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.

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.

I was shocked and frustrated recently when I tried to find a criminal lawyer after being arrested for a Class C misdemeanor. As though spending even one minute in the city jail was not punishment enough, none of the attorneys I contacted would speak directly to me, even though I was actively trying ...to pay them money to represent me. Instead, I was forced to try to explain my worries and concerns regarding my case to receptionists and legal assistants, all of whom were dismissive and obviously did not care. With my impending court date fast approaching and still without the benefit of speaking to an actual lawyer, I was lucky to locate Mr. Bennett's contact information on the internet. I called a little after 8:00 in the morning, and was able to speak with him immediately about my case, at length, even though he generally handles cases much more serious than mine. If you have been arrested and need a lawyer, no matter how trivial you think your case may be, you should hire Mark Bennett. Being accused of a crime is a serious problem, and it requires the help of a knowledgeable professional. Having your lawyer listen to your concerns and allay your fears is priceless, and Mark was able to do both for me.

I hired Mark to represent me on a Felon in possession of a weapon charge. This guy was very good. He was always on top of things invovling my case. This guy plays no games. Mark would always talk to prosecutors anytime we went into the courtroom together. Mark gathered all proper evidence on behalf o...f my case and then put it into a package and sent it directly to the Grand Jury. The Grand Jury NO-BILLED my case. I did not even have to go back to court. I only had two court dates with this guy. He really impressed me. It is like the case never even existed. I was also on parole so I was very nervous. Mark even referred me to a very good parole attorney. I was so nervous thinking I was going to go to trial. Two Police officers word against mine. You know how that is. Mark got this thing taken care of without even having to go to trial. Like I said the Grand Jury gave me a NO-BILL. They would not even pursue the case. I have already told my friends about Mark Bennett. He always answered my phone calls when I called him and also answered any questions I had. He also got my i-phone back that disappeared when the police took me into custody. I would definitely recommend hiring this attorney.
