Mr. Bennett is caring, gives personal attention to his clients; he's simply the best.

Our family has counted our blessings for Mark Bennett many times. We asked that he be our son’s attorney during a time and crisis when we did not know what to do. Our son was falsely accused of a crime while on active military duty in Texas. We (his parents) are from Indiana. We are just a “r...egular” mid-west family comprised of teachers, social workers and college students. We had no idea where to turn or what to do. I prayed that we would find someone who could be there for our son and guide us through all of that horror. It was very difficult, as we were half way across the country when our son was going through the most difficult time of his life. Mark was the answer to that prayer. We called him; HE answered the phone. I worked as a legal assistant for five years prior to teaching; attorneys do not normally answer the phone. In fact, most often they do not even return their own phone calls. I knew early-on that Mark was a good person and that he would do whatever he could to help us. He took care of our son in a way that no other attorney could have. He treated him with dignity and respect through the entire process of completely clearing him from the entire legal mess. Our son went through hell during that period of time; Mr. Bennett made things bearable. Our son was able to continue his service to his country during this difficult time, serving two tours of duty – one in Iraq and one in Afghanistan – during both of which he saved many lives. Mr. Bennett always kept in touch, answered e-mails, returned phone calls and worked hard to make sure that everything went smoothly. He was kind and considerate and served us in a manner that made us feel that he cared about our son and his future. He also helped two very worried, far-away parents believe that everything was going to be OK. Everything he did for our family is priceless.

The Best Lawyer in Houston!

"People helping people." This is the motto of DWI defense attorney Mark Bennett, and I can tell you from my experience he is true to his word. When I began my search for an attorney, I didn't even know where to begin. I stumbled across Mark's website, and after a few meetings with him I realized m...y prayers were answered. His motto was the first thing that caught my eye. I wanted an attorney who would see me as a person and not judge me. An attorney who would fight for me, listen when I had questions, and offer advice in return. An attorney who would answer my calls and emails, or meet with me should more questions arise, and someone who truly believed in helping people. I can confidently say, Mark was that attorney. He is professional, personable, and committed to his clients. I immediately felt I was in good hands when I retained Mark, and it turns out I was right. My case was dismissed recently thanks to the help of Mark Bennett. He is truly a man of the people.

Outstanding Attorney, Outstanding Results!

With so many names to choose from, my careful research led to my decision to hire Mark W. Bennett. It was the best decision I could have made. My case was a high-profile, difficult one, taking twists and turns unforeseen by me. The media became involved and in addition, my professional licensing and... career was on the line. Mark was always one step ahead of the turns and very prepared to face the many different angles brought about by my case. He is an exceptionally smart lawyer. Another crucial point was my level of comfort and trust gained by this attorney. I faced some of the darkest hours and days of my life, but lived through them with the help of Mark Bennett. He made my personal case “our” personal case and never left me alone, uninformed in the shadows. My expectations for the outcome were high and Mark delivered. While I hope to not need his professional services again, I consider him a true friend and would not hesitate to recommend Mark W. Bennett to anyone. He would be my first and only call.

Mark Bennett is highly recommended by this lawyer

Unfortunately sometimes lawyers even need to hire other lawyers to defend themselves. Mark is definitely a "lawyer's lawyer", which is the highest compliment in my book to any lawyer, because if you can successfully represent, defend and maintain the respect of another "know-it-all-lawyer", you have ...achieved a certain level of excellence in professional competence and courtesy. In my opinion Mark went far beyond his duty to defend me as his client and was able to get the charges dismissed before trial. He was very responsive and communicative, even to my sometimes "dumb" questions. He didn't just assume that I knew the law, he explained it to me, listened to me and kept me centered in a non-condescending manner (even when I was "beating a dead horse to death" or diverging onto paths unknown or irrelevant). You should also check out his blog www.defendingpeople.com. Thank you again, Mark. Keep up the good work for us people!
