Top Notch Defense Work

Mr. Falcon is one of the most skilled and knowledgeable criminal defense attorneys in Texas today. At the same time, he is genuinely concerned for his clients' well being and plans their defense around their overall needs, as he recently did for me. I am professionally licensed in Texas, and I was st...opped unlawfully for felony DWI in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area. Needless to say, conviction was not an option, and Mr. Falcon knew it. He dropped everything that he was doing and drove straight to the jail as soon as visitation was open to discuss the procedures going forward with me, and met with me as soon as I was able to bond out. From then, he successfully prevented my driver's license from being suspended, and then was able to root out irregularities in the police investigation of my arrest that ultimately resulted in full dismissal of the criminal charges against me. My ability to work is no longer under threat, and my peace of mind restored, all thanks to Mr. Falcon's legal acumen. He certainly embodies the phrase 'Attorney and Counselor at law' and I would recommend him to anyone under the thumb of the State

Honest and straightforward representation

Mark has help me with criminal issues and family law. He got my DWI 2nd dismissed and ultimately expunged. In my multiple needs for representation Mark was always honest, straightforward and most importantly available when I needed him. When I needed Mark on multiple fronts he helped me more than I c...an explain in this paragraph. If you need representation Mark is the guy to go to.

Wonderful lawyer.

I could not have asked for better representation than what Mark provided. He made me feel comfortable during the entire process by conveying clear, realistic goals. The felony charge against me was dismissed because of Mark’s knowledge of law and professionalism.

The Attorney's Attorney!

I was referred by an attorney friend of mine who had gotten into similar DWI trouble as I had in Dallas County. My attorney friend used Mark Falcon on his own cases and said Mark is "the attorney for the attorneys." This certainly proved so in my case, as Mr. Falcon got my resisting arrest charge d...ismissed and minimized the penalties of my DWI charge. There may be less costly costly DWI defenders out there (and there certainly are more costly ones!) but I doubt any can exceed the value "bang for the buck" provided by Mr. Falcon. Good luck to everyone!

Solid Counsel

I have used Mark's services on more than a couple of occasions, on different legal matters. And each and every time, he has been prompt, well organized, and confident. His respect and knowledge for the various aspects of law is not only impressive but comforting.

"Mark has been a personal friend of mine for many years, and I have gone with him to court several times on criminal matters. He always is able to assess the client's best course of action and plot a course to arrive at the best possible outcome. Whenever I receive a criminal referral, I ask myself if the case is beyond my skillset, and if it is, pick up the phone and call Mark."
