. My options were very clearly explained and laid out for me in a manner that allowed me to proceed with full knowledge of my potential consquences ...and next steps. Perhaps the thing that impressed me the most about Mark was his response time to my phone calls. Anytime I called, I received a phone call back within an hour, which is a wonderful trait in a lawyer when you are stressed out abou the situation you may find yourself in. Finally, Mark delivered results. I hired him to represent when I received a DUI charge and we were able to get the charges reduced significantly. I am very thankful to Mark for all he did to help represent and am an adamant advocate of the quality representation he can provide to anyone dealing with a similar situation.
