I was fortunate to find Mark Bennett. I felt like crap after receiving an arrest warrant for a collision I wasn't even involved in. No matter how innocent I was, 'probable cause' means the county thinks I am guilty and up to 6 months in jail is possible. Even if jail time is unlikely, who wants to ga...mble with it? A more likely outcome would be a plea bargain for probation. How could I agree to that when I did nothing wrong? I would rather risk a conviction and even jail time than plead guilty or no contest. I believe some lawyers prefer plea bargain because it is quick and easy and limits damage. But in my case it means accepting punishment for a crime I did not commit. Fortunately Mark saw it my way. Mark listened carefully to my story and asked many questions to ensure he understood the sequence of events I described. The part I like best about Mark's way of handling the case is that he accepted it for a fixed fee (flat rate). To me, the importance of flat rate is that presumably the prosecution knows that not only do I have the means to finance a jury trial defense, but I have already paid for one. Be sure to read every word of Mark Bennett's web site, along with his blog. You will find many answers as well as useful advice. I am convinced Mark puts his beliefs about criminal justice way above personal gain (read his blog to see why). Mark really is a low volume lawyer. I dealt directly with him. He did not make any mistakes, and he was polite when I made mistakes. Though I did a huge amount of work to gather evidence of my innocence, Mark obtained two key items that were not possible for a private citizen to obtain. With any lawyer, I would suggest doing as much leg work and ordinary investigation for your case as possibly. No lawyer is magic. Provide material and let the lawyer decide what to use. I was prepared to give Mark a good review even if the outcome was less than perfect. Even if you are completely guilty, you need the best lawyer possible. I watched people get 6 months jail time for personal use of marijuana, something completely legal in other parts of the country. Oh, and the outcome for my case? DISMISSED! Thank you Mark.

When I first learned that I was in a lot of trouble and needing a lawyer, I searched for top defense attorneys in Houston. As soon as I found Mr.Bennett I knew he was the one for me. I called him the second I got out of court and was able to speak to him directly right away. From the very first time ...I sat down in his office I knew I had made the right choice hiring him. He took very good care of me and my case from start to finish. He listened to everything I had to say and kept in touch with me constantly. He was so aggressive with the prosecution that after we decided to go to trial, they dismissed my case simply because they knew they couldn't beat us. He did everything he could for me and if it wasn't for him I'd probably be stuck with probation right now. Thanks to Mark, I am free of all this nonsense. I will definitely be calling him if I am ever in need of another defense attorney. Mark is more than a lawyer that you hire, he treats you like a friend that he genuinely cares about. In my opinion that is very important when choosing an attorney. He was very informative, and was behind me 100% with whatever decisions I made. I am truly grateful for everything he has done for me, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of an amazing lawyer.

Mark has helped me in so many ways...He is the best I ever seen and had...mark puts his all into his work!!He will be on time to court and let you know what's going on and will fight to the end..He will never sell a person out like plenty other lawyers I know..he will be by you're side like a father ...would be by his son..thanks Mark Bennett for all that you do..your are The Best...thanks again..
