About Mark
Biography
My name is Mark L. Scott and I am the managing attorney of Mark Scott Law Group, PLLC, a premier law firm in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area where I practice personal injury involving car and truck accidents and criminal defense involving DWI, assaults, and drug charges. I take great pride in trying cases before a jury as I have tried over 100 criminal & civil jury trials to verdict. I find there is always a solution to any problem big or small, and my clients expect nothing but the best out of me. With my experience as a former felony prosecutor for the Dallas County District Attorney's Office and my track record in trying so many cases before a jury, I am able to find an angle in any given situation.
I am honored to announce that I have been selected to the Texas Super Lawyer Rising Stars list again in 2022!
