Marcel Sergio Benavides

I hired Marcel in 2022 to defend my husband. A friend referred me to a few lawyers and I chose Marcel because of his experience in criminal and civil defense, especially with the severity of the charges. I am so grateful that I called him. Immediately I knew i made the right choice. He made me feel c...almer than I had been in days. He explained the process to me, answered all my questions (there were a lot), explained how we were to proceed, and assured us that he was working hard to dismiss as many of the five very serious charges as possible. My husband was looking at possible jail time and losing his job. 2 of the 3 counts (the 2 felonies) were dismissed, and the 3rd count will be dismissed after his probation period ends. We couldn’t be more grateful for everything Marcel did, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a defense attorney, as he will make sure you get the best possible outcome.

Marcel Benavides was by far the best choice for representation in the era of “believe all women,” where the deck was stacked against my son in a bogus sexual assault case. In my initial phone conversation, Marcel made me feel as if I were speaking with another father not just a lawyer. I had alre...ady interviewed other lawyers in the area and each of them gave me the impression they were only taking the case for the money. I could tell that Marcel truly cared about my son and would work relentlessly to prove his innocence. Marcel was thorough in his research of the plaintiff’s false claims, wise in his counsel, attentive and communicative, and genuinely concerned about the well-being of my son. All felony criminal sexual assault charges were dropped thanks to Marcel’s relentless pursuit of truth and his articulate defense. Later the case came back to haunt my son, as he was a student at OU. The college was pursuing him under Title 9, because the alleged assault happened on campus. Again, Marcel and his team provided the best representation available, the outcome was “no expulsion”. While many other young men have been expelled from universities over claims of assault, Marcel was able to prove the case to the college. This was a rare win for innocent young men everywhere, ruined by today’s ‘woke’ culture in a highly charge political atmosphere. I highly recommend Marcel for anyone in need of legal counsel. He cares about his clients, works tirelessly, provides wise counsel, and wins.

Marcel is an excellent attorney. After consulting with several attorney, two of which would not take my case because it was in a notoriously difficult county, I decided to hire Marcel, who came highly recommended by other attorneys. Marcel was an excellent listener and discussed at length the merits ...of my case. I appreciated his candor, experience, and attention to detail. Marcel was prompt and responsive. Because of his experience, expertise, and reputation in the legal community, Marcel was able to persuade the prosecutor to dismiss my case. I received the best outcome possible.

My Son picked up several felony charges & we knew we had to get someone to represent him who would give it their best shot, After talking to a few attorneys things still looked hopeless, A Family friend referred us to Marcel & honestly I’m so thankful for that referral! He was straight forward from d...ay one, he made no false promises, he gave us his word that he would do his best to get the best outcome & he did just that, he did an outstanding job, the end result was much better than we expected it to be. When I left that courtroom I cried tears of joy. Whenever I would call marcel if he was unavailable he would always reach back out to me in timely fashion, he would also keep us informed on whats next, Marcel is very honest, Professional & he take his job very serious, his demeanor is calm & he shows Confidence even when he’s up against a big task. Marcel is an awesome attorney & I will most definitely use him again

I was wrongly accused and charged with a crime that could have meant time behind bars, probation and a record that would have haunted me the rest of my life. Hiring a good Lawyer is important, but finding and retaining a Great Lawyer like Marcel meant all the difference in the World. Trust and Patien...ce on my part and hard work and professionalism on Marcel's got me to where I am today. No trial. No jail time. No probation. No record. My case was dismissed! I received the very best outcome possible. Marcel cared, and it showed. He worked weekends on my case and was always easily accessible thru out the entire process. He explained things thoroughly each step of the way. I believe his experience made the difference. Thank you, Marcel
