Marcel Sergio Benavides

Marcel helped me through my entire drinking and driving case. He answered every question I had, and made me feel confident and comfortable that everything would be fine. He fought for me to get the best deal possible, and never let me down. He was not only a lawyer, but a counselor to me, showing me ...the best route to take during my arraignment and sentencing. I would recommend him to anyone needing an attorney who is willing to make time and take action on your behalf. I spent my money wisely with obtaining him, he gave me a great deal! He's a definite 5 star attorney.

I was charged with retail fraud 2nd degree. Once I called Marcel and talked to him he said that it would be a couple times of court with possible chance of probation and it might have to stay on my record because of my age. First court date he went back to talk to the prosecutor and the judge actuall...y said that Marcel got me the best deal possible. I ended up getting 6 months probation, having it wiped off my record after completion, and having to pay some fines. I would recommend Marcel to anyone. He good at what he does.

I was very luckily that my court appointed attorney was Marcel. I was skeptical at first being an appointed attorney, but he proved me wrong. He fought for me and the truth. When the odds were not in my favor he did the unimaginable and got my case dismissed. I went from a drug possession charge (fel...ony) to a free man with no felony conviction. He dived into my case and provided evidence that the police were in the wrong. He took his time and researched the case. Marcel was very patient, professional and knowledgeable during the whole case. I have nothing, but good things to say about him. I highly recommend Marcel. He highly experienced and will fight for you!

I hired Marcel in May of this year (2015) to assist me in a criminal and civil matter resulting from an arrest by my local police department, and the resulting injuries I sustained during the arrest. The reason I chose Marcel was because of his history as a civil rights lawyer. He also has a deep un...derstanding of how police departments operate, and how they react to, and defend against charges of police misconduct. I felt like Marcel always had my best interest in mind, and that every step of my defense was carefully calculated and well thought out. All criminal charges were dropped against me.

I retained Marcel Benavides to represent my minor child in a police brutality case. Marcel was the perfect choice! He was very passionate in dealing with my son and making sure my son knew what was going on and what to expect at every turn. Marcel was able to get my son a fair and reasonable settleme...nt in a timely manor, he also went above and beyond his "job" in talking to my son to help him face some emotional issues he was facing due to the police brutality. No matter what your reason for needing a lawyer is and no matter what age you are, I can only say...CALL MARCEL he will work hard for you!!
