Creative, Competant, Absolutely the Best!

I was falsely accused of a crime last year. I knew I would have to go head to head with the arresting officers, so I called Mark Bennett. Mark tore the case apart, creatively gathering evidence that proved that the officers were in the wrong. I was very nervous about going to trial, but Mark reassu...red me every time I spoke to him. He was always available to me. At every reset, Mark discussed points of the case with the prosecutors, giving them hints about the defense he was preparing. Finally on my court date, the prosecutor dismissed for lack of evidence. Whew! No trial! Mark’s associates got me out of jail quickly, won ancillary cases, and dug through records and witnesses to gather the evidence we needed to prevail. I keep his card in my purse, and have recommended him to all my friends and family. In this uncertain world, it is a comfort to have such a creative, competent attorney on my side. Mark Bennett truly is a rock star!

When You Need Representation in a criminal matter, contact Mark Bennett

You never think about hiring a defense attorney. Then a situation occurs in which you must get legal representation. So, instead of obsessing about how this happened or what could have happened differently...you need to calm down and research local attorneys. Mr. Bennett's name was one of the fi...rst to come up after an online search (and hours of the above mentioned obsessing). Please read the reviews of previous clients. His reputation speaks for itself. Compared to others, the charges my partner faced were rather mundane but no less serious. I knew that if these charges held, it could harm future employment/business opportunities. After calling Mr. Bennett (you speak directly to him and not a secretary), we set up an appointment and discussed the case. He explained all options and we felt he was a great advocate and the best chance for success. Dealing with the Harris County justice system was a slow and sometimes frustrating process and Mr. Bennett kept us informed/tried to decrease our anxiety. Finally, a week ago, we received the results we wanted! It was such a relief to not have this dark cloud hanging over us. I can't thank Mr. Bennett enough for his time, expertise, and flexibility. I would recommend Mark Bennett to anyone facing criminal charges (state or federal). He is a true advocate and that's exactly what you need when facing any of the above charges/situations. If you or a family member is arrested...remain calm, visit Mr. Bennett's website and follow his advice on how to comport yourself in certain situations (even if you're not arrested, read it, it helps)...read the reviews on this site...and call him.

Reputation speaks for itself...

If you ever find yourself or a loved one facing charges (misdemeanor or felony/state or federal) call Mark Bennett. When I found myself in the above mentioned situation, I spent hours researching lawyers online. Mr. Bennett's name kept coming up. I read all the reviews here and then I looked at hi...s website. Frankly, I wish I had visited his website before because he offers the best legal advice anyone can take for free. So, when you find yourself or someone you love under arrest, try to be calm, tell the person under arrest to also remain calm, and contact Mark. Do not spend hours obsessing over why the situation happened or how it could have been different. The best thing you can do is arm yourself with the best attorney you can find and I believe Mr. Bennett fits the bill. Of course, I found Mr. Bennett only after the above mentioned hours of obsessing/stressing. He is the ultimate advocate for anyone facing criminal charges. He treats you like a human being and without judgment. All options are explored and it's ultimately the client's choice on which path to choose. I appreciated his candor, patience, and flexibility with my situation. I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Bennett again or recommend his services to others. We got the outcome we pursued from the beginning and that's the best anyone could ask for.

Houston's Greatest Defense Attorney Professional and Compassionate

Mark recently defended me in a Federal Criminal Case. I have worked with many Lawyers in the past on Criminal and Non-Criminal issues; for myself and other friends and family. None have been as impressive as Mark Bennett. Mark was extremely responsive to me and the court members. He worked very h...ard to give me the best plan of action in the beginning of my case. Mark's attention to detail and compassion set him apart from attorneys that don't really care about anything more than your money. His brilliant thoughts and knowledge of law gives him an edge above the rest. The greatest thing I noticed is he always gave me a sort of scale to weigh decisions against. My personal feelings and emotions would have led me down a horrible path but Mark always gave me a realistic probability of outcome. Marks attention to detail and hard work ultimately resulted in an unbelievable outcome.

An Ally and Advocate

Unfortunately, what many would consider a minor incident turned into a major ordeal. Mr. Bennett was quick to help. He was professional, knowledgable and trustworthy. He was able to resolve our issue in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend his services. He is a trusted ally and advocate.
