This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Brilliant!

Hired him as my defense attorney years ago for a couple felony charges I had picked up for being at the wrong place , at the wrong time, with the wrong people. He got the entire thing dismissed and everything removed from my history. Never showed anything of the incident on my criminal history from... that point on. He gets your case reset several several times, but it’s worth it . He knows what he’s doing, just trust his method.

Mrs Takalo

Mack McInnis handled my case of police intrapment perfectly. He proved the case. He listens to his clients. Thanks Mack

Legal giant with humility

I've known this man for fifteen years. I used him personally to advise me in several legal situations. His advice was priceless. I've never seen a lawyer work harder with more dedication and persistence than this man. He truly embraces the concept of seeking justice for all. He has done over 300... criminal trials, and his reputation is well known in the courtrooms of Houston. I have not met a more ethical, competent, and dedicated attorney anywhere in my life.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
