When it's your life bet you life he is here for you

changed with a felony dwi with endangerment to child under 15 serious conviction must of the time people do 2/15 years state day for a day. I have a great job in the medical field. I have three beautiful daughters that mean everything to me and I lived with an abusive husband that I couldn't and woul...dn't leave my babies with. To even think my babies would have to be without me and be with their dad is enough pain we've already endured enough pain. what should I do, where do I go? I went to Mark Thiessen. I will never regret the day that I found him it was the most relief that I had ever felt since the minute that I walked out of the Harris county jail. He treated me like family like his baby sister. I needed that everybody had to earn their backs against me thinking the worst when I knew what happen truly was an accident. when I talk to Mark he knew that he could do something to help me and it wasn't like everybody else who felt or was against it was hard to hear that they knew that I would lose my kids to hear there dad was so great and I didn't need to be around my babies I was down so low because I knew it wasn't true but the fact is I had a charge that was so real and so bad. I found Mark and I found hope and whatever they did could hurt me because they were wrong. I went to court over four months waiting on my blood work to comeback. Staying positive while everyone tried to make things worse. I had the best attorney on my side and if he wasn't there his partner was with me I wasn't alone. I could call anytime and anything I needed from them they provided for me. So like every review you've read before saying he's the best it's true he's the best and if you do want your life back than you know what to do. I promise you this will be the best move you ever make. It's worth every dollar I had even if it takes thing the rest of my life to pay my father back at least I have a life a chance to do that now. I may not have got my charges dropped but I only have a misdemeanor DWI no jail time one year probation no suspended license no breathing machine in my car or at home. thank you Mark Thiessen and I'm sure my babies thank you even more. All I can tell you is that Mark cares and I wouldn't be writing this if I didn't care I'm letting you know you to can feel at ease with choosing him as your attorney and make this process a lot easier knowing that you do have somebody on your side and everything will work out thanks for your time.

2nd DWI Charge - Boom, Case Dismissed

I was facing a 2nd DWI charge and wanted nothing but the best attorney to represent me (even if it meant paying for the best). I did what everybody else does when looking to hire a high caliber attorney with a proven track record - i.e., asked around, spoke with other attorneys in the know, searched... online, reviewed client reviews / ratings, etc. I narrowed the search down to three attorneys, and needless to say I chose Mark Thiessen. Best decision ever made as sometimes it's all about "who" you know vs. "what" you know or others tell you. I highly recommend Mark. I advise anyone else looking for the best attorney to stop their search and contact Mark immediately to represent them. You don't have to take my word for it. Take the word of several other attorney's I know who said they would hire Mark (hands down, all day long) if their kids or family member were charged with DWI. Or, take the word of the court, who commented that I had one of the state's top attorney's represent me. Boom, case is over and I'm moving on with my life (and have Mark's number on speed dial)...

Mark Thiessen saved my life and career from evil wife

I wanted to thank Mark Thiessen for all of his help. He is truly an excellent lawyer with a natural desire to win and his aggression in the court room is amazing. If you want your case to be dismissed or strike fear in the prosecution Mark is the right lawyer to hire. He is the best lawyer in houston... by far and he has many great years ahead of him. My wife made a fake charge against me to support her divorce case and Mark was able to expose her for the conartist she is. The jury was very convinced by Mark and the prosecution had no chance after 10 minutes into the trial. I thank god I met him and I will definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get charges against them reversed. Mark is extremely professional and organized and he will fight for you no matter what.

Best Lawyer Ever Hands Down

Was arrested for DWI and was referred to Mark for help. He stood by me the entire time, and one day before trial, he got the case dismissed! He is the absolute best lawyer ever, and he has the most ethics and stand up personality there is. I cannot say enough great things about Mark, and I appreciate... all he has done for me in my time of need.

.15 Blood test dwi turned tinto a Reckless driving Plea.

I looked around on AVVO and talked to various lawyers but none struck the competency level I needed to win my case. I spoke to Mark in his office and after talking with him for 15 minutes he was sincere about the chances of winning and gave me a 33% probabllity. Even with such a small chance, fightin...g my dwi case he gave everything in his power during my trial that the judge decided to plea for a dwi no jail. Mark hammered away and gave his all and the sentence got reduced to reckless driving. Mark is probably one of the most competent lawyers I've met and if you are thinking of going to trial and want a chance to win you need someone who will look at all the details and present them in a clear and concise manner. Thank you Mark you're the best!
